AB  - The design, development and calculation of the
Ecological Footprint are a universally accepted
concept to measure and dimension the impact of
human activities on natural resources. This article is
the result of the investigation conducted at the Zoo of
Cali (Colombia), in which an instrument was designed,
applied and validated to determine the ecological
footprint of the exhibition areas the different species of
animals between July and November 2009. This is the
first experience in Colombia to measure the footprint
in a Zoo, which regards this service as a unique and
exceptional activity. The development of this trail
involved the lifting of eco maps and operational
processes of each exhibition, as well as evaluating the
types of resources consumed and the amount of waste
they generate, to proceed to the calculation of the
overall impact. The article is accompanied by an Excel
tool, available for download at the site of the magazine
