Personal memory by Zenaida Paricahua Barrios
1980 • Lake Titicaca, Peru
“The fresh water fish called the suche has practically disappeared because the people fish for the daily meals. Now, only the mauri exists, which is from the same species as the suche, but the mauri is small—10cm.Rivers in the state of Puno that were rich with water and are now a type of stream. For example, the Cabamillas River.”
