		This seasonality means that the female boto's high energy demands near birth and during early lactation are met by increased availability of fish driven from flooded forests by falling water levels and forced back into, and concentrated in, the remaining waterways.
		Seasonal movements of botos are related to the migration of fish and the annual flooding cycle of the river.
		Botos have undefended home ranges, and seasonal movements are probably slight shifts in the boundaries of the core area.

		Boto in the Beni system may, in fact, constitute a separate species (da Silva 1994) although, at present, a single species is recognised.
		The boto is the most common river dolphin and population densities appear to be relatively high throughout much of its range (IWC, 2000).
		These are either entirely incidental (entanglement) or to a greater or lesser extent deliberate, as fishermen are reportedly poisoning botos with baited fish, to limit net depredation, and also shooting and otherwise killing animals found in or near to nets.
