Resumen


Los desastres no afectan a todos por igual. La vulnerabilidad de cada individuo se construye social y culturalmente. Si conceptos como clase social, edad o etnicidad resultan importantes, pertenecer a una determinada especie es determinante ante un desastre. Este trabajo aborda el concepto de vulnerabilidad de los animales residentes en refugios españoles, en situaciones de emergencia y desastre. Para ello reconstruye etnográficamente las historias de 4 refugios de animales durante el paso de la borrasca “Filomena” por España, a principios de 2021. El artículo enfatiza la necesidad de incluir a los no humanos en la narrativa humanitaria, así como en el desarrollo de tecnologías, como leyes, protocolos de actuación y planes de respuesta, que garanticen su seguridad, promoviendo una responsabilidad tanto de la administración pública como de las entidades privadas. A partir del estudio de caso de la borrasca Filomena en España, este trabajo pretende evidenciar la vulnerabilidad de los animales de compañía residentes en refugios y protectoras, abriendo una vía para su incorporación en la gestión de emergencias y desastres de cualquier índole, que resulte aplicable a todas las regiones del planeta, con especial foco en Latino América, Caribe y España.
