The Uru people have domesticated local animals to assist with producing food and other purposes.
For example, cormorants, waterbirds who catch fish, are kept tethered with wool tied to their feet, so that they can catch fish for human consumption.
Another local bird, the ibis, is domesticated for laying eggs.
Ibis are also butchered for meat.
To control rats on the reed islands, domestic cats are also kept by the Uru islanders.

Some islands also feature ponds inside the island; yet again some of these are lined with a large fishing net and suggest localised Aquaculture.
The primary amount of fish is still caught in the wide open of Lake Titicaca.
