Full textAbstract:
Ethnozoology is the study of the relationship between humans and animals. Ethnozoological studies are closely related to culture and local knowledge and their interactions with the surrounding environment. The Sumba people with the marapu belief are known to have close relationships with various types of animals. This study aims to identify the types of animals used by the people of three villages in Sumba. The results showed that 23 species of animals were identified as part of the ethnozoology of the three villages. Species of animals related to ethnozoology can refer to several species scientifically. The forms of utilization by the community are as part of traditional and religious rituals (five species), traditional medicine (five species), consumption (six species), artistic values (seven species), and mystical values and omens (seven species). Ethnozology in Sumba society is closely related to Marapu beliefs.

We investigate the trends of the scientific publication on ethno-zoological studies by using the word 'Ethnozoology' in the Web of Science database. We associate the number of published documents with the timescale, publication sources, countries and affiliations, authors, and most frequent words in the publications. We found 177 documents published between 1967 and 2019, with a significant increase over the last 10 years. The Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine, Journal of Ethnopharmacology, Indian Journal of Traditional Knowledge hosted 39% of the publications. Brazil represented by the Universities: Paraíba State, Paraíba Federal and Pernambuco Rural Federal led 44% of the publications. Alves RRN was the most prominent author, maintaining a high index of publications since 2005. Conservation, animals, knowledge, remedies, fishing communities and folk medicine were the most frequent words in the publications. Despite, ethnozoology to be a traditional science, with more than 50 years since its first published study; Scientific knowledge about ethnozoology has been concentrated in the last 10 years, being mainly developed by Brazilians, who have published in international impact journals. The most relevant words demonstrated that knowledge about the use of animals as fishing resources and folk medicine has major implications for the conservation of biodiversity.

Full textAbstract:
In Jember's culture, dove symbolizes peace and purity. Tota'an tradition captures attention as a cultural symbol that fosters a sense of brotherhood, connecting communities. This study delves into the role of local culture in strengthening interpersonal relationships, transcending beyond cultural expressions. Using ethnozoology, it explores the perspectives and roles of doves in the Tota'an tradition. The research focuses on examining the Tota'an tradition in three lenses: ethnozoology, local culture, and Islam. It seeks to understand how Islamic values, such as solidarity and compassion, are reflected in Tota'an, and how these values are connected to ethnozoological aspects, particularly the symbolism of doves. The result presents the exploration of the analysis of Tota'an's impact in the Islamic context. It emphasizes the intricate balance formed by local culture, serving as a bridge between Islam and ethnozoology. It also provides profound insights into the interconnected relationship of ethnozoology, local culture, and Islam through Tota'an. By following a specific sequence in examining the tradition, it reveals deeper layers of meaning, enhancing our understanding of the mutual reinforcement of values within the context of the vibrant local culture. By preserving and understanding the cultural and religious values in Tota'an, the Jember community can maintain their cultural identity while strengthening social cohesion.
Dalam budaya Jember, merpati dianggap sebagai simbol perdamaian dan kesucian. Tradisi Tota’an, menarik perhatian masyarakat, sebagai simbol budaya yang menghubungkan masyarakat dalam semangat persaudaraan, sehingga tradisi ini perlu dilestarikan. Penelitian ini menggali peran budaya lokal dalam memperkuat hubungan interpersonal, melampaui sekadar ekspresi budaya semata. Dengan menggunakan etnozoologi, penelitian ini menjelajahi perspektif dari merpati sebagai tradisi Tota'an. Penelitian ini fokus menguji tradisi Tota'an melalui tiga lensa: etnozoologi, budaya lokal, dan Islam. Tujuannya memahami bagaimana nilai-nilai Islam, seperti solidaritas dan welas asih, tercermin dalam tradisi Tota'an, dan bagaimana nilai-nilai tersebut terhubung dengan aspek etnozoologi, khususnya simbolisme merpati. Hasil penelitian menyajikan pemaparan analisis dampak Tota'an dalam konteks Islam. Studi ini menekankan keseimbangan kompleks yang terbentuk oleh budaya lokal, berfungsi sebagai jembatan antara Islam dan etnozoologi. Penelitian ini memberikan wawasan mendalam tentang hubungan terkait etnozoologi, budaya lokal, dan Islam melalui tradisi Tota'an. Dengan mengikuti urutan spesifik dalam mengkaji tradisi, penelitian ini mengungkap lapisan makna yang lebih dalam, meningkatkan pemahaman tentang penguatan nilai-nilai yang saling berhubungan dalam konteks budaya lokal yang dinamis. Dengan melestarikan dan memahami nilai-nilai budaya dan agama dalam Tota'an, masyarakat Jember dapat menjaga identitas budaya mereka serta memperkuat koherensi sosial.

The subject matter of this study is animal names in the Hebrew Bible. Centring on a corpus-linguistic analysis of every word for an animal or type of animal used within the text, it sheds light on the methods and paradigms of categorisation used by the ancient Hebrews and thus on previously unknown aspects of their worldview. The discipline of cognitive linguistics, in particular the prototype theory of categories, is used to interpret the various types and levels of animal classification; a theory on spatiality as the main basis for classification is developed, and new light is shed on a wrongly undervalued theory of cleanness/uncleanness. This theoretical work is also applied to certain texts to prove its usefulness in helping with the translation and interpretation of problematic words and passages.Thesis (DLitt)--University of Pretoria, 2017.

Studies on the knowledge and use of natural resources are a crucial tool to identify the way each individual observe and use the environment they live. Each person has a proper knowledge of the environment, and this knowledge can vary by gender, age, housing conditions and schooling. In this context, this study aims to verify and list the species of mammals used in two communities located in the Araripe Area of Environmental Protection – APA/Araripe, verify possible significant difference in knowledge regarding the use of mammals according to sex and age group, identify the diseases treated with zootherapics and obtain information about mammalian parts use as medicine and about medicine preparation. The study was conducted in two communities located in the APA/Araripe: Sítio Betânia community and Caldas community, both belonging to the city of Barbalha (Ceará, Brazil). The data collection was performed through semi-structured forms, where the interviewed were randomly selected through stratified random sampling, so that all individuals in the community had the same chance of being selected. For this stratification we considered sex and three age groups based on the classification criteria of the Ministry of Health: adolescents (12-19 years), adults (20-59 years) and elderly (above 60 years). A total of 229 interviews were conducted between October and November of 2012. We verify that men know and use more the mammals as zootherapics and as food resource than women, while for the religious mystic use there were no significant differences between genders. In relation to age, it was observed that adults know and use more mammals as zootherapics and the elderly use more as food resource. This study reveals that the practice of using mammals still persist even in communities inserted in conservation units where laws are stricter. Probably, traditions, poverty and the lack of more rigorous inspections lead to such conducts. Thus, the development of a rigorous management plan considering social and cultural aspects of the local communities is highly recommended.
Estudos sobre o conhecimento e uso dos recursos naturais vêm a ser uma crucial ferramenta para identificar a forma como cada indivíduo observa e utiliza o ambiente em que vive. Cada pessoa apresenta um próprio conhecimento do ambiente, e esse conhecimento pode variar em função do sexo, idade, condições de moradia e grau de escolaridade. Nesse contexto este trabalho apresenta os seguintes objetivos: Inventariar as espécies de mamíferos utilizadas e conhecidas em duas comunidades inseridas dentro da Área de Proteção Ambiental Araripe – APA/Araripe; verificar se existe diferença significativa no conhecimento com relação ao uso de mamíferos de acordo com o sexo e a faixa etária; identificar os tipos de enfermidades tratadas pelos zooterápicos e obter informações com relação às partes dos mamíferos utilizados para fins medicinais e ao modo de preparo dos medicamentos. O trabalho foi realizado em duas comunidades inseridas na APA/Araripe, comunidade do Sítio Betânia e comunidade do Caldas, ambas pertencentes a cidade de Barbalha (Ceará, Brasil). As entrevistas foram realizadas através de formulários semi-estruturados. Todas as casas habitadas das duas comunidades foram visitadas, sendo entrevistadas no máximo duas pessoas por residência. Tomou-se o cuidado de evitar que o primeiro entrevistado entrasse em contato com o próximo, evitando desta forma que um interferisse nas respostas do outro. Caso houvesse essa interferência a pessoa entrevistada era eliminada da amostragem. A amostragem foi dividida através do sexo e três grupos de idade baseado nos critérios de classificação do Ministério da Saúde do Governo Brasileiro: adolescentes (12 a 19 anos), adultos (20 a 59 anos) e idosos (acima de 60 anos). Foram realizadas 229 entrevistas entre os meses de outubro e novembro de 2012. Sendo verificado que os homens conhecem e utilizam mais os mamíferos como zooterápicos e como recurso alimentar do que as mulheres, enquanto para o uso místico religioso não foi observado diferença significativa entre os gêneros. Com relação às idades, observou-se que os adultos conhecem e utilizam mais os mamíferos como zooterápicos e os idosos como recurso alimentar. Este estudo mostra que a prática do uso de mamíferos ainda persiste mesmo em comunidades inseridas em unidades de conservação onde as leis são mais rigorosas. Provavelmente, tradições enraizadas, pobreza e falta de fiscalizações mais rigorosas levam a tais práticas. Dessa forma, a elaboração de um rigoroso plano de manejo, levando-se em consideração os aspectos sociais e culturais das comunidades locais envolvidas, vem a ser de suma importância.

Full textAbstract:
Rakiura Maori continue a centuries old harvest of titi chicks (sooty shearwater, Puffinus griseus) which is governed primarily by Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK). The sustainability of titi harvesting is of high cultural, social and ecological importance. Some commentators view contemporary use of TEK as insufficient to ensure sustainability because it is no longer intact, too passive, and/or potentially inadequate to meet new ecological and technical challenges. Such assertions have been made in the absence of detailed description of TEK and associated social mechanisms. This thesis describes Rakiura Maori TEK practices and management systems that are in place and asks whether such systems are effective today, and whether they will remain effective in future.
Ecological, social and cultural factors are intertwined in cultural wildlife harvests so the methodology used was a combination of quantitative ecological methods and semi-directive interviews of 20 experienced harvesting elders. The research also used ecological science to evaluate potential harvest monitoring methods and to determine what sets the limits on harvest. These ecological studies focused on harvesting by four families on Putauhinu Island in 1997-1999.
Harvest is divided into two parts. In the first period (�nanao�) chicks are extracted from breeding burrows during daytime. In the second period (�rama�) chicks are captured at night when they have emerged from burrows. Nanao harvest rates only increased slightly with increasing chick densities and birders� harvest rates varied in their sensitivities to changing chick density. Although harvest rates can only provide a general index of population change a monitoring panel, with careful selection of participants, may be the only feasible way to assess population trend and thereby harvest sustainability or the resource�s response to changed management.
Rakiura Maori harvesting practice constitutes common property resource management based on birthright and a system of traditional rules. Protection of island habitat and adult birds, and temporal restricitions on harvest are considered most important. Legislation and a belief system of reciprocity and connection to ancestors and environment aid enforcement of the rules.
Ecological knowledge is learnt through observation, hands-on experience and storytelling. Younger Rakiura Maori now spend less time harvesting which puts pressure on the transmission of knowledge. Paradoxically, use of modern technology for harvesting aids transfer of essential skills because it is easier and faster to learn, thereby contributing to the continuance of a culturally important harvest.
Limits on harvest are passive, with the numbers of chicks taken determined by the time spent harvesting and processing. Processing is more limiting during the rama period. Future innovations that decrease the time to process each chick during rama could greatly increase the total number of chicks caught. Recently introduced motorised plucking machines decrease the time required to pluck each chick. However, on Putauhinu Island, use of plucking machines did not increase the number of chicks harvested, indicating social mechanisms were also limiting. Elders identified changing values between the generations, which may reduce the future strength of social limitations on harvest pressure.
Global climate change may reduce the predicability of traditional knowledge. Rakiura Maori have identified this risk and sought to examine ecological science as a tool to complement traditional knowledge for monitoring harvest sustainability. Climate change, declining tītī numbers and potential changes in technology or markets all threaten the effectiveness of current social limits to harvest. Rakiura Maori have previously shown the ability to adapt and must look to add resilience to their institutions to ensure we keep the titi forever.

Hunting and use of wildlife resources are ancient practices and social, cultural and ecological. In particular in the Brasileiro Northeast, these activities has an important role, since animals play an important socioeconomic role in the region by providing meat and other products to local families and has obvious environmental implications. In this context, research etnozoológicas, the establishment of strategies for wildlife conservation and maintenance of local cultural practices, are undoubtedly of great importance. The objective of this research was to document and characterize the biological and ecological context in which it gives the use of wildlife resources in the municipalities of the São João do Cariri and Cabaceiras, semiarid region of Paraíba. Therefore, we conducted 37 interviews with local hunters, distributed in 24 men and 13 women. The average age of respondents was 51.21 years. The data collected enabled the creation of a list represented by 81 animals, distributed in birds (49), reptiles (19) and mammals (13). All described species were distributed in the categories of use: Food (51%), Estimation (38%), control (25%), Medical (18%), Craft (6%), Ritualistic (4%). The hunting techniques mentioned by respondents were: Shotgun, hook, hunt chase with the use of dog and gun, traps, sangra, Wait, Fojo, Quixó, Assaprão, imitation, Facheado, Visgo, Tracking, Cage for Armadillo, loop to capture small birds and Arataca. Some species have seasonal importance, especially migratory birds in the rainy and mammals and reptiles in times of drought. The interviewees showed concern facing the preservation of local fauna. It is concluded that research activities that register are important because they allow hunting guide jobs under the most exploited species, focused on environmental education in line with human needs and protection of these resources.
A caça e a utilização dos recursos faunísticos são práticas antigas e de importância social, cultural e ecológica. Em especial no Nordeste Brasileiro, estas atividades tem papel relevante, uma vez que animais desempenham importante papel socioeconômico na região, por fornecer carne e outros produtos às famílias locais e tem evidentes implicações ambientais. Nesse contexto, pesquisas etnozoológicas para o estabelecimento de estratégias de conservação da fauna e manutenção das práticas culturais locais, são sem dúvidas de grande importância. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi documentar e caracterizar o contexto biológico e ecológico em que se dá a utilização dos recursos faunísticos nos municípios de São João do Cariri e Cabaceiras, semiárido paraibano. Para tanto foram realizadas 37 entrevistas com caçadores locais, distribuídas em 24 homens e 13 mulheres. A média de idade dos entrevistados foi de 51,21 anos. Os dados colhidos possibilitaram a elaboração de uma listagem representada por 81 animais caçados, distribuídos em aves (49), répteis (19) e mamíferos (13). As espécies catalogadas foram distribuídas nas categorias de uso: Alimentação (51%), Estimação (38%), Controle (25%), Medicinal (18%), Artesanal (6%), Ritualística (4%). As técnicas de caça mencionadas pelos entrevistados foram as seguintes: Espingarda, Anzol, caça de perseguição com uso de cachorro e espingarda, Arapucas, Sangra, Espera, Fojo, Quixó, Assaprão, Arremedo, Facheado, Visgo, Rastreamento, Gaiola pra tatu, laço para capturar aves de pequeno porte e arataca. Algumas espécies possuem importância sazonal, destacando as aves migratórias em épocas de chuvas e mamíferos e répteis em épocas de seca. Os entrevistados revelaram estar preocupados frente à conservação da fauna local. Conclui-se que pesquisas que registrem atividades cinegéticas são importantes porque possibilitam guiar trabalhos sob as espécies mais exploradas, voltadas para a educação ambiental em consonância com as necessidades humanas e proteção a esses recursos.

Previous issue date: 2009-07-22The knowledge concerning the therapeutic properties of animals and plants has been developed by human communities since the times remote and last of generations in generations. As the traditional medicine is intimately related to the natural resources, specifically to the biodiversity, it is more evident that the traditional knowledge associated to the use of the biological resources becomes important for its conservation and durable use. It is still more important in areas as the semi-arid Northeasterner, where the biome Caatinga prevails, which is little studied, above all of the point of ethnobiologic view. It was aimed at to accomplish a rising of the animal species and vegetable employees as medicinal in a rural community of the Queimadas Municipal district, semi-arid of the state of Paraíba, Northeast of Brazil, knowing the several related aspects the those practices. Free interviews were accomplished and applied semi-structured forms to the users of medicinal plants and animals. The value of use of each species and the factor of consent of the informers were calculated. A total of 53 medicinal animals (43 vertebrates and 10 spineless), distributed in 42 families, were mentioned for the treatment of 68 diseases. The animal species more mentioned were Gallus gallus - domestic chicken, and Tupinambis merianae - lizard. A total of 143 plants were mentioned, distributed in 64 families, which are used for the treatment of 88 diseases. The species more mentioned were Anacardium occidentale - purple chestnut and Mentha x villosa-nervata - mint-small. The Breathing Apparel was the isolated organic system with larger number of citations of animals and plants together. Some species of animals and plants threatened of extinction are being used by the community. Studies in pharmacology subsequent will be important for identification of bioactives compositions and therapeutic proofs of the used biological resources. Any conservation strategy should have direct connection with improvement of public health, particular ly for rural communities that have limited access to services of health efficient.
O conhecimento acerca das propriedades terapêuticas de animais e plantas vem sendo desenvolvido por comunidades humanas desde os tempos remotos e passado de gerações em gerações. Como a medicina tradicional está intimamente relacionada aos recursos naturais, especificamente à biodiversidade, é cada vez mais evidente que o saber tradicional associado ao uso dos recursos biológicos torna-se importante para sua conservação e uso duradouro. Torna-se ainda mais importante em áreas como o semiárido nordestino, onde predomina o bioma Caatinga, o qual é pouco estudado, sobretudo do ponto de vista etnobiológico. Objetivou-se, neste estudo realizar um levantamento das espécies animais e vegetais empregados como medicinais em uma comunidade rural do Município de Queimadas, no agreste semi-árido do estado da Paraíba, Nordeste do Brasil, conhecendo os vários aspectos relacionados a essas práticas. Foram realizadas entrevistas livres e aplicados formulários semi-estruturados a usuários de plantas e animais medicinais. Foram calculados o valor de uso de cada espécie e o fator de consenso dos informantes. Um total de 53 animais medicinais (43 vertebrados e 10 invertebrados), distribuídos em 42 famílias, foram citados para o tratamento de 68 doenças. As espécies animais mais citadas foram Gallus gallus - galinha doméstica, e Tupinambis merianae - lagarto. Um total de 143 plantas medicinais foram citadas, distribuídas em 64 famílias, as quais são utilizadas para o tratamento de 88 doenças. As espécies mais citadas foram Anacardium occidentale - cajú-rôxo e Mentha x villosanervata - hortelã-miúda. Doencas do Aparelho Respiratório foi o sistema orgânico isolado com maior número de citações de animais e plantas juntos. Algumas espécies de animais e plantas ameaçadas de extinção estão sendo utilizadas pela comunidade. Estudos farmacológicos posteriores serão importantes para identificação de compostos bioativos e comprovações terapêuticas dos recursos biológicos utilizados. Qualquer estratégia de conservação deve ter conexão direta com melhoria de saúde pública, particularmente para comunidades rurais que têm acesso limitado a serviços de saúde eficientes.

The Brazilian semiarid region has unique characteristics regarding the composition of its biodiversity, being a region of significant importance in several respects both biological and ecological and cultural. The creation and trade of wildlife has been identified as a threat to many species of animals. These practices are constant throughout the semi-arid, despite having legal measures prohibiting many of them. Throughout the world the use of animals for various purposes is quite common, these modes of use are almost always incorporated into the culture and community identity in question. This study, which ethnozoological approach has investigated the different use of wildlife modes in a rural community of a municipality in the Brazilian semiarid region. Our results showed that among the modes of animal use, said the creation of wild birds as pets (n = 16 species), as well as animals used for trade (n = 10 species) and as a nutritional source (n = 7 species). The creation and marketing of wild animals in the region is sometimes illegally and is part of everyday life for people of different socioeconomic levels, part of the cultural identity of communities in the region, even though there are legal measures prohibiting many of these practices . Given the importance of knowledge of the communities for the sustainable use of local fauna biodiversity, such studies can contribute significantly with regard to understanding as is the use of animals in this region of Brazil and its implications for the establishment of educational measures and conservation and wildlife management projects.

A criação e o comércio da fauna silvestre tem sido apontados como uma ameaça para muitas espécies de animais. Estas práticas são constantes em todo o semiárido, mesmo possuindo medidas legais que proíbem muitas delas. Em todo o mundo o uso de animais para diversos fins é bastante comum, estes modos de uso estão, quase sempre, incorporados à cultura e identidade da comunidade em questão. O presente estudo, que possui enfoque etnozoológico, investigou os diferentes modos de uso da fauna em uma comunidade rural de um município do semiárido brasileiro. Nossos resultados mostraram que dentre os modos de uso dos animais, destacou-se a criação de aves silvestres como animais de estimação (n=16 espécies), bem como os animais utilizados para comércio (n= 10 espécies) e como fonte nutricional (n=7 espécies). A criação e a comercialização de animais silvestres na região ocorre, por vezes, de forma ilegal e faz parte do cotidiano de pessoas de diferentes níveis sócio econômicos, fazendo parte da identidade cultural das comunidades da região, mesmo existindo medidas legais que proíbem muitas dessas práticas. Dada a importância do conhecimento das comunidades para o uso sustentável da biodiversidade da fauna local, estudos desta natureza pode contribuir de forma significativa no tocante ao entendimento de como ocorre o uso dos animais nesta região do Brasil e suas implicações para o estabelecimento de medidas educativas e projetos de conservação e manejo da fauna.

historical and current scenario. In Brazil, hunting is widely practiced throughout the territory since ancient times, causing dramatic environmental consequences, although there has never been a comprehensive analysis that addressed this issue at a national level under a conservation perspective. In summary, it is known that the Brazilian hunting is a problem, but no one knows for sure what it is, what its history and what the actual size of the problem. Thus, this research aims to analyze the hunting in Brazil and the historical, socioeconomic and cultural contexts associated with such activity, with the main focus on wildlife involved in different ways to human use, the techniques used for hunting and conservation implications associated with such uses, in a comparative analysis between different biomes. The manuscript was divided into two volumes. The first one deals with the historical aspect. In the Chapter I, the survey of official documents, paintings, accounts of natural history expeditions, scientific chapters, books and papers involving hunting in Brazil were conducted. It was possible to analyze the evolution of the use of the techniques; indigenous and European influences; data on regional extinction of species; preferences of game species for food consumption, among many other factors. In the Chapter II, we realized an historical survey and listed the changes of legislation and the perceptions of the national mass media involving hunting activities to establish if there is a correlation between these factors and what the possible consequences of these changes for wildlife conservation. We demonstrate that this correlation exists and has evolved interdependently. The second volume deals with the current situation and was accomplished through 529 interviews in 25 localities from 12 states and in all Brazilian biomes. The first chapter aimed to inventory, describe and categorize these techniques in all biomes. Moreover, further analysis on the Index of Cultural Significance of these strategies, which were discussed in regional and national levels have been proposed. Altogether, 39 techniques have been documented, described and categorized according to purpose, autonomy, lethality, selectivity of species and abundance of specimens captured. The Chapter II proposes to conduct an inventory of the wildlife hunting related in food purposes of rural communities in localities of all biomes of the country, through interviews and literature review. We documented 344 species, although our estimates indicate that this number could reach more than 525, where 46% are birds, 42% are mammals, 11% are reptiles and 1% is amphibians. The last chapter aimed to point out what is the region historically most impacted by hunting in Brazil, assuming the Northeast region as hypothesis. Data were quantified to calculate the Use of Frequency Value (UFV) and statistically analyzed with data from the biomass of each species cited in each area. The results indicate a national trend of high UFV’s for large species. This pattern is followed in the Amazon, Pantanal, Cerrado and Pampas. In contrast, the areas of the Atlantic Forest and mainly Caatinga, both in Northeastern Brazil, present the reverse of this pattern, indicating depletion and local extinction of large animals. This can be explained by the history of occupation, economic aspects, ecological support capacity, difficulty in livelihood alternatives and specific cultural patterns.
No Brasil, atividades cinegéticas são amplamente realizadas em todo o território e desde períodos remotos, provocando drásticas consequências ambientais, embora nunca tenha havido uma análise abrangente que abordasse esse tema em nível nacional, sob uma óptica conservacionista. Em resumo, sabe-se que a caça brasileira é um problema, mas não se conhece ao certo o que é, qual sua história e qual o tamanho real desse problema no país. Desse modo, a pesquisa tem como objetivo principal analisar as atividades cinegéticas do Brasil e os contextos históricos, socioeconômicos e culturais associados a tais atividades, com foco principal na fauna envolvida em diferentes formas de uso humano, as técnicas de caça utilizadas e as implicações conservacionistas associadas a tais usos, em uma análise comparada entre os diferentes biomas brasileiros. A Tese foi dividida em dois volumes. O primeiro trata do aspecto histórico. No Capítulo I, foi realizado o levantamento de documentos oficiais, pinturas, relatos de expedições naturalistas, além de livros didáticos, artigos de periódicos, livros e capítulos de livros científicos envolvendo as atividades cinegéticas no Brasil. Foi possível analisar a evolução do uso das técnicas; as influências indígenas e europeias; dados sobre extinção regional de espécies; preferências de espécies para consumo alimentar, dentre diversos outros fatores. No Capítulo II, elencamos as mudanças da legislação e das percepções da mídia nacional envolvendo as atividades cinegéticas para estabelecer se há uma correlação entre tais fatores e quais as possíveis consequências dessas mudanças para a conservação da fauna silvestre. Demonstramos que essa correlação existe e que evoluiu de forma interdependente. O segundo volume trata do panorama atual e foi realizado através de 529 entrevistas em 25 localidades, pertencentes a 12 estados em todos os biomas do Brasil. O primeiro capítulo objetivou inventariar, descrever e categorizar essas técnicas em todos os biomas do país. Além disso, foram adaptadas novas análises sobre o Índice de Significância Cultural (ISC) dessas estratégias. Ao todo, 39 técnicas foram documentadas, descritas e categorizadas quanto à finalidade, autonomia, letalidade, seletividade de espécies e abundância de espécimes capturados. O Capítulo II se propôs a realizar um inventário sobre a fauna cinegética relacionada a fins alimentares de comunidades rurais em localidades situadas em todos os biomas do país, através de entrevistas e revisão bibliográfica. Foram documentadas 344 espécies, embora as estimativas apontem que esse número pode atingir mais que 525, sendo 46% aves, 42% mamíferos, 11% répteis e 1% anfíbios. O último capítulo teve como objetivo analisar qual a região historicamente mais impactada pela caça no Brasil, assumindo como hipótese a Região Nordeste. Os dados foram quantificados pelo cálculo do Valor de Frequência de Uso e analisados estatisticamente com os dados da biomassa de cada espécie citada em cada área. Os resultados apontam uma tendência nacional de maior valoração de uso para espécies de grande porte. Esse panorama é seguido na Amazônia, Pantanal, Cerrado e nos Pampas. Em contraste, as áreas de Mata Atlântica do Nordeste e principalmente a área de Caatinga apontam o inverso desse padrão, indicando extinção local e depleção de grandes animais. Isso pode ser explicado através do histórico de ocupação, aspectos econômicos, capacidade de suporte ecológico, dificuldade em alternativas de subsistência e padrões culturais específicos.
