The Lagoa dos Freitas site is characterized as a shellmounds on Holocene dunes and the radiocarbon dates obtained show a chronology with two distinct horizons of occupation, the first between 1.360-1.275 cal. AP and the second between 485-305 cal. AP. With the objective of characterizing the exploitation of animal resources in each period of occupation, this work rea- lized out a zooarcheological study of the vertebrate faunal groups of each horizon, namely 4005 remains for the most recent layer I and 10299 remains for the Layer II , older, adding a total of 14304 analyzed remains. Three classes of vertebrates were identified: fish, mammals and birds. The fish identified are mostly marine catfish of the family Ariidae, snooks and robalos of the family Centropomidae and whitemouth croakers of the family Sciaenidae. The corvina (Micropogonias furnieri) is the most individually abundant specie. For terrestrial fauna, only caviomorphs rodents were identified, Hidrochoerus hydrochaeris and Ctenomis minutus. The results of this study show that there was a more intense exploration of estuarine environments in comparison to terrestrial environments in the areas surrounding the site and, in particular, the development of fishing activities, without significant differences founded between the different horizons of occupation regarding the vertebrate fauna. These results are important because little is known of the modali- ties of appropriation of animal resources by the human groups associated to the late sambaquis of the Santa Catarina coast
