Human-tapir conflict: A case report of a lowland tapir attack and a global review of such encounters
Anthropogenic alterations to ecosystems have resulted in proximity between humans and animals, imposing coexistence challenges. Here, we present a report of a tapir attack on a human in the Brazilian Amazon. In addition, we conducted a global literature review covering tapir-related incidents, compiling data from various parts of the world. Data was collected from testimonies from those involved in the incident aforementioned, without inducing th…
Hunting practices in southwestern Amazonia: A Comparative Study of Techniques, Modalities, and Baits Among Urban and Rural Hunters
Background Hunting is a vital means of obtaining animal in various human populations. Hunters rely on their knowledge of species ecology and behavior to develop and employ hunting techniques and increase their chances of success. The comparison of the hunting practices of different human societies can shed light on the sustainability of hunting and the impact it has on species' populations. In this study, we examine and compare the techniques, mo…
Human consumption of meat from roadkilled animals in the southwestern Amazon
The harvest of meat from wild animals is essential for the nutrition of many human populations in the Neotropics. Specific techniques are used to access wild meat, but collecting meat from road killed animals, or purposely run over animals to kill and consume the meat have not been documented so far. In this study we interviewed four residents of the state of Rondônia who claimed to consume roadkilled animals. Respondents cited only medium and la…
The Role of Religion, Wealth, and Livelihoods in the Hunting Practices of Urban and Rural Inhabitants in Western Amazonia
Hunting by rural and urban populations is essential for securing access to protein and other nutrients throughout the tropics. The hunting patterns of urban hunters in Amazonia, and the similarities with those of rural hunters, are unclear, as are the social factors that influence hunting practices. We analyze the effects of socioeconomic and cultural factors on hunting frequency and composition of species hunted by urban and rural Amazonian hunt…
The Influence of Youtube of Consumption of Leptodactylus Macrosternum in the State of Rondônia, Southwerstern Amazon
The consumption of anurans is almost non-existent in the Brazilian Amazon, and the objective of this study was to describe the consumption of the white-lipped frog ( Leptodactylus macrosternum ) influenced by YouTube TM videos in the Brazilian Amazon. The record of consumption was made in the rural community of Cujubim Grande, belonging to the municipality of Porto Velho, Rondônia state. The interviewee stated that she started consuming the white…
Traditional knowledge applied to hunting and breeding of the vulnerable Yellow-footed Tortoise (Chelonoidis denticulatus) in the Cazumbá-Iracema Extractive Reserve, Acre, Brazil
Hunting is intensely practiced in the Amazon and is related to the survival of riverside communities as a source of income and food. This study was conducted at Resex Cazumbá-Iracema between June and November, in the dry season and the beginning of the flood period. Twenty-one families were monitored, six hunting events were followed, and 23 C. denticulatus individuals were recorded, all of which were categorized as opportunistic. Among the studi…
Freelisting as a suitable method to estimate the composition and harvest rates of hunted species in tropical forests
The aim of this study was to test the use of measures obtained from freelisting as possible surrogates of the harvest rate of game species. For this purpose, we interviewed 100 rural and urban hunters in southwestern Amazonia to obtain the frequency of citations of each hunted species through freelisting and gather information on the number of individuals hunted per species in the last five hunting events through hunting recalls. We assessed the …
For emergency only: Terrestrial feeding in Coimbra-Filho’s titis reflects seasonal arboreal resource availability
Uso Da Fauna E Flora Por Comunidades Quilombolas Do Arquipélago Do Marajó, Pará
O Brasil apresenta uma das maiores taxas de diversidade biológica e cultural do planeta. O conhecimento e uso de elementos da fauna e da flora por comunidades quilombolas são parte importante desta diversidade e demonstram a relevância social destes povos. Reconhecer e valorizar estes saberes é elemento relevante na luta pelos direitos quilombolas. Neste trabalho, objetivou-se registar as etnoespécies reconhecidas pelas comunidades quilombolas Ba…
