Abstract: | This work presents the perceptions of the wild fauna of residents of the Amazon communities participating in the conservation programs of the harpy eagle (Harpia harpyja) and tracaja (Podocnemis unifilis). From the systematic observation and semi-structured interviews the research discusses the constitution of perceptions in the conservation of these flagship species, from peculiar socio-historical processes and environmental knowledge in each community. The perceptions about the harpy eagle are based on the intangibility of the bird, which allows them to appreciate its beauty, and sometimes to fear its powerful claws. Conservation is based on the recognition of its wild haughtiness and maintenance of its habitat, even if distant from community life, characterizing an interspecific behavior. The perceptions about the tracajá are constituted in its docility, utility and almost domestic function. Conservation is based on trans-specific behavior, which characterizes it as a “natural” member of the community. For these people, the perception of the conservation of these species is constituted by proximity, knowledge and experiences. © 2020 Centro Universitario de Anapolis. All rights reserved. |
