“…Nesse sentido, aumentar a conectividade do PARNA Iguaçu com outras UCs e grandes blocos florestais é uma medida urgente e necessária para permitir o fluxo gênico, e também para possibilitar a recolonização por espécies que possam ter sido extintas localmente (De Angelo et al 2013, Brocardo 2019. Contudo, atualmente é provável que a caça seja a ameaça mais forte e eminente sobre os mamíferos nessa UC (Fragoso et al 2011, Bertrand et al 2018, tal como observado em outras áreas da Mata Atlântica (Galetti et al 2017). A caça foi apontada como responsável pelo desaparecimento de queixadas na UC (Azevedo & Conforti 2008), que só voltaram a ser registrados após um período de 20 anos (Brocardo et al 2017), fato que pode estar ligado a esforços empregados no combate à caça e à extração ilegal de palmito.…”

O estabelecimento de áreas protegidas tem sido uma das ferramentas mais efetivas na conservação da biodiversidade em todo mundo. No Brasil, os primeiros parques nacionais foram estabelecidos na década de 1930, dos quais o Parque Nacional do Iguaçu (PARNA Iguaçu) foi o segundo a ser criado, em 1939, tendo como propósito proteger as mundialmente famosas Cataratas do Iguaçu e a até então primitiva floresta subtropical do oeste paranaense. Contudo, apesar da longa data desde sua criação, este parque apresenta uma série de lacunas de informações sobre sua biodiversidade, fator que compromete não só o conhecimento científico sobre esse importante remanescente de Mata Atlântica, mas igualmente o manejo da área. Nesse trabalho são apresentados resultados de um intenso esforço em campo com amostragem de mamíferos (mais de 15 mil armadilhas fotográficas-dia para médios e grandes mamíferos, e quase 8 mil armadilhas-noite para pequenos), registro de mamíferos atropelados em rodovias dentro e às margens do PARNA Iguaçu, além de revisão bibliográfica sobre a mastofauna do PARNA Iguaçu, com o objetivo de

Hunting activity and the use of fauna are ancient practices that reveal meaningful connections with biodiversity. Such activities present patterns of use and consumption linked to sociocultural factors, such as land situation and financial condition. However, hunting pressure can cause the decline of wild animal populations, which is a conservationist concern. For this reason, this research aims to provide an inventory of the most cited species during hunting and analyze the sociocultural characteristics of those practicing this activity in a Cerrado location in Northeast Brazil. The information was obtained through semi-structured questionnaires, complemented by informal conversations, with 21 hunters aged between 18 and 72 years. Additionally, the Generalized Linear Model (GLM) verified whether socioeconomic factors influence hunting activity in the municipality of Anapurus - MA. The analyses reported 23 taxa were cited, of which 20 identified at species level and 3 at genus level, with their uses linked to food, and among the two groups cited: mammals and birds, the second group had the highest number of citations. The analyzed data showed that none of the socioeconomic factors selected could affect hunting in the municipality, implying that cultural and traditional aspects are the primary influence.

ABSTRACT. The impacts of unregulated sport hunting can severely affect populations of target game species. Because hunting in Brazil is limited by law, obtaining data on illegal sport hunting in this country is challenging. We used an unusual online resource, YouTube™, to detect the occurrence of sport hunting in Brazil, measure the impacts of the activity on the main Brazilian game species and biomes, evaluate the opinions of hunters and internet users on sport hunting, and discuss the need for policy interventions in wildlife conservation in this country. We found 383 videos related to Brazilian sport hunting on YouTube™, accounting for more than 15 million views. Most videos were produced in the Cerrado (Brazilian savannah) and approximately 70% of them depicted events of pursuit and killing of wild animals, especially lowland pacas (Cuniculus paca) and armadillos (Family Dasypodidae). Videos were posted primarily in July and December, coinciding with the two main Brazilian vacation periods. Furthermore, the shotguns identified on videos show that sport hunters expend large sums of money to undertake their hunts. These results indicate that Brazilian sport hunters are possibly wealthier urban residents who travel to rural areas to hunt, contrasting with previous hunting studies in the country. Most viewers declared themselves in favor of sport hunting in comments (n = 2893) and ratings (n = 36,570) of the videos. Discussions generated by comments suggest that Brazilian sport hunters employ several informal management strategies to maintain game species stocks for future hunting and intensely question the restrictions of Brazilian environmental policies. Our results demonstrate that solutions are needed for the regulation of sport hunting in Brazil. Government actions, whether to increase surveillance or legalize hunting programs, should take into account the opinions of sport hunters and their perceptions on hunting dynamics to support effective policy decisions on wildlife conservation in Brazil.
