Seahorses are endangered teleost fishes under increasing human pressures worldwide. In Brazil, marine conservationists and policy-makers thus often skeptical about the viability of sustainable human-seahorse interactions. This study focuses on local ecological knowledge seahorses implications their non-lethal touristic use by a coastal community in northeastern Brazil. Community-based seahorse-watching activities have been carried out Maracaípe village since 1999, but remained uninvestigated...
Local Ecological Knowledge and social perceptions of human communities that depend on natural resources can provide important baseline information local threats impacts at a fine scale for conservation management. Seahorses play economic role in Brazilian mangroves, being sought-after seahorse-watching tours. This touristic activity is not yet formally regulated our work contribution to management three study sites located two Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) – Jericoacoara National Park, Delta...
Scuba diving tourism represents a growing non-extractive use of the marine environment, being an important income source for coastal communities. However, activity can cause impacts on benthic sessile organisms by abrading tissues or breaking physical structures. The effects scuba fishes are less studied and there is no consensus about caused. We investigated if divers causing behavioral disruptions seahorses. Divers using not cameras were observed while watching recorded minimum distance...
Este estudo descreve um caso incomum de pisoteio nos costões rochosos entremarés pela maior espécie mamífero roedor, a capivara, Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris (Linnaeus, 1766). Grupos capivaras foram observados nadando, mergulhando e descansando ao longo do Parque Estadual da Ilha Anchieta, Ubatuba, São Paulo. discutidos os possíveis efeitos diário em por uma grande incontrolada população capivaras, bem como as intervenções manejo pesquisa necessárias.
