2018  Full Book

The environmental issue has been the focus of several works in recent years, studies of nature are of extreme importance to find ways to inhabit the planet impacting as little as possible. Therefore, the present study aimed to study the environmental perception of residents of the Environmental Protection Area of the Ounces in the city of SÆo JoÆo do Tigre, in Para¡ba, through researches with semi-structured questionnaires, aiming at how a population perceives the place in which they live. In addition, information about the On‡a Parda (_Puma concolor_), its relation with a population and still present in the region, was sought from the perspective of the local population. The results obtained suggest that although the Environmental Protection Area of the Ounces was created in 2002, I still can not fulfill its role, since a large part of the internal residents of the APA do not report on its implementation, (_Puma concolor_), it was possible to identify a type of problem, including information about the existence of a species of species, however, it was not possible the frequency and number of subjects that inhabit an area, making necessary the development surveys of fauna in the region.
