Etnoecologia da pesca na Reserva Extrativista Riozinho do Anfrísio - Terra do Meio, Amazônia, Brasil
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012) BARROS, Flávio Bezerra
This article presents some ethnoecological aspects of the fishing activity in Riozinho do Anfrísio Extractive Reserve, a protected area (PA) located in the municipality of Altamira, State of Pará, Brazil. This PA was created in 2004 through a joint initiative of the riverines and Transamazonian Highway and Xingu social movements. Fishing is one of the most important productive activities in this extractive reserve. By using ethnoecological methods this study addresses the cosmologies and the knowledge related to the use of fish for subsistence and commercial purposes. Our results showed that the riverine people demonstrate a high level of knowledge regarding their ecosystems and the fish biodiversity, which must be considered part of the local biocultural heritage. This knowledge must be also integrated in the conservation strategies taken place in that region.

In Bragança, in coastal communities RESEX marine Caeté-Taperaçu, called village of fishermen and village of Boniface, ‘curral’ fishing is one of the main economic activities for these localities. The research investigated the ‘knowledge-doings’ used in the construction of these trap fishing and how they are passed on and recovered over time. Semistructured questionnaires were applied among the fishermen trying to understand the “knowledge-doings” used in the construction and implementation of “currais” fishing, and the perceptions of these fishermen about these kind of fishery. Initiation in the activity still occurs during childhood with the parents. Socialization generation to generation of doings knowledge by experience is a basic characteristic of traditional knowledge. The construction of a “curral” fishing is made in stages, and only for expert fishermen, hired specifically for this purpose. The most worrying result observed is present in the very speech of the subjects fishermen of this research , stating that the corral fishing is in decline due to the large exploration of other fishing gear on fisheries of the estuary resources , evidenced by the decrease in amount of fish caught in corrals in recent years.
