The work here presented discusses the crab extractors organization at Vila do Acarajó in weekends, the place is located in Bragança/PA, in Northeast of the State. The source is from the cold grubs. The crab extractors are organized in groups by a local merchant, that in partnership with the merchants from the town, facilitate the crab extractors’ journey in trucks, as a way to extract as many crustaceans as possible, indicating an intensive capture with negatives consequences from the biological point of view of the specie and social of the human groups that live around there and are dependents of the ecosystem. This research was guided by the hypothesis that the lack of material conditions to develop the fishing and agriculture, due to the scarceness of land, forcefully led the extractors to the mangroves, to allocate their work force. The investigation results show a rapid change in the context of capture and sale of the crabs, which are considered an easy and fast product to sell. Was verified that the mangrove rush is done by the Vila’s residents, even those who have terrains that indiscriminately extract crabs that didn’t reach the adult stage. These small crabs are sold without a rule about their size and the quantity by the traders. The whole is sold.
