Dessa forma, para registrar os conhecimentos populares, assim como as crenças, mitos e superstições referentes aos répteis, foi desenvolvida pesquisa etnozoológica no município de Campina Grande, Estado da Paraíba. Inicialmente, para a obtenção dos dados, foram aplicados aleatoriamente, em espaços públicos, sessenta questionários contendo questões fechadas (objetivas) a respeito de temas referentes ao conhecimento dos répteis, pontos relacionados a valores positivos e negativos a respeito desses animais, bem como questões relacionadas à perseguição e preservação. Com análise dos dados, foi possível identificar o conhecimento dos entrevistados em relação aos répteis, o quanto eles podem ser apreciados ou repudiados, a percepção dos pesquisados quanto ao convívio com esses animais e a importância da preservação dos mesmos. Os resultados evidenciam que ainda existe um grande equívoco e falta de informação a respeito dos répteis, e que o medo impera em especial sobre as serpentes, deixando visível a necessidade de uma educação ambiental para toda a sociedade.Brazilian Society of Ethnobiology and Ethnoecology.2017-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa empírica de campoapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufpa.br/index.php/ethnoscientia/article/view/1018110.18542/ethnoscientia.v2i1.10181Ethnoscientia - Brazilian Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnoecology; v. 2 (2017): Ethnoscientia - Vol.2 - 2017Ethnoscientia - Brazilian Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnoecology; v. 2 (2017): Ethnoscientia - Vol.2 - 20172448-1998reponame:Ethnoscientiainstname:SBEEinstacron:SBEEporhttps://periodicos.ufpa.br/index.php/ethnoscientia/article/view/10181/7039https://periodicos.ufpa.br/index.php/ethnoscientia/article/downloadSuppFile/10181/3184CaatingaIdade modernaPor idadeDireitos autorais 2017 Ethnoscientiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva Araujo, Diego FilipeOliveira Luna, Karla Patricia2021-05-19T14:31:03Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufpa.br:article/10181Revistahttps://periodicos.ufpa.br/index.php/ethnoscientia/indexONGhttps://periodicos.ufpa.br/index.php/ethnoscientia/oaiethnoscientia@ufpa.brhttp://dx.doi.org/10.18542/ethnoscientia2448-19982448-1998opendoar:2021-05-19T14:31:03Ethnoscientia - SBEEfalse
