O Lobo-ibérico (Canis lupus signatus) é classificado como "Em Perigo" em Portugal. Estima-se
que existam em Portugal menos de 300 lobos. Os principais fatores responsáveis pela regressão
desta subespécie nos últimos séculos foram a perseguição direta movida pelo Homem, a redução
das populações de ungulados selvagens e a destruição e fragmentação do habitat. É importante
compreender como as comunidades locais conhecem e entendem o comportamento deste
animal. Sendo que estas acabam por vezes por partilhar o mesmo habitat. O estudo de
comportamento deste animal tem sido relevante, para arranjar soluções que visem tentar
solucionar a diminuição da sua população e que permitam melhorar as condições de vida dos
animais. O presente estudo tem uma natureza exploratória e visa compreender as atitudes dos
pastores da região de Bragança, assim como dos alunos da ESEB, face às medidas de
conservação adotadas para a subespécie Canis lupus signatus. Para o efeito, elaborou-se um
questionário - que foi aplicado aos dois grupos referidos (N previsto = 51) − e posteriormente
utilizou-se uma folha de cálculo Excel para auxiliar nas análises estatísticas
The Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus) is an endangered subspecies, in Portugal. It is estimated that there are less than 300 wolves in Portugal. The main factors responsible for the regression of this species in the last centuries were the direct persecution moved by Man, the reduction of the populations of wild ungulates and the destruction and fragmentation of the habitat. It is important to understand how local communities know and understand an animal's behavior. These end up being inserted in the same habitat as the latter. The study of animal behavior has been relevant in seeking to improve conditions for animals. The present study has an exploratory nature and aims to understand the attitudes of the shepherds in the Bragança region, as well as the students of the ESEB, towards the existence of conservation of this subspecies Canis lupus signatus. For this purpose, a questionnaire was prepared - consisting essentially of an attitude scale - which will be submitted to the two groups mentioned (expected N = 51). The analysis of the data will be fundamentally quantitative and will allow exploring the similarities and significant differences in the attitudes in question.
