Ecologia comportamental em felinos

Abstract

A diminuição da biodiversidade da Terra devido à atividade humana e, em particular, o número de espécies em risco de extinção, está entre as tendências ambientais críticas que marcam esta como uma era sem precedentes na história do nosso planeta. Este estudo de revisão bibliográfica visa determinar como a ecologia comportamental pode influenciar e auxiliar na conservação de felinos, com foco em três espécies: Gato-Andino, Lince Ibérico e Leopardo das neves. Esta investigação documental mostra que a integração do comportamento animal, em escalas ecológicas maiores, torna mais auspiciosa a aplicação bem-sucedida da pesquisa comportamental na conservação. Além disso, demonstra que a restauração ecológica por meio da reintrodução é uma das áreas mais promissoras para as contribuições de pesquisas comportamentais. O trabalho conjunto de conservacionistas e ecologistas comportamentais pode levar à criação de revisões e diretrizes sistemáticas, completas e facilmente acessíveis, que permitirão o desenvolvimento com base em evidências de diretórios de soluções comportamentais reais e potenciais para problemas de conservação e gestão.

The diminishing of the Earth's biodiversity due to human activity, and in particular the number of species that are at risk of extinction, is among the critical environmental trends that marks this as an unprecedented era in our planet’s history. This bibliographic review study aims to determine how behavioural ecology can influence and help in the conservation of felines, with focus on three species: Andean Cat, Iberian Lynx, and the Snow Leopard. This research shows that the integration of animal behaviour, at larger ecological scales, makes the successful application of behavioural research in conservation more auspicious. Additionally, it demonstrates that ecological restoration through reintroduction is one of the most promising areas for contributions from behavioural research. The joint work of conservationists and behavioural ecologists can lead to the creation of systematic, complete, and easily accessible reviews and guidelines that will allow evidence-based development of directories of potential and real behavioural solutions to conservation and management problems.
