Este trabalho teve como principal objetivo descrever as formas de uso dos recursos faunísticos pelos moradores de cinco comunidades situadas à montante da Usina Hidroelétrica de Curuá-Una, município de Mojuí dos campos, Pará. Os dados foram obtidos através de entrevistas, seguindo o método de “snowball” e analisados com estatística descritiva. Foram realizadas 71 entrevistas em cinco comunidades que fazem uso de recursos naturais para obtenção de renda ou alimentação. A agricultura aparece como principal atividade exercida para obtenção de renda e alimento. Registrou-se 35 espécies de animais destinados ao consumo, dentre estes, 25 são espécies de peixes, destacando-se o tucunaré (Cichla spp.), o charutinho (Hemiodus spp.) e as piranhas (Serrasalmus spp.; Pristobrycon spp.), representando 21,7%, 21,7% e 12%, respectivamente. Além do peixe, os comunitários consomem outros animais, como galinha caipira (Gallus gallus), pato (Anatidae) e porco (Sus domesticus). Embora “proibido” o tracajá (Podocnemis unifilis) foi citado como o animal que esporadicamente é usado como alimento. Apesar da agricultura ser apontada como principal atividade econômica e de subsistência realizada nas comunidades, a pesca é de fundamental importância na vida dos comunitários, uma vez que é praticada durante o ano todo para obtenção de alimento e em alguns casos para a comercialização.

In this study the nesting biology of Podocnem is unifilis was investigated from July to November 1998 at the Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve, located in the Solimões river, near Tefé, Amazonas, Brazil. Podocnemis unifilis nested in August and September, with the hatching event occurring in October and November. Nests were excavated in clay soils (67.5%), sand (25%), and leaf litter (7.5%). Hatching success was highest in the sand beach nests and lowest in the clay banks nests. Humans and the tegu lizard (Tupinambis) were the main egg predators. This turtle population can recover only by the protection of nesting beaches, educational programs for the in habitants of the Reserve, participation of the community in the conservation and management program , and permanent guarding of the nesting beaches by Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e Dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis-IBAMA authorities.

The black-bone chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is a breed of chicken that is commonly found in Thailand. This breed is known for having a number of black colored organs. Consumers have been notably attracted to the black-bone chicken breed for the characteristic darkness that is observed in many of its organs. However, the degree of darkness in all organs of the black-bone chicken is still in question. Importantly, there have not yet been any published reports on the distribution of melanin pigment in the organs of the black-bone chicken. This research study aims to examine the distribution of the melanin pigment in 33 organs of the Thai black-bone chicken. Ten black-bone chickens (five male, five female) were included in this study. Thirty-two organs including the brain, spinal cord, sciatic nerve, larynx, trachea, syrinx, lungs, heart, pericardium, aorta, brachial vein, kidney, cloaca, oviduct, testis, gastrocnemius muscle, femur, tongue, esophagus, crop, proventriculus, gizzard, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, pancreas, liver, gall bladder, omentum, abdominal fat, spleen, and skin were examined in this study. Histological sections taken from tissue samples of each of these organs were studied. The findings revealed that the presence of the melanin pigment was not significantly different (p > 0.005) between male and female specimens. Notably, the liver was the only organ in which the melanin pigment had not accumulated. Consequently, there was not a uniform pattern of melanin pigment accumulation throughout the organs of the chickens. The melanin pigment was present in all of the tissue layers of most organs, while the melanin pigment was found in only specific layers of some of the organs. In conclusion, the distribution of melanin pigmentation in the organs of each of the animals in this study was found to be different. However, in some tissue samples, such as those obtained from the liver, no accumulation of the melanin pigment was observed.
