PUBLIC POLICIES AIMED AT NON-HUMAN ANIMALS: AN ESCAPE FROMTHE ANTHROPOCENTRIC VIEW OF LAW

Abstract

The idea of these lines is to emphasize that wildlife tourism, even though it brings wealth and a tourist route to a municipality, can cause significant disturbances to traditional peoples and also to animals in their natural habitats. Scaring animals, especially at sensitive times in their life cycle, has an adverse effect, and the feeding of wild animals by tourists is difficult to control factors that can change patterns of social behavior. But even human beings, as well as animals, can be harmed by tourism in the forests, similar to what happened in the Amazon. Social and cultural impacts related to tourism and its subsequent downfall, as happened with the bankruptcy of the Hotel de Selva Ariaú, can include impacts on the health and integrity of local cultural systems.
