Nesse contexto, vislumbra-se a necessidade do desenvolvimento de ações de controlepopulacional desses animais. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi conhecer a percepção dos atoressociais, como gestores dos órgãos responsáveis pelas ações de controle, gestores de organizações nãogovernamentais de proteção animal e população em geral em relação à qualidade de vida e o controlepopulacional dos cães não domiciliados. Foram aplicados questionários estruturados a amostrasdesses três grupos e os dados foram trabalhados com técnicas de estatística descritiva e comparaçãode frequência. Os resultados permitiram concluir que a percepção da sociedade sobre o controlepopulacional e a qualidade de vida desses animais guardam importantes diferenças sob a ótica dostrês grupos avaliados, mas apresentam, também, semelhanças importantes, em especial no tocanteà percepção sobre a responsabilidade pelo desenvolvimento de ações de controle populacional, àaceitação da utilização de recursos públicos destinados à saúde pública nas ações de controle, àqualificação como grande a densidade populacional e à má qualidade de vida desses animais.Palavras-chave: cão não domiciliado; controle populacional; percepção social.Universidade Federal de Goiás2015-10-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionDescriptive ResearchAvaliado por paresPesquisa seccional descritivaapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/3046810.1590/cab.v16i4.30468Brazilian Animal Science/ Ciência Animal Brasileira; Vol. 16 No. 4 (2015); 574-588Ciência Animal Brasileira / Brazilian Animal Science; v. 16 n. 4 (2015); 574-5881809-68911518-2797reponame:Ciência animal brasileira (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGporhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/30468/19466https://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/30468/19467Moutinho, Flavio Fernando Batistado Nascimento, Elmiro RosendoPaixão, Rita Lealinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2015-11-10T17:44:06Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/30468Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/vetPUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/oai||revistacab@gmail.com1809-68911518-2797opendoar:2024-05-21T19:56:05.592533Ciência animal brasileira (Online) - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)true |
