不同的文化与自然有不同的关系，这些关系有很多维度，影响着人们对自然的看法。因此，同一地区不同文化之间的看法可能会有所不同。了解每种文化与周围环境的关系对于正确分配保护资源和制定有效的保护行动至关重要。在这项研究中，我们讨论了两种不同文化对阿根廷濒危地区（称为干查科）大中型哺乳动物保护的看法。这两种文化分别是农民文化或克里奥尔文化和土著威奇文化。我们评估并比较了他们对局部灭绝、保护问题、与野生动物的冲突以及这些问题的可能解决方案的看法。我们发现，尽管两种文化居住在同一领土并报告了局部灭绝，但他们对哪些物种局部灭绝的看法不同。另一个差异是人们对失踪发生的时间段的认知。我们还发现，大多数受访者都认识到保护问题和可能的解决方案，尽管这在两种文化之间有所不同。这些物种的保护管理应针对每种文化进行具体管理，了解当地观点可以在保护计划中纳入更广泛的人类需求、观念和知识。
Different cultures have different relationships with nature, and these relationships have many dimensions which shape people’s perceptions towards nature. Therefore, perceptions may vary between different cultures within the same territories. Understanding each culture ́s relationship with the surrounding environment is of extreme importance for the correct allocation of conservation resources, and for the development of efficient conservation actions. In this study, we discuss the perceptions of two different cultures regarding large and mediumsized mammal conservation in an endangered region of Argentina, called the Dry Chaco. These two cultures are peasants, or Criollos, and the indigenous Wichís; we assessed and compared their perceptions on local extinctions, conservation problems, conflicts with wildlife and possible solutions for these issues. We found that although both cultures inhabit the same territory and report local extinctions, their perceptions on which species were locally extinct differed. Another difference was the perceived time-period in which disappearances occurred. We also found that most respondents recognize conservation problems and possible solutions, although these differ between both cultures. Management for conservation of these species should be specific to each culture, and understanding local perspectives allows the inclusion of a broader view of human needs, perceptions and knowledge in conservation programs.
