Abstract

Birds of prey play important roles in natural ecosystems that range from determining the structure and organization of biological communities to biological control of pests, on the other hand they also play a role in mythology and legends, it is at this point when perceptions or false beliefs generated by the human being, added to the lack of biological information can affect a species, therefore these dimensions influence its protection and conservation, which leads us to propose the present study focused on evaluating false beliefs in around the group of birds of prey and how they affect their conservation, so that they allow the development of an educational strategy in order to make society aware of their care and protection, the research was carried out in the city of Quito, a survey was applied from of a population sample at the family level, interviews were conducted to obtain the cultural perception he ancestral of the avifauna, which will later guide the bias that it has with the current cultural perception in young people, at the end and based on the data obtained, an educational strategy that intends to integrate the faunal knowledge of the student body will be recommended, keeping in mind the cultural context where these take meaning and meaning, in order to establish ways and means to incorporate them into biological education, in such a way that they do not lose cultural knowledge or ignore the biological role played by this group of birds.
