ABSTRACT
The customs and culture of indigenous peoples often reflect a deep knowledge of local biodiversity that leads to ecologically responsible behavior. As a result, conservationists advocate the engagement of indigenous peoples in environmental protection programs. However, such programs often limit the use of fauna and flora without regard for indigenous peoples. By interfering with indigenous peoples’ connection to nature, restrictive policies undermine the people who could serve as the first line of defense in conservation.
