“…The results of Chabi-Boni et al [22] , Djagoun et al [25] and Zangada et al [46] confirmed that some species, despite anthropogenic pressures, show a preference for more or less anthropised habitats. Some respondents revealed that certain species are captured in large numbers in anthropised environments rather than in protected environments, as revealed by the results of Chabi-Boni et al [22] . This may be due to the fact that the core area is protected and hunters have difficulty hunting there because of surveillance patrols.…”

“…In the ephemeral pools of the Central Nucleus, the presence of Catfish (Clarias gariepinus) and probably endemic Cyprinodontidae [28] is mentionned. With regard to insects, ninety-three (93) species of butterfly have been noted in the Lama Forest Reserve, thirty-eight (38) of which are infested with forest areas, twenty-two (22) with savannahs and 18 are considered ubiquitous. The central core of the Lama Forest Reserve contributes considerably to the specific wealth of termites and lepidoptera in South of Benin.…”

“…In Benin, population growth [21] implies a significant need for meat. Despite its negative impacts, hunting remains an important protein supply activity for communities close to wildlife reserves [22] . In the Pendjari Biosphere Reserve, several clandestine circuits have been developed to illegally circulate bushmeat and hunting trophies [23] .…”

Protected areas play an important role in the sustainable conservation of biodiversity. In southern Benin Republic, the Lama Forest Reserve is a refuge for wildlife. It also generates significant incomes for the local population. However, anthropogenic activities together with uncontrolled hunting are increasingly threatening the sustainability of these resources. The study aims at investigating the hunting activities characteristics and the morphometric traits of hunted species in the Lama Forest Reserve. Snowball method has been used to constitute the sample of field respondents. Descriptive and inference statistics have been carried out to show results and analyze data. The results show that twenty-three species are mainly hunted, more for trade than for subsistence, with a dominance of mammals. It should be noted that hunting activities don't have the same level among hunted games, species and sexes although this is not generally significant statistically.

Bushmeat production process influences its quality. The objective of the study is to take stock of the hygiene of slaughter and distribution of bushmeat in southern Benin. Therefore, data on the bushmeat production process were collected and analyzed for wild species slaughtered or captured in the village of Tègon. It has been found that except for snakes and ruminants, two types of bushmeat production schemes were used according to the practices identified by category of wild species: small mammals and birds. The first type (Practice 1) was done without application of fresh blood to carcasses and the second one (Practice 2) was characterized by application of fresh blood to carcasses just after evisceration. Tools used by operators in general were poorly maintained from the hygienic point of view. No operator had a specific location suitable for storing tools. Operators did not wear mufflers, clean gloves, clean clothes and appropriate footwear. The state of animal health also remained unknown to all these operators. There was no cleaning and disinfection program for processing areas and work tools. Forward movement was not practiced at any meat processing station. Among the respondents, 3.16% did not wash carcasses, 46.88% did it poorly (with dirty water or water already used) and 50% did it unsufficiently (with very little water). Blood applied to carcasses was not cleaned by 3.13% of respondents, poorly cleaned (with dirty water) by 40.63% and unsufficiently cleaned with a little water by 56.25%. The study shows that in Tègon, the bushmeat production process is not hygienic and measures must be taken to protect the health of consumers.

Cette synthèse bibliographique vise à comprendre l’état des connaissances des pratiques de chasse et leurs effets sur les espèces de faune dans les périphéries des Aires Protégées d’Afrique de l’Ouest. Elle identifie également les lacunes dans les critères de classification des types de chasse et la prise en compte des aspects théoriques dans les diverses analyses. Trois types de chasse dont la chasse de subsistance (27,5% des documents), la chasse commerciale (63,75%) et la chasse sportive (8,75%) ont été identifiés. Si la chasse de subsistance prélève les oiseaux et les rongeurs en majorité, la chasse commerciale capture toutes les espèces rencontrées tandis que la chasse sportive abat les espèces avec les trophées comme les éléphants et les lions. L’impact négatif de la chasse est dénoncé par les auteurs lus. Bien que la prise en compte des aspects spatiaux et environnementaux et les caractéristiques biologiques des espèces prélevées soient importante dans la gestion de la faune, les documents analysés ont occulté ces aspects. Le présent travail suggère des études complètes sur la chasse traditionnelle en y intégrant les aspects spatiaux et environnementaux. This bibliographic review aims to understand the state of knowledge of hunting practices and their effects on species of fauna in the outskirts of West African Protected Areas. It also identifies the gaps in the criteria for classifying the types of hunting and the taking into account of theoretical aspects in the various analyzes. Three types of hunting including subsistence hunting (27.5% of documents), commercial hunting (63.75%) and sport hunting (8.75%) were identified. While subsistence hunting takes the majority of birds and rodents, commercial hunting captures all the species encountered while sport hunting cuts down species with trophies such as elephants and lions. The negative impact of hunting is denounced by the authors read. Although the consideration of spatial and environmental aspects and the biological characteristics of the species collected are important in wildlife management, the documents analyzed have overlooked these aspects. The present work suggests comprehensive studies on traditional hunting by integrating spatial and environmental aspects.
