Prikaz svih podataka o dokumentuApstrakt:
Stone crayfish, an endangered and protected species in Republic of Serbia, inhabits mountain areas of
the country. The knowledge and attitude of children from two primary schools (Pirot and Bosilegrad)
towards this species was tested. Two surveys with the same questionnaire were conducted. The first
one was held at the end of the 6th grade, and the second was conducted a year later. The second
survey has shown moderate increase in children's knowledge. To better protect and conserve rare and
endangered taxa it is necessary to raise awareness of the public, particularly in the areas where these
species are present. Attitudes, values, behaviour, knowledge of citizen and especially young
generations form a good basis for the protection and sustainable development planning in local
community.
