A pesquisa teve como objetivo acompanhar as mudanças populacionais e comportamentais da população de Cebus apella que vive na Mata dos Macacos em Santa Fé Do Sul/SP e investigar mudanças que afetaram direta ou indiretamente a população de macaco prego no período anterior e durante a pandemia da Covid-19. A mata é um local turístico onde os animais têm contato direto com os turistas e têm alimentação livre de acordo com o que os visitantes oferecem. Com a pandemia e, consequentemente, o fechamento do local, observaram-se mudanças na população, que mostrou comportamentos, tamanho da população e interação com os humanos alterados. Com as visitas de antes e durante a pandemia, foram registradas todas as alterações observadas de acordo com a situação que a mata vivenciou. Os macacos que, anteriormente, tinham visitas frequentes e comida à vontade, com a pandemia, tiveram a situação transformada, forçando-os a voltarem a ter seus comportamentos mais naturais, buscando seu alimento e sem ligação com turistas. POPULATION DENSITY AND BEHAVIORAL ANALYSIS OF CEBUS APELLA AT MATA DOS MACACOS BEFORE AND DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC ABSTRACTThe research aimed at monitoring population and behavioral changes of Cebus paella population living in Mata dos Macacos in Santa Fé do Sul, as well as investigating changes that directly or indirectly affected the capuchin monkey population in the period before and during Covid-19 pandemic.
