Abstract
[por] Os montes Pirineus contemporâneos foram convertidos em uma reserva ambiental. O agudo processo de despovoamento experimentado durante o século XX, e a apropriação progressiva de grande parte de seu território por parte do Estado para implementar políticas de conservação, favoreceram o reaparecimento, através da reintrodução, da promoção ou da recuperação espontânea, de diversas espécies de grandes predadores, aves de rapina, ungulados e outros mamíferos. A gestão pública da fauna selvagem nos Pirineus, por meio da qual a natureza é reinventada para se ajustar aos padrões pós-modernos da vida silvestre, manifesta a existência de racionalidades e valorações que escapam aos critérios pretensamente objetivos de uma ecologia mecanicista.
[eng] The contemporary Pyrenees are becoming an environmental reservoir. The acute process of human depopulation experienced during the twentieth century and the progressive appropriation of large parts of its territory by the states to implement conservation policies have resulted in the return, via reintroduction or natural regeneration, of charismatic animal species such as the wolf, bear, deer, elk, and chamois. The public management of wildlife in the Pyrenees, by which nature is reinvented to fit postmodern standards on wildlife, says the existence of rationality and value beyond the supposedly objective criteria of a mechanical ecology.
