Preliminary survey of teen student's conception concerning Atlantic Forest primate conservation in two non-formal educational institutions In this study we survey the teen student's conception concerning primate conservation in two non-formal educational institutions: Fundação Zoo-Botânica de Belo Horizonte (FZB-BH) e Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Nacional Feliciano Miguel Abdala (RPPN- FMA). Data was collected by semi-structured interviews of 14 to 18 years old students. Our results showed that interviewers at FZB-BH associate that area almost always to leisure's activities while RPPN-FMA was pointed like a research's unit. Moreover, students at RPPN-FMA presented higher level of information about ecology and behavior of the primates than that at FZB-BH, what can be explained, among other things, by the systematic activities of environmental education developed in this protected area. Environmental education at these institutions becomes important to spread information about primate and its threats.
