ResumePostulating that the local perceptions made out of the use of the mangrove resources induce their degradation, this endogenous research article aims to scrutinize the soportrayed social phenomenon through the lens of qualitative method principles. In order to formulate its objectives the ongoing research has adopted direct observation and semistructured interview conducted with sixteen respondents systematically sampled along the diversification and saturation lines. As a matter of fact, one of the requirements of the sustainable development paradigm seems to be the responsible exploitation of the natural resources continuously threatened and endangered by the impacts of climate change. Such a responsible use is not always respected within some communities. As a result, emerges the destruction of resources like the Togbin-Daho mangrove in Southern Benin. The findings analyzed and discussed against the backdrop of the theories of social representations and tragedy of the commons reveal that the perceptions of the riparian population about the Togbin-Daho mangrove substantiate their way of use, and thereby its destruction.
