The spa society plays an important part in the central Pyrenean economy from the early eighteenth century. Hunting and game consumption become here a complex phenomenon, by the union of the demand for local or refined foods and of the medicinal advices. With the taste for local products in the spa society, some Pyrenean animals become game and the consumption of different species (bear.) evolves in another way than the local customs. The spa society develops also new forms of hunting with effects on the environmental and social context. Gradually, hunting and game consumption take part in the building of the Pyrenean representation. The species especially studied in this paper are: Rupicapra rupicapra (izard), Ursus arctos (bear), Tetrao urogallus (capercaillie), Lagopus mutus (ptarmigan), Bonasa bonasia (hazel grouse), Turdus torquatus (ring ouzel) and Columba palumbus (wood pigeon). The discovery of the pyrenean landscape and the birth of fashionable spas which occur during the early modern time, lead to the existence of two very different communities in the central Pyrenees: a seasonal and original population, composed by tourists and foreigners come to take the waters, appears beside the old mountain societies. This new situation has very important effects on the local economy, in the full etymological meaning of this word: new productive and commercial activities spring up while some relations with non human elements of the local ecosystem are radically modified. The developments and the evolutions of hunting and game consumption provide a perfect example of these changes: practices and desires of Pyrenean visitors turn species into games; they also create markets for wild meats and give them important functions in a gastronomic and symbolical discourse.
