Summary
Social values play a critical role in how humans perceive interactions with wildlife. Values direct individual, organizational and societal responses to these interactions over a wide variety of contexts, including human–wildlife conflict. Research supports the notion that values are changing at societal and individual levels due to modernization. These changes have resulted in a highly contested decision context, challenging the ability of managers to find simple solutions in mediating conflict. Using examples from data collected in the USA, we describe the nature of value composition in society, the factors which are driving change and the impact of that change on issues such as carnivore management. We also outline new directions for understanding the processes by which these core beliefs about wildlife are shaped, and underscore a need to develop multilevel models of these important processes.
