  • Summary

    Following the example of Woodroffe et al. (2005), we close the book by offering our conclusions and hopes for a future that entails coexisting with wildlife. Human–wildlife interactions – and clashes of opinions between stakeholders about how to deal with the encounters – will grow as the boundaries between human and wildlife space become more blurred. Through the innovative conceptual and applied contributions in this book, we aim to catalyse a paradigm shift from human–wildlife conflict discourses to human–wildlife interactions and coexistence dialogues. Exploring when and why people start to accept wildlife in their proximity is key to this endeavour, and represents a pathway by which we may begin to shift toward mechanisms that enhance the willingness to coexist with wild species.

  • Summary

    Conservation planning, with its emphasis on nature reserves, provides a basis for the development of spatial plans, usually at regional scale, that explicitly state objectives and then provide options for achieving them, despite limited financial resources. Conservation planning, however, is still an imperfect science that places more importance on ecological considerations than on social ones. Complementing social considerations with an integrated understanding of the ecology of a region, and obtaining enough social data in a cost-effective manner, are recurrent challenges. Here, we address the potential of systematic planning to improve human–wildlife interactions. Mapping risks and opportunities with behavioural, social and economic data, e.g., would greatly facilitate management decisions. While data collection through conventional field methods is a constraint at large spatial scales, the huge and fast-growing amount of social data in the 'big data' space remains largely unexplored. We describe new, promising approaches for big data visualization and analysis that could be used to inform wildlife managers through easy-to-interpret, data-intensive approaches.

  • Human-wildlife conflict (HWC) is one of the most complex and urgent issues facing wildlife management and conservation today. Originally focused on the ecology and economics of wildlife damage, the study and mitigation of HWC has gradually expanded its scope to incorporate the human dimensions of the whole spectrum of human-wildlife relationships, from conflict to coexistence. Having the conflict-to-coexistence continuum as its leitmotiv, this book explores a variety of theories and methods currently used to address human-wildlife interactions, illustrated by case studies from around the world. It presents some key concepts in the field, such as values, emotions, social identity and tolerance, and a variety of insights and solutions to turn conflict into coexistence, from individual level to national scales, including conservation marketing, incremental and radical innovation, strategic planning, and socio-ecological systems. This volume will be of interest to a wide range of readers, including academics, researchers, students, practitioners and policy-makers.
