摘要

随着自然栖息地的减少和野生动物对日益增加的人为干扰的适应,了解居住区中人类与野生动物的关系至关重要。然而,相关研究非常有限,而且大多集中在单个城市。为了填补这一知识空白,我们通过开展和分析一项分布在德国各地的在线调查(n = 2997 名参与者),研究了人们在居住区观赏野生哺乳动物的偏好。我们的结果显示,人们经常遇到喜欢的物种(松鼠、刺猬、野兔、狍子),而不喜欢的物种则是那些经常遇到的物种(老鼠、貂),以及那些很少遇到的物种(野猪、山猫、浣熊)。我们还发现,与哺乳动物相遇的次数与人类偏好的哺乳动物之间存在中度正相关。最后,一些社会人口变量,特别是性别、花园的使用权和城市化程度,与人类的偏好有显著关系。基于我们的研究结果,我们建议对居民区的野生动物进行有针对性的管理,以促进人们喜欢的野生动物作为生物多样性大使的积极属性,同时也解决如何减少与不喜欢的物种相遇和负面看法的问题。

The good, the bad, and the unseen: wild mammal encounters influence wildlife preferences of residents across socio-demographic gradients

As natural habitats decline and wildlife adapts to increasing anthropogenic disturbance, it is crucial to understand human-wildlife relationships in residential areas. However, relevant studies are limited and mostly focused on single cities. To address this knowledge gap, we investigated people’s preferences for seeing wild mammals in residential areas by conducting and analyzing an online survey distributed across Germany (n = 2997 participants). Our results revealed that preferred species (squirrels, hedgehogs, hares, roe deer) were frequently encountered, whereas unpreferred species were those encountered frequently (rats, martens), as well as those encountered rarely (wild boar, coypus, raccoons). We also found a moderately positive correlation between the number of encounters with mammals and them being preferred by humans. Finally, some socio-demographic variables, particularly gender, garden access, and urbanity, are significantly related to human preferences. Based on our results, we propose tailoring wildlife management in residential areas to promote the positive attributes of preferred wildlife as biodiversity ambassadors, while also addressing ways to mitigate encounters and negative perceptions associated with unpreferred species.

The post The good, the bad, and the unseen: wild mammal encounters influence wildlife preferences of residents across socio-demographic gradients first appeared on Ecology & Society.

期刊介绍: Ecology and Society is an electronic, peer-reviewed, multi-disciplinary journal devoted to the rapid dissemination of current research. Manuscript submission, peer review, and publication are all handled on the Internet. Software developed for the journal automates all clerical steps during peer review, facilitates a double-blind peer review process, and allows authors and editors to follow the progress of peer review on the Internet. As articles are accepted, they are published in an "Issue in Progress." At four month intervals the Issue-in-Progress is declared a New Issue, and subscribers receive the Table of Contents of the issue via email. Our turn-around time (submission to publication) averages around 350 days. We encourage publication of special features. Special features are comprised of a set of manuscripts that address a single theme, and include an introductory and summary manuscript. The individual contributions are published in regular issues, and the special feature manuscripts are linked through a table of contents and announced on the journal''s main page. The journal seeks papers that are novel, integrative and written in a way that is accessible to a wide audience that includes an array of disciplines from the natural sciences, social sciences, and the humanities concerned with the relationship between society and the life-supporting ecosystems on which human wellbeing ultimately depends.
