Meta-analysis of attitudes toward damage-causing mammalian wildlife.

摘要: Many populations of threatened mammals persist outside formally protected areas, and their survival depends on the willingness communities to coexist with them. An understanding attitudes, specifically tolerance, individuals factors that determine these is therefore fundamental designing strategies alleviate human-wildlife conflict. We conducted a meta-analysis identify affected attitudes toward 4 groups terrestrial mammals. Elephants (65%) elicited most positive followed by primates (55%), ungulates (53%), carnivores (44%). Urban residents presented (80%), commercial farmers (51%) communal (26%). A tolerance damage index showed human was proportional probability experiencing while elephants levels higher than anticipated lower anticipated. Contrary conventional wisdom, not always dominant factor determining attitudes. Communal had being irrespective damage, urban were more likely be damage. ungulates, elephants, when low, but it high. Commercial primates, Taxonomic bias may important. Identifying distinct explaining specific contexts in which they operate, inclusive species causing will essential for prioritizing conservation investments. Meta-Analisis de las Posturas hacia la Mamiferos Silvestres Causantes Danos Resumen Muchas poblaciones mamiferos amenazados persisten fuera areas protegidas formales y su supervivencia depende buena voluntad comunidades que coexisten con ellos. Un entendimiento posturas, especificamente tolerancia, los individuos factores determinan es para disenar estrategias alivien el conflicto humano – vida silvestre. Llevamos cabo un meta-analisis identificar afectaron posturas cuatro grupos terrestres. Los elefantes provocaron mas positivas. siguieron ungulados (53%) carnivoros residentes urbanos presentaron positivas seguidos por granjeros comerciales comunales indice tolerancia danos mostro humana fue proporcional probabilidad experimentar mientras niveles altos lo esperado bajos esperado. Contrario sabiduria convencional, no siempre dominante determinar posturas. tuvieron una baja ser positivos independientemente danos, mayor danos. ungulados, cuando baja, pero alta. El prejuicio taxonomico eso puede importante. distintos explican estas contextos especificos en cuales operan, inclusivo especies causan sera esencial priorizar inversiones conservacion.
