Human-Wildlife Interactions

Beatrice Frank is Assistant Professor at the University of Victoria, and the social science specialist for Capital Regional District Regional Parks, Canada. Her research and work focuses on the human dimension of wildlife management, with an emphasis on overabundant species, such as wild boars and coyotes. In the last 10 years, she has focused on better defining tolerance and coexistence and developed the conflict-to-coexistence concept proposed in this book, which she is furthering in her most recent research and publications. Jenny A. Glikman is Associate Director of Community Engagement at the San Diego Zoo Global, and adjunct professor for the Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Conservation Biology at University of Maine, USA. As a social scientist, her primary role is to develop human dimensions research in community based conservation programmes. Silvio Marchini is a lecturer at the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, leading the People and Wildlife Coexistence Project. He has taught human dimensions of wildlife conservation to students and wildlife professionals in Brazil, the UK, Costa Rica, Columbia, and Bolivia, and his current work focuses on ways to upscale the analysis and management of human-wildlife conflict.
