摘要

人类与野生动物冲突的社会层面正变得越来越重要。在农作物掠夺是一个普遍问题的地区,当地人对野生动物的态度是保护工作成功与否的一个重要指标。青藏高原东部就是这样一个地区,这里是生物多样性的热点地区,拥有保存完好的森林生态系统和实行自给农业的山村。在此背景下,我们调查了5个西藏村庄的人们对野生动物的容忍度,这些村庄经历了因农作物掠夺事件而产生的冲突。我们采访了83名受访者,其中76人参加了为农作物损害提供赔偿的赔偿计划。野生动物的容忍度普遍较高,主要是由于互惠的野生动物价值观,即人们认为他们应该与动物平等共处,而不是将它们作为自然资源加以利用。对野生动物的容忍度受人们对野生动物的偏好而非对农田的破坏程度的影响:人们可能对文化上重要的物种表现出更高的容忍度,即使这些物种是破坏作物的动物。虽然作为传统保护管理一部分的经济和缓解努力提高了容忍度,但补偿计划和围栏不如野生动物偏好重要。我们建议,人类与野生动物冲突的保护管理应该制定针对区域和利益相关者的参与策略。至关重要的是,这些战略应纳入文化方面的考虑,以充分解决这些问题所固有的复杂的人的方面。

The social dimensions of human–wildlife conflicts are becoming increasingly important. In regions where crop-raiding is a common issue, local people's attitudes toward wildlife is an important indicator of how successful conservation efforts are likely to be. One such area is the east Tibetan Plateau—a biodiversity hotspot with well-preserved forest ecosystems and mountain villages where subsistence farming is practiced. In this context, we conducted a survey of people's tolerance toward wildlife in five Tibetan villages that experience conflicts arising from crop-raiding incidents. We interviewed 83 respondents, 76 of whom were participants in a compensation scheme that provided payments for crop damage. Wildlife tolerance was generally high, mostly due to mutualistic wildlife values, whereby people believed they should coexist with animals equally instead of exploiting them as natural resources. Tolerance was influenced by people's wildlife preference rather than the level of damage to croplands: people were likely to show higher tolerance toward culturally important species even when they were crop-raiding animals. While economic and mitigation efforts as part of traditional conservation management led to increased tolerance, the compensation scheme and fencing were less important than wildlife preference. We suggest that conservation management for human-wildlife conflicts should develop region and stakeholder-specific engagement strategies. Crucially, such strategies should incorporate cultural considerations to fully address the complex human dimensions inherent in these issues.
