Course description
Increases in populations of humans have led to increases in human-wildlife conflicts. `Human-wildlife conflict management' is now used to describe any negative interactions between humans and wildlife. These interactions can be real or perceived, economic or aesthetic, social or political, and may encompass damages to the individual that result from wildlife legislation, regulations, or policies that are designed to protect or conserve wildlife, public benefits, and individual property rights. This course is about understanding the causes of and resolutions to human-wildlife conflicts.
