  • Citizens' attitudes toward the protection of flying squirrels in urban areas

    Open AccessArtti Juutinen, Suvi Ilvonen et al.ARTICLEConservation Ecology2023

    The Siberian flying squirrel ( Pteromys volans ) is included among the strictly protected species of the Habitats Directive (92/43/EC) of the European Union, which is one of the key instruments for biodiversity preservation in Europe. Strict protection of the species has a potential to cause conflicts in areas where forest management and urban development compete for the same space with the flying squirrel. This study examined attitudes of Finnis…

  • Homecoming without Nostalgia

    Open AccessJuha Hiedanpää, Jani PellikkaARTICLEEnvironmental Values2022

    Wildlife translocations often raise concerns about the purpose and impact among people living in target locations. We applied the integrated impact assessment in planning the reintroduction of wild forest reindeer in Finland. We investigated the variety of expected socioecological impacts, the relative importance of these impacts and local willingness to participate in local-level reintroduction activities. The reintroduction project organised in…

  • Beliefs of Forest Owners Toward Cooperative Capercaillie Lekking Site Management Operations

    Piia Ikonen, Janne Miettinen et al.ARTICLEHuman Dimensions of Wildlife2022

    The beliefs of forest owners with regard to cooperative forest management on capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus) lekking sites were explored in a qualitative interview study targeted at owners (n = 12) with lekking sites on their properties. The Theory of Planned Behavior was used as a framework, through which the beliefs of the forest owners were elicited for further study, while discussing the readiness of forest owners to participate in cooperativ…

  • Nudging the Impasse? Lessons From the Nationwide Online Wolf Management Forum in Finland

    Matti Salo, Juha Hiedanpää et al.ARTICLESociety & Natural Resources2017Cited by: 2References: 6

    During the early 2010s, Finnish wolf (Canis lupus) policy reached an impasse. Unfavorable conservation status, intensifying wolf–human conflict, civil disobedience, legislative confusion, and administrative frustration characterized the situation. As part of a participatory updating process for the Finnish national wolf management plan in 2014, we organized a nationwide wolf management forum to explore how e-participation could be used to nurture…

  • Management of Large Carnivores in Fennoscandia

    Camilla Sandström, Jani Pellikka et al.ARTICLEHuman Dimensions of Wildlife2009

    Countries are increasingly shifting responsibility for large carnivore management from central to local government authorities. The three countries in Fennoscandia—Finland, Norway, and Sweden—are no exception. In all three countries new approaches to large carnivore management have emerged, including some elements of decentralization, which is intended to increase efficiency, and improve the equity, participation, and transparency of the governme…

  • Collaborative Moose Hunting Planning

    Jani Pellikka, Pekka SalmiARTICLEHuman Dimensions of Wildlife2008

    Interest in effective stakeholder collaboration in moose management is growing in Finland. Success is critical because moose are an ecologically, socially, and economically important game animal and pest, especially in Fennoscandia. In Finland, for over two decades regional multi-stakeholder meetings have had an informal consultative role in regional planning for moose hunting. Moose management in Finland informs an understanding of the key facto…
