  • Adaptive Fuel Procurement in Nineteenth-Century Great Plains Landscapes

    Daniel R Uden, David J Wishart et al.ARTICLEEnvironment and History2019

    Harnessing energy for cooking, heating, eating, and travel is a fundamental human requirement and, prior to fossil fuel adoption, much energy was derived from local landscapes. In the North American Great Plains, the nineteenth century was a period of rapid social-ecological change, and adaptive fuel procurement was at its core. Here, we review nineteenth-century accounts of energy acquisition and use in Great Plains landscapes, documenting the u…

    Larkin A Powell, Uapindikirairje Kazahe et al.ARTICLEHuman Dimensions of Wildlife2017

    An individual’s decision to support conservation efforts can be affected by personal attitudes. We interviewed 100 indigenous livestock farmers on Ehirovipuka and ≠Khoadi //Hôas communal conservancies in Namibia. As conservancy support groups work with farmers, there is a need to understand what influences farmer decisions to engage in ecotourism activities for livelihood. We evaluated cognitive characteristics of farmers and their attitudes towa…

  • The Effects of Harvest Regulations on Behaviors of Duck Hunters

    Matthew T Haugen, Larkin A Powell et al.ARTICLEHuman Dimensions of Wildlife2015

    Uncertainty exists as to how duck harvest regulations influence waterfowl hunter behavior. We used the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Parts Collection Survey to examine how harvest regulations affected behaviors of Central Flyway duck hunters. We stratified hunters into ranked groups based on seasonal harvest and identified three periods (1975–1984, 1988–1993, 2002–2011) that represented different harvest regulations (moderate, restrictive, and…

  • Rural Inhabitant Perceptions of Sandhill Cranes in Wintering Areas of Northern Mexico

    Ingrid Barceló, Juan Carlos Guzmán-Aranda et al.ARTICLEHuman Dimensions of Wildlife2012

    Trends in the mid-continent population of sandhill cranes (Grus canadensis) indicate that the species is increasing. A large proportion of this population winters in northern Mexico where possible conflicts between local inhabitants and cranes can occur. We conducted interviews of 40 rural inhabitants living near wetlands used by cranes in three Mexican states. All interviewees had knowledge of cranes and were capable of describing them. The arri…
