Expanding the life framework of values
Open AccessKyle Jewell, Christian Kiffner et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2026
Conceptualising and organising the range of value orientations and worldviews underpinning human–nature relationships is useful for understanding different, and sometimes conflicting, perspectives on how nature should be managed and working towards just and equitable policies. We test the applicability and current scope of the Life Framework of Values ( living from‐, living in‐, living with‐ and living as‐nature ) by aligning it with pre‐existing…
Beyond kill or no-kill: Institutional analysis of lethal control decision-making in large carnivore management
Open AccessNimisha Srivastava, John D C Linnell et al.ARTICLEAMBIO2026Cited by: 1References: 71
Countries use lethal control as a tool to respond to human–large carnivore conflicts to varying degrees. The aim of this study was to explore the complexities surrounding the often-controversial decision to lethally manage carnivores. We examined the cases of the tiger ( Panthera tigris ) in India and the wolf ( Canis lupus ) in Germany. This study used an Institutional Analysis and Development framework to analyze contrasting sociopolitical proc…
Bridging the gap between science, policy and stakeholders: Towards sustainable wolf–livestock coexistence in human‐dominated landscapes
Open AccessEmu Felicitas Ostermann‐Miyashita, Hannah Kirkland et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2025
While the return of wolves ( Canis lupus ) to many European countries is a conservation milestone, the negative impacts are unevenly distributed across society, placing high pressure on livestock grazing systems. For this perspective, scientists from diverse disciplines and geographical backgrounds reflect on the state of livestock–wolf interactions in Europe and formulate recommendations for enabling wolf–livestock coexistence. We argue that co‐…
What does coexistence mean? Insight from place‐based trajectories of pastoralists and bears encounters in the Pyrenees
Open AccessAlice Ouvrier, Manon Culos et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2025
The recovery of large carnivores in Europe raises issues related to sharing landscape with humans. Beyond technical solutions, it is widely recognized that social factors also contribute to shaping coexistence. In this context, scholars increasingly stress the need to adopt place‐based approaches by analysing how humans and wildlife interact and co‐adapt in specific landscapes. In the burgeoning field of ‘more‐than‐human’ geography, both humans a…

Can cultural ecosystem services contribute to satisfying basic human needs? A case study from the Lofoten archipelago, northern Norway
Open AccessBjørn P Kaltenborn, John D C Linnell et al.ARTICLEApplied Geography2020
There is gradual recognition that cultural ecosystem services are critical building blocks for human well-being. Cultural and provisioning services are often intertwined, difficult to separate, and play salient roles in maintaining local identities. However, multiple studies assume links between cultural ecosystem services and human well-being, without quantifying relationships. We surveyed a representative sample of the population in the Lofoten…
The leopard that learnt from the cat and other narratives of carnivore–human coexistence in northern India
Open AccessDhee Dhee, Venkatesh Athreya et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2019
This study explores the diversity of factors that influence human–leopard relationships in Himachal Pradesh, India. Looking beyond the socio‐economic and ecological dimensions of human–leopard conflict, it documents the multifaceted nature of human–wildlife relationships. We carried out a qualitative analysis of human–leopard interactions based on interviews conducted during an ethnographic study of various stakeholders in the vicinity of a villa…
It’s All about the Scenery”: Tourists’ Perceptions of Cultural Ecosystem Services in the Lofoten Islands, Norway
Open AccessBjørn P Kaltenborn, Eivind F Kaltenborn et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2019
The Lofoten Islands in northern Norway face challenges from increasing visitor numbers, congestion, environmental impacts, and growing host-visitor tensions. Benefits include increased local employment and growing revenues. Future tourism policy requires better documentation of the non-economic benefits and values associated with tourism in Lofoten; this information is important to the development of policy and management processes. We conducted …
Who are legitimate stakeholders? National and local perceptions of environmental change in the Lofoten islands, Norway
Bjørn P Kaltenborn, John D C LinnellARTICLEPolar Geography2019
Debates on future resource policy in northern regions raises the question of who are the legitimate stakeholders to include in policy deliberations? The Lofoten archipelago in Northern Norway is a world-class nature tourism destination, the key spawning ground for North Atlantic cod as well as a reservoir of large unexploited off-shore oil and gas deposits. We surveyed the resident Lofoten population and the larger Norwegian public to ascertain t…

Tourism livelihoods in Smøla, Norway
Open AccessI Kelman, John D C Linnell et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marine and Island…2017
Tourism in islands and archipelagos provides numerous advantages and disadvantages. This paper analyses a previously unpublished case study of island tourism livelihoods from the archipelago of Smøla, Norway, examining the pros and cons of implemented or proposed tourism livelihoods based on a snapshot from 2008-2009. Smøla’s tourism livelihoods are categorised by nature, technology focusing on the wind farm, fishing and hunting, cultural landsca…

Recovery of large carnivores in Europe’s modern human-dominated landscapes
Open AccessGuillaume Chapron, Petra Kaczensky et al.ARTICLEScience2014
The conservation of large carnivores is a formidable challenge for biodiversity conservation. Using a data set on the past and current status of brown bears ( Ursus arctos ), Eurasian lynx ( Lynx lynx ), gray wolves ( Canis lupus ), and wolverines ( Gulo gulo ) in European countries, we show that roughly one-third of mainland Europe hosts at least one large carnivore species, with stable or increasing abundance in most cases in 21st-century recor…

Cervids in a dynamic northern landscape: Holocene changes in the relative abundance of moose and red deer at the limits of their distributions
Open AccessJørgen Rosvold, Reidar Andersen et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2013Cited by: 3References: 14
It is predicted that future climate change will have a significant impact on the distribution of large ungulates on a continental scale. At the same time, changes in human land use on a more local scale may affect their distribution and dispersal abilities, possibly confounding the effects of climate. We analyze changes in the Holocene distribution and relative abundance of Alces alces (moose) and Cervus elaphus (red deer) skeletal remains along …

The king of the forest: Local knowledge about European brown bears (Ursus arctos) and implications for their conservation in contemporary Western Macedonia
Open AccessNicolas Lescureux, John D C Linnell et al.ARTICLEConservation and Society2011
From a conservation point of view, Macedonia's brown bear (Ursus arctos) population appears to be a key link in the distribution of one of Europe's largest brown bear populations, the Dinaric-Pindos population. The lack of information concerning the bear population in the Republic of Macedonia and bear acceptance by local people inspired us to explore local knowledge and perceptions concerning bears that could be relevant for their conservation. …

People and Wildlife: Conflict or Coexistence?
J Gregg Robinson, Howard Quigley et al.BOOKPeople and Wildlife2005
Human-wildlife conflict is a major issue in conservation. As people encroach into natural habitats, and as conservation efforts restore wildlife to areas where they may have been absent for generations, contact between people and wild animals is growing. Some species, even the beautiful and endangered, can have serious impacts on human lives and livelihoods. Tigers kill people, elephants destroy crops and African wild dogs devastate sheep herds l…

Between 1988 and 1995, dens in three adjacent arctic fox (Alopex lagopus) territories were monitored in an alpine environment in south-central Norway (the Snøhetta plateau). A total of 675 scats were collected at dens in both winter and summer, and the numbers of resident adults and pups at emergence were counted each summer. Small rodents (mainly Lemmus sp. and Microtus sp.) were the most frequently consumed prey and made up the greatest volume …
