A kutatási téma leírása:
The world is urbanising swiftly, and it is projected that by 2050, 66% of the global human population will be living in urban areas. As greened cities entice more wild animals, the newcomers tend to shed their misanthropy over the course of time and become more visible to human observers (Hunold & Mazuchowski 2020). However, the potential for conflicts with humans also increases with their increased abundance and better visibility (Houston et al. 2018; Hunold 2019). Moral panics about the unwanted “invaders” flourish, along with demands for their removal or, for restoration of wild animals presumed natural fear of humans (Bonnell & Breck 2017; Lennox et al. 2018). New innovations in urban human-wildlife coexistence are extremely required. The negative impacts ascend from various interactions between humans and wildlife or wildlife habitats, and among humans because of wildlife (McCance et al. 2017).
The announced topic is aiming to visualise the management priorities for urban wildlife focusing on birds and mammals. Apart from the deep and detailed literature review, fieldwork will be concentrating on the changes in behavioural and dietary patterns of urban wildlife. Special attention will be focusing on the different human-wildlife interactions and discussed how would manage these problems using suitable ways and methods.
