《人與野生動物互動》(HWI)是唯一一份專門致力于發(fā)表研究報告、管理案例研究和政策觀點(diǎn)的科學(xué)期刊，旨在加強(qiáng)對人與野生動物沖突的專業(yè)管理。如果野生動物管理要發(fā)展成為一門專業(yè)，管理者必須越來越多地尋求緩解這些人類與野生動物之間的沖突。通過這樣做，野生動物管理者將創(chuàng)建新的論壇，讓最廣泛的利益相關(guān)者參與到保護(hù)中來。為了幫助實現(xiàn)這一轉(zhuǎn)變，野生動物管理人員需要更好地了解人類與野生動物之間的沖突是如何發(fā)生的，以及為什么會發(fā)生。加強(qiáng)對正在發(fā)生的破壞的規(guī)模和類型的了解，管理當(dāng)?shù)剡^?；蛳∮幸吧鷦游锓N群所構(gòu)成的挑戰(zhàn)的技術(shù)，以及可執(zhí)行的溝通和擴(kuò)大戰(zhàn)略，將提高利益攸關(guān)方制定可行解決方案的能力。HWI致力于為野生動物管理者和所有利益相關(guān)者提供這方面的信息。

Human–Wildlife Interactions (HWI) is the only scientific journal dedicated specifically to publishing manuscripts that report research, management case studies, and policy perspectives designed to enhance the professional management of human–wildlife conflicts. If wildlife management is to grow as a profession, managers must increasingly seek to mitigate these human–wildlife conflicts. In doing so, wildlife managers will create new forums to engage the widest range of stakeholders in conservation. To assist in this transition, wildlife managers will need better information about how and why human–wildlife conflicts occur. Increased understanding of the magnitude and type of damage occurring, the techniques to manage challenges posed by locally overabundant or rare wildlife populations, and the communication and outreach strategies that can be implemented will increase the capacity of stakeholders to develop viable solutions. HWI is dedicated to providing wildlife managers and all stakeholders with this information.
