“…In evolutionary terms, the islands that make up the country had no land-based mammals except bats, which led to a terrestrial ecosystem dominated by birds, a large percentage of which are endemic and now threatened with the introduction of mammalian predators (Craig et al 2000). The uniqueness and predominance of New Zealand's birds has given them special status within New Zealand's cultural identity (Star 2002).…”

Sport and recreational conflict in natural areas arises from growth in the diversity of, and demand for, nature-based sport activities and recreation pursuits. The social sustainability of such activities within a tourism context should recognize that conflicts between different users are complex and dynamic, not simply the result of goal interference or competition for scarce resources. This paper critically explores the complexities of sport hunting and recreational conflict using quantitative and qualitative techniques implemented on Stewart Island, New Zealand. The empirical research points to an ambiguity of feelings and attitudes concerning the relationship and potential/real conflicts between sport hunters and recreational hikers. While some reportedly experienced actual conflict, quantitative methods did in fact highlight many common elements of motivation and environmental values that are shared by both hunters and hikers. Interviews and participant observations highlighted three key elements of the outdoor sport/recreation experience that provide potential for conflict.These included user group characteristics, hut behaviour/etiquette and the use of firearms/killing of animals. We propose that conflict is an integral part of society and hence considerable effort should focus on accurately understanding conflict situations.The results support the need for management based on integration rather than segregation, and may be viewed as a move away from reactive management based on relatively isolated instances of goal interference, towards a social sustainability paradigm founded upon a nuanced understanding of conflict phenomena.

“…Further, the US experience does not hold for all protected areas across the world, especially for those areas where native peoples have demonstrated extensive opposition to park establishment (e.g., see Wright and Mattson, 1996;Tucker et al, 2005). Nevertheless there have been a number of studies that support the "worthless lands" hypothesis (Hampton, 1981;Hall and Shultis, 1991;Star, 2002), demonstrating a bias toward the preservation of mountainous areas in large parts of the world (Rouget et al, 2003).…”
