“…Both the human reaction to an event (positive versus negative) and the resulting behavior from an impact affect wildlife, e.g., decisions about pest control (Morzillo and Mertig 2011 a, b), and are influenced by complex interactions among human characteristics (Fig. 1c), such as environmental values and value orientations (e.g., Fulton et al 1996, Riley et al 2002, Zinn and Pierce 2002, Kaltenborn et al 2012, attitudes toward wildlife (e.g., Morzillo et al 2007, Krester et al 2009a, McDonald et al 2012, Urbanek et al 2013, interest in seeing wildlife (e.g., Morzillo et al 2007), attitudes toward particular species (e.g., Daniels and Kirkpatrick 2011), risk perception (Gore et al 2007), and other cognitive and motivational variables (Fulton et al 1996, Whittaker et al 2001, Baruch-Mordo et al 2011, Luther 2013. Collectively, these constructs influence and interact with each other, i.e., feedbacks, to form the basis for human cognitive and motivational perceptions and dynamics of human-wildlife relationships, i.e., "impact-based feedbacks" (e.g., Manfredo et al 2009, Decker et al 2012, and drivers of wildlife management as part of environmental policy ( Fig.…”
