The pandemic and climate change are changing the way park practitioners need to manage conflicts with wildlife.
In this Peer Conversation, you’ll hear how one large urban park is addressing increasing conflicts between people and coyotes driven by changes to habitat usage and human behavior. Participants will learn how the pandemic resulted in changes to human-coyote conflicts and how British Columbia developed a four-pillared approach to coexistence, including attractant management, enforcement, education, and aversion conditioning.
