Reconciling lethal control of an iconic native species (red der Cervus elaphus) with nature conservation within a multiple-use landscape.

Lead Research Organisation: University of Hull
Department Name: Biology

Abstract

In this project we will use the Lake District red deer population case study to develop a model for stakeholder engagement with the purpose of gaining consensus among stakeholders regarding the landscape-scale management of a renewable natural resource. We will:
1. Define the source of the problem - the red deer population and the stakeholder community.
2. Describe the nature of the problem - the balance of costs and benefits among the stakeholder community.
3. Identify the information needed to effectively manage the problem.
4. Produce a framework for consensus-building.
5. Implement the framework with the intention of achieving consensus among stakeholders.
