Abstract:
     Increasing recreational use of wildlands conflicts with wildlife preservation goals for these areas. Unfortunately, our understanding of recreational impacts on wildlife is poor. We need to (1) understand the responses of wildlife to recreational activities, (2) understand the factors that influence the nature and magnitude of impacts, (3) improve research methods, and (4) develop and implement new management strategies.
