Abstract Wildlife reintroduction projects are required to account for social and economic factors. Wildlife tourism is often cited as a benefit of reintroduction, so an understanding of whether and how this manifests is required. Through a case study of a village in the catchment of a live reintroduction project (Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) in England) we reveal how reintroduced species tourism has economic benefit for local business, but the scale of benefit is dependent upon business initiatives that take the opportunity (eg merchandise, marketing etc.). We suggest reintroduction practitioners should actively encourage local businesses to maximise opportunities, especially where tourism is cited as a reason to reintroduce. We recommend further research into whether benefits remain in the long-term, but speculate some value will persist. Finally, we recognise reintroduction-related wildlife tourism may interact with other local issues, but seeing a reintroduced species or signs of its activity can produce positive emotional responses.

重新引入项目中的野生动物旅游:探索当地环境中海狸的社会和经济效益

摘要 野生动物重新引入项目需要考虑社会和经济因素。野生动物旅游经常被认为是重新引入的好处,因此需要了解这是否以及如何体现。通过对活体重新引入项目(英格兰的欧亚海狸(蓖麻纤维))集水区的一个村庄进行案例研究,我们揭示了重新引入物种旅游业如何为当地企业带来经济效益,但收益的规模取决于采取机会(例如商品、营销等)。我们建议重新引入从业者应积极鼓励当地企业最大限度地利用机会,尤其是在以旅游业为重新引入理由的情况下。我们建议进一步研究长期收益是否仍然存在,但推测某些价值将持续存在。
