Abstract

In private land dominated landscapes, the landowners’ role identities may affect land management behaviors that, in turn, can dramatically influence native biodiversity. We conducted a mail survey of landowners of >40 ha properties in the Gulf Coast Prairie of Texas, categorized them, identified characteristics that varied among them, described their wildlife-beneficial management practices and role commitment. Hierarchical clustering produced 5 landowner role identity types (Working Place, Entire Place, Amenity, Lifestyle, and Conservation) based upon their self-representations. Working Place and Entire Place landowners had the highest place-based motivations and were the most numerous and active land managers, while Conservation landowners engaged in fewer management practices despite holding pro-conservation motivations. Lifestyle landowners had the highest proportion of retirees, and employed the fewest management practices. Our work describes landowner role identities and how these can help more broadly inform the strategies that are used to target and engage landowners in wildlife-beneficial management.

基于地点的土地所有者身份:对野生动物保护的影响

摘要

在私人土地主导的景观中,土地所有者的角色身份可能会影响土地管理行为,反过来又会极大地影响本地生物多样性。我们对德克萨斯州墨西哥湾沿岸草原超过 40 公顷的土地所有者进行了邮件调查,对他们进行了分类,确定了他们之间的不同特征,描述了他们对野生动物有益的管理实践和角色承诺。分层聚类根据他们的自我表现产生了 5 种土地所有者角色身份类型(工作场所、整个场所、便利设施、生活方式和保护)。工作场所和整个场所的土地所有者具有最高的基于场所的动机,并且是最多和最活跃的土地管理者,而保护性土地所有者尽管持有支持保护的动机,但从事的管理实践较少。生活方式的土地所有者拥有最高比例的退休人员,并采用最少的管理实践。我们的工作描述了土地所有者的角色身份以及这些身份如何有助于更广泛地告知用于针对和让土地所有者参与有利于野生动物的管理的策略。
