مونوگرافی گونه خرس قهوه‌ای (Ursus arctos)

Brown bear (Ursus arctos) is classified as a Least Concern (LC) species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), but its distribution have decreased as the largest carnivore in the country during last decades, and hence it is important to protect its habitats. The correct management of the conflict between humans and wildlife requires a detailed understanding of the perception of risk from the point of view of local communities and the impact of socio-economic and cultural factors on people's attitudes. One of the most important conservation strategies for a large carnivore species such as the bear, which has long migration behavior, low population density, high conflict and extensive conservation needs, is connecting habitats and defining new intermediate protected areas in the target area based on map outputs. The desirability of the habitat. Also, organizing scattered livestock farms in desirable areas, implementing educational programs, and more importantly, paying for damages caused by bears to rural communities are very important in reducing conflict and retaliatory measures. Therefore, in this article, some of the projects carried out in the field of better management of the brown bear species have been introduced and reviewed.
