Excerpt

In this chapter, we examine the genetic influences on human response to wildlife. Musings about the nature of humans may seem unlikely to provide direction to wildlife professionals in their day-to-day dealings with wildlife; however, our beliefs about human nature shape our most basic assumptions about the cause of human action. What part of our response to wildlife is dictated by what we inherit and how we have evolved? Scientific thinking about the role of heritability has changed significantly over the past 25 years and has served to balance the mid-twentieth century view that most of our action and thought is shaped through cultural learning. For students of human–wildlife relationships, an examination of our biological foundations helps explore why our cognitive and emotional abilities have developed as they have. Clearly, wildlife are not merely incidental to this development. For example, authors such as Quammen (2003) and Hart and Sussman (2005) contend that the presence of predators influenced how humans developed both ecologically and psychologically. This chapter provides an introduction to the growing heritability literature as it relates to questions about human–wildlife relationships. …
