人类与适应城市和郊区高人口密度的野生动物种群之间的冲突正在出现。为了应对这些威胁，动物控制计划通常旨在建立和维持稳定的种群。本文通过研究纽约州Irondequoit的城市鹿的管理来挑战这种观点。在确定性和随机性环境中，脉冲控制在各种条件下都比稳态控制更有效，但潜在的收益可能会因管理约束而消失。还调查了公民反对致命控制方法的影响。
Conflicts are emerging between humans and wildlife populations adaptable to the high density of humans found in urban and suburban areas. In response to these threats, animal control programs are typically designed with the objective of establishing and maintaining a stable population. This article challenges this view by studying the management of urban deer in Irondequoit, NY. Pulsing controls can be more efficient than steady-state regimes under a wide range of conditions in both deterministic and stochastic environments, but potential gains can be dissipated by management constraints. The effect of citizen opposition to lethal control methods is also investigated.
