在热带地区，人类正在以前所未有的速度猎杀陆生野生动物供消费，这种捕捞往往是不可持续的，不仅对生物多样性和生态系统功能，而且对人类生计都有深远的影响。虽然这种做法的性质和影响已经在许多情况下和地方进行了研究，但缺乏对猎人决策和狩猎结果的社会，经济和环境决定因素的全面处理。在这篇综述中，我们讨论了狩猎方法和努力的影响，捕获的动物类型，收获的效率，以及这些因素对可持续性的影响。我们强调了当前理解的差距，并确定了最重要的数据要求。我们的方法提供了一个框架，为未来的研究设计到野生肉类狩猎及其影响，促进有效的针对优先领域的研究。
Terrestrial wildlife is being hunted for consumption by humans in the tropics at an unprecedented rate, and the often unsustainable nature of this harvest has profound implications not only for biodiversity and ecosystem function, but also for human livelihoods. Whilst the nature and impacts of this practice have been studied in numerous contexts and localities, a comprehensive treatment of the social, economic, and environmental determinants of both hunter decision-making and hunting outcomes has been lacking. In this review we discuss influences of hunting methods and effort on the types of animals caught, the efficiency of harvest, and the implications of these factors for sustainability. We highlight gaps in current understanding, and identify the most important data requirements. Our approach provides a framework for the design of future studies into wild meat hunting and its impacts, promoting the efficient targeting of priority areas of research.
