14. Monitor community shifts in wildlife value orientation The Wildlife Values study described 4 value orientation audiences: Utilitarians - “Wildlife are for human use.” Positive toward hunting & fishing. Mutualists - “Wildlife are part of an extended family.” See ideal world where humans wildlife live together without fear. Pluralists - BOTH Utilitarian AND Mutualist. Distanced - Neither relate to the use or the inclusion of wildlife in their lives. Less attracted to & more concerned about safety around wildlife.

23. Thanks for ‘ bearing ’ with me. Any questions? Resilience Recommendations for Utah Establish a statewide thematic eco-tourism framework to share on-site & virtual stories about Utahns’ conservation stewardship relationships with the land, water, and wildlife that target enhancing the resilience of communities, reducing the risks of socio-economic and ecological threats, and attracting visitors from both in & out of state. Forge a statewide Alliance across Utah’s private and public sectors centered on learning, trying, and adopting sound Community Conservation Stewardship Practices in part by providing story-telling based ecotourism programs and events.
