Abstract:Human-wildlife conflict is a great challenge in biodiversity conservation today, and compensation for the damages of local people caused by wildlife is beneficial to the sustainable implementation of conservation and management policies. From July to September, 2019 and 2020, we estimated the population density of two main crop-destroy animals, wild boars (Sus scrofa) and Asian badger (Meles leucurus) by the line transect method; then from July to August, 2021, we investigated the situation of human-wildlife conflict, the implementation of wildlife damage compensation policy and willingness to accept by questionnaire survey method in Huairou District, Beijing. The results showed that the population density of wild boars was (6.283±1.274) ind/km2 and the population density of Asian badgers was (4.855 ±1.610) ind/km2, which were at a high level and caused large damage to the agricultural production. Local residents found that the frequency of damage incidents was increasing, and the existing prevention and control measures were not effective. They had a negative attitude toward wildlife, but still supported the protection policy. The wildlife damage compensation policy has been implemented in many villages, effectively compensating some of the losses, but there existed some problems like incomplete compensation coverage, vague compensation standards and low compensation amounts. The willingness to accept of residents was (10962.60±1751.55) yuan/hm2, which was negatively correlated with the education level, the satisfaction degree of damage compensation and wildlife protection attitude, and positively correlated with the support degree of animal protection policy. We suggested that the administrator should ensure the implementation of wildlife damage compensation policy and insurance system for wildlife, carry out long-term monitoring, control the wildlife population, and eventually change land-use patterns and provide alternative livelihoods to resolve human-wildlife conflict problems.
