The newly released Guide to Managing Human–Wildlife Interactions: Methods and Case Studies proposes a shift in how we understand relationships between people and wildlife. Rather than offering quick fixes to prevent conflicts with jaguars, pumas, or bats, it provides a roadmap for understanding these interactions, incorporating community knowledge, and developing solutions.

The publication explains how to properly identify species and contribute to their sustainable management in Colombia’s Pacific and Caribbean waters. It includes illustrations and distinctive features to facilitate identification, as well as information on common and scientific names and on less common species that may occasionally appear in catches.
