This bibliography was constructed with the aim to provide the appropriate information on the different types of way that humans affect wildlife in New Zealand. Most of the research papers are case studies of the ways that humans influence ecotourism and affect the wildlife in a negative way. Another idea that a lot of the papers hit on is the increasing amount of ecotourism and how it is causing an increased effect to the ecosystem over time. A similarity and reason I chose all these papers is that the government owns all the land on which the ecotourism is being conducted on so had the ability to influence the interactions between human activity and wildlife that exists. This material should provide the appropriate knowledge to understand

Since this is the case those animals such as dolphins attracted more attention and caused people to indicate in the survey that they had more desire to engage in complain activities with these animals. The fact that the animals were seen as complains caused people to want to play with them, which can harm the animal and the habitat. An additional finding which was interesting was that women tended to disapprove of resource exploitation, culling and farming of native animals, and experimentation on animals than males did. All of the areas that were looked at in New Zealand were on government land, but seeing there was no obvious effects to the wildlife the practice of ecotourism were allowed to …show more content…
The effect of the arrival of the early settlers correlates to the start of a loss of species. It is shown how the numbers of humans around wildlife tends to have a negative relationship, as the number of humans increases the species tends to decrease. In the case of the Māui dolphin where there are only 55 left the authors show how ecotourism bring more people into their limited habitat will continue the trend of their fall in numbers.
While the number of species that have become extinct and are now being threatened with extinction are not able to specifically linked to ecotourism, the authors present the idea that humans being so close to wildlife is setting up the likely opportunity for more extinction to occur. Especially with ecotourism growing and more and more humans visiting the habitat of wildlife the authors recommend that more debate on environmental management is necessary to sustain biodiversity in the long
