These\nconflicts are inherently complex and wildlife management faces many difficulties in\nattempting to anticipate and control them. Managing such conflicts involves the use\nof and reliance on spaces, data, and categories in deciding which wildlife\nmanagement strategies to implement. However, these factors are not self-evident and\ntherefore often highly contested. The employed wildlife management strategies are\ntypically based on rigid spaces, data and categories and are focused on controlling\nwild animals and separating them from humans.\nCohabitation between humans and wild animals is discussed as a suggested\nalternative to intense control of wild animals. Its focus is on a dynamic approach to\nspaces, data and categories, which has the potential to generate cohabitation\nstrategies that require the use of flexible and dynamic boundaries. This dynamic\napproach embraces an inclusive process that shifts focus from either humans or wild\nanimals to a process that focusses on the interactions between them and the landscape\nwhere these interactions take place. The emphasis is on the \u2018co\u2019 in co-habitation,\nreflecting the mutuality involved in these interactions, including mutual adjustments\nand mutual learning by both humans and wild animals. Such a mutual approach to\nunderstanding human-wild animal interactions relies on in-depth knowledge of both\nthe interactions and the complex of activities between human, wild animal and\nlandscape that are involved. This research seeks to advance insight into wildlife\nmanagement practices that are confronted by human-wildlife conflicts and explore\nways in which cohabitation might be achieved. The analytical focus is therefore on\nthe relations between humans, wild animals, and the landscape in which they dwell.\nSpecifically, the focus is on examining which spaces, data and categories articulated\nin wildlife management practices could contribute to bringing about cohabitation\nbetween humans and wild animals.
