Attitudes and activities related to urban wildlife: Pet owners and non-owners
2003
Bjerke, Tore | Østdahl, Torbjørn | Kleiven, Jo
A survey on attitudes toward common urban animal species was conducted in Trondheim, Norway. Owners of pet animals liked most of the 24 species included more than did non-pet owners. Only for less popular species (mosquitoes, rats, snails, and insects) were no differences found between the two groups. Pet owners also fed wildlife more often, and they participated more often in animal-related activities, compared with non-pet owners. Experiences of problems with animals did not seem to influence attitudes toward other species than those causing problems.
