Abstract:

The two types of ecotourists have different impacts on both the local economy and the environment. The resort ecotourists are isolated to resorts. Each night is spent in the same place and tours consist of day hikes to local Indian villages and to the primary rainforest. These tourists aid the economy less than budget ecotourists because the employees that serve them are hired from outside the region and food goods for the tourists are imported into the region. In contrast, the budget ecotourists are spatially dispersed and travel each night to a new tourist camp. The budget ecotourists are es

Abstract:

Tourism is the fastest growing sector in the world. It represents 10% of the global GDP and generates one in 11 jobs. Nature tourism has become increasingly popular in the last few decades and it is predicted to keep increasing. Wildlife watching has initially been welcomed by conservation and environmental organisations as a conservation tool. However, we now know that these activities can have severe consequences for the environment and for the local communities. In this thesis, I have provided advice on the governance approaches and management tools that can be used to facilitate sustainabl

Abstract:

The conservation status of the widely-distributed whale shark Rhincodon typus is presently listed as 'Indeterminate - Data Deficient'. One of the main hindrances to obtaining biological data on whale sharks that is relevant to determining its 'conservation status' is that this species has rarely been recorded as occurring in sufficient numbers to obtain quantitative data. However, R. typus does form aggregations at Ningaloo Marine Park (NMP), Western Australia, annually between March and June. This has enabled studies to be made of aspects of the biology of R. typus and of the possible impacts

The industry can have positive outcomes for pinnipeds, through education and the promotion of conservation issues, or negative outcomes, such as causing the animals to abandon sites. The impact of tourism on pinnipeds needs to be minimal for the industry to be considered sustainable.
