What role does social and economic research play in wildlife management?

  1. Determining new hunting territories

  2. Balancing interests for fair distribution of wildlife

  3. Marketing wildlife as a tourist attraction

  4. Estimating the economic value of hunting

The correct answer is: Balancing interests for fair distribution of wildlife

Social and economic research plays a crucial role in wildlife management because it helps to balance the interests of different stakeholders who have varying interests in wildlife. Without this research, it would be difficult to determine fair distribution of wildlife resources for sustainable use. The other options are incorrect because A is not the primary purpose of social and economic research in wildlife management, C is only one aspect of wildlife management and not its sole purpose, and D focuses only on economic factors rather than considering the broader social and environmental impacts of wildlife management.
