In wildlife management, differing perspectives among stakeholders generate conflicts about how to achieve disparate sustainability goals that include ecological, economic, and sociocultural dimensions. To mitigate such conflicts, decisions regarding wildlife management must be taken thoughtfully. To our knowledge, there exists no integrative modeling framework to inform these decisions, considering all dimensions of sustainability. We constructed a decision-support tool based on stakeholder workshops and a Bayesian decision network to inform management of wild ruminants in the federal state of Lower Austria. We use collaborative decision analysis to compare resource allocations while accounting for trade-offs among dimensions of sustainability. The tool is designed for application by non-technical users across diverse decision-making contexts with particular sets of wildlife management actions, objectives, and uncertainties. Our tool represents an important step toward developing and evaluating a transparent and replicable approach for mitigating wildlife-based conflicts in Europe and beyond.

在野生动物管理中，利益相关者之间的不同观点会在如何实现不同的可持续发展目标（包括生态、经济和社会文化层面）方面产生冲突。为了缓解此类冲突，必须深思熟虑地做出有关野生动物管理的决定。据我们所知，考虑到可持续性的各个方面，不存在综合建模框架来为这些决策提供信息。我们构建了一个基于利益相关者研讨会和贝叶斯决策网络的决策支持工具，为下奥地利联邦州的野生反刍动物管理提供信息。我们使用协作决策分析来比较资源分配，同时考虑可持续性各个维度之间的权衡。该工具专为非技术用户在不同的决策环境中应用而设计，具有特定的野生动物管理行动、目标和不确定性。我们的工具代表了朝着开发和评估透明且可复制的方法迈出的重要一步，以减轻欧洲及其他地区因野生动物而产生的冲突。
