Views from the hill: Deer stalkers' perspectives on land‐use change in the Scottish Highlands
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Land‐use and wildlife management are changing globally as part of efforts to address contemporary environmental challenges. In the Scottish Highlands, the hunting—or ‘stalking’—of deer has entered a period of considerable flux primarily because of national policy changes to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss.
