First, read “UW research shows racism and redlining hurt local wildlife, too (https://crosscut.com/environment/2020/08/uw-research-shows-racism-and-redlining-hurt-local-wildlife-too)” by Hannah Weinberger. Reflect on the answer to the following question:
- Why is this topic dependent on multiple perspectives to gain a deeper understanding of the issues, balanced judgement and in some cases, a solution to damaging interactions between humans and wildlife?
Second, search for three articles that are on topics about human-wildlife relationships in urban areas.
- Use the UWB Library research guide Housing justice(https://guides.lib.uw.edu/c.php?g=1114809&p=8128359&preview=cae28d3d91b472ae3e855a25beb7c35a), Urban ecology(https://guides.lib.uw.edu/c.php?g=1114809&p=8128359&preview=cae28d3d91b472ae3e855a25beb7c35a), Community health to search for articles.
- Look for articles that are related to housing justice, urban ecology and community health. In other words, ask yourself, what does housing justice have to do with human-wildlife relationships? Reflect on the work by Dr. Schell.
- Today, many fields of study are dependent on a variety of methods, skills, understandings and even attitudes that stem from disciplinary knowledge systems. For example, housing justice is a field of study that is informed by law, economics, sociology, geography, political science and cultural studies, to name a few. Reflect on the answer to the following question: What disciplines have shaped the fields of urban ecology and community health?
- Dr. Chris Schell’s research is also a good place to start and you can use his work as one or more of your reference articles. Keep in mind, there are many different kinds of urban animals including crows, racoons, rats and even pollinators like bumblebees. Last year there was a cougar sighting at Discovery Park in Seattle! Wildlife are dependent on habitat – forests, fruit trees, grasslands, gardens, etc. Reflect on the answer to the following question: Where do you find animal habitat in urban areas?
Third, read and report out on your findings.
- Read the three articles that you selected in your search.
- Describe how human-wildlife relationships in urban areas relates to Housing justice, Urban ecology and Community health.
- Include in-text citations and a reference list. Be sure to support your claims.
