Conflicts between human and wildlife is one of the most important threats to many wildlife species. Therefore, identifying the causes of conflict in wildlife management is essential. The aim of this study was to investigate the local people attitudes toward Asiatic Black Bear, determine factors influencing the conflict, and predict the probability of conflict using the occurrence data of conflict and Maxent modelling in south of Kerman provinceThe study was conducted in three regions of the south Kerman province including Bahr-Asman protected area and Zaryab wildlife refuge in Jiroft county and Marz protected area in Ghaleh-ganj county. In order to complete the questionnaire, 199 people in 19 villages were interviewed. The conservation attitude of local people was related to variables such as age, gender, education levels and knowledge toward Asiatic Black Bear through Beta Regression. Gender was the most important variable affecting the conservation attitude of the respondents. Moreover, women compared to men and farmers compared to employees and livestock growers had a more positive attitude toward Asiatic Black Bear. In order to investigate the probability of conflict in the study area, Maxent modelling was performed using 10 environmental variables including elevation, slope, mean annual rainfall, and distance to water, river, road, village, farmlands, orchards, and forest. Results showed that the probability of conflict was higherin the north of study area. Distance to village, annual rainfall, altitude and distance to farmlands were the most important predictor variables determining the conflict with Asiatic Black Bear. Finally, having collected occurrence locations where no conflict with black bear was reported, the factors affecting the conflictwere investigated usingLogic Regression. The results indicated that accessibility to water sources was the key variable.
