Abstract
Hunters ’ preferences for diff

erent harvest principles and harvest regulations such as season length and harvest quotas

provide important knowledge for wildlife management. We report results from a survey of 2788 willow ptarmigan hunters

regarding commonly used harvest-principles and -regulations. A harvest quota strategy was the most preferred principle.

Hunters were in general more positive to an annual bag, than daily quotas. Age was a particularly strong predictor of the

‘ no winter hunt ’ (after 23 December) regulation, and also a fairly strong predictor for the per annum and per day quota

strategies respectively. Th

is study has shown that ptarmigan hunters prefer annual quotas, rather than shortened hunting

season or reduced number of hunters. We also emphasize the importance of social – ecological systems thinking when

adaptive management strategies are developed and that management strategy evaluation models should be used to evaluate

these strategies.
