Abstrakt

Niedźwiedź brunatny (Ursus arctos) jest największym lądowym drapieżnikiem Europy i ważnym elementem przyrodniczego dziedzictwa kontynentu. W artykule syntetycznie przedstawiono aktualny stan wiedzy o atakach niedźwiedzi na ludzi w Europie. Omówiono typy ataków, ich sezonowość, czynniki ryzyka oraz charakterystykę osobników biorących w nich udział. Zebrane dane wskazują, że większość incydentów ma charakter obronny i kończy się obrażeniami niezagrażającymi życiu. Najwięcej przypadków odnotowano w Rumunii, podczas gdy w pozostałych krajach europejskich ataki mają charakter sporadyczny. Uwzględniono również kontekst społeczny i polityczny konfliktu człowiek–niedźwiedź, w tym różnice między percepcją zagrożenia a rzeczywistym ryzykiem oraz wyzwania stojące przed zarządzaniem populacjami. Podkreślono znaczenie edukacji, ograniczania dostępności pokarmu antropogenicznego oraz międzynarodowej współpracy w zmniejszaniu ryzyka konfrontacji.
