초록

서식지 파편화로 발생하는 야생동물과 차량과의 충돌사고(이하 '로드킬')를 방지하기 위해 2000년대 후반부터 야생동물이동통로가 활발하게 설치되었으나 로드킬 발생은 여전히 감소하지 않고 있어 야생동물이동통로의 실효성 분석이 필요하며, 설치 이후 단편화된 유지관리로 인해 야생동물이동통로에 대한 평가 및 기능개선을 위한 관리기법이 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 야생동물이동통로의 유지관리를 위한 기본방향 및 관리기법을 제시하기 위해 현재 설치 운영되고 있는 367개 이동통로에 적용할 수 있는 평가항목과 항목별 중요도를 AHP 기법에 의해 파악하였다. 분석결과, 평가항목은 3단계로 구분할 수 있었으며 총 10개 평가항목이 도출되었다. 야생동물이동통로의 유지관리를 위한 우선순위 도출을 목표(Level 1)로 시설인자, 환경인자, 동물인자, 관리인자로 구성된 Level 2의 중요도 분석에서는 환경인자가 가장 중요한 것으로 나타났다. Level 3에서는 구조 적합성(시설인자), 주변지형과의 조화(환경인자), 야생동물 이용빈도(동물인자), 모니터링 기기 운영여부(관리인자)가 중요 평가항목으로 조사되었다. 즉 야생동물이동통로의 유지관리를 위해서는 주변지형과의 조화와 야생동물 이용빈도를 우선적으로 고려해야 할 것이다. 이같은 연구 결과는 우리나라에 설치되어 있는 야생동물이동통로의 유지관리 방향 및 각 이동통로의 정비전략을 모색하기 위한 평가자료로 활용될 수 있다.

The rapid increase of wildlife passage installation since the late 2000s was aimed to reduce roadkill caused by habitat fragmentation and losses related to road construction, but wildlife-vehicle collisions are now still occurred even near the wildlife passage area. This is the reason that the effectiveness of wildlife passage have not been evaluated in combination with absence of monitoring data and management strategy of the wildlife passage. The AHP method are used, in this study, to identify the evaluation factors affecting the effectiveness of the present 367 wildlife passages in a mitigation measures to reduce road effects on wildlife species. Ten evaluation factors are derived from third levels in the AHP analysis. Priority setting to identify appropriate management strategies in first level is selected among four second levels on facility, environment, wildlife species and management tool. The AHP analysis suggested that neighboring environments are the most important factor at the second level, and passage structure, harmony with natural surroundings, wildlife occurrence and monitoring of the passage are also important factors at the third levels. In summary, effective measurements of wildlife passage management is based on managing the passage with neighboring topography and natural surrounding. This is useful to establish wildlife passage management strategy in order to reduce the negative effects of roads on wildlife species.
