초록

본 연구는 야생동물의 존재에 대한 인식 및 야생동물의 종류에 따라 국립공원 방문객의 휴양경험의 종류 및 질에 차이가 있는지를 알아보기 위해 시행되었다. 연구대상지역은 지리산국립공원이며 2014년 5-6월 중, 성삼재 휴게소와 노고단 대피소 이용객을 대상으로 편의 추출된 502명과 전남대학교 대학생을 대상으로 편의 추출된 173명의 표본으로 부터 모의조작 사진(곰과 고라니)과 자기기입식 설문지를 이용하여 자료를 수집하였다. 전반적으로 국립공원 내 서식 야생동물의 존재에 대한 인지에 따른 장소 속성에 대한 지각(혼잡성, 자연성, 안전성) 및 휴양경험의 종류에 차이가 없었다. 그러나 반달곰의 존재에 대한 인지도가 높은 그룹은 낮은 그룹에 비해 지리산국립공원이 '야생' 또는 '자연경험'에 더 가까운 휴양기회를 제공한다고 생각하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 야생동물의 종류에 따라서 장소속성에 대한 지각과 응답자가 느끼는 휴양경험의 종류에도 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 곰 또는 고라니 노출 그룹이 컨트롤 그룹에 비해 '야생'에 더 가까운 휴양경험을 느꼈다. 국립공원 내 야생동물의 존재는 응답자의 휴양경험의 질에 긍정적 작용을 하는 것으로 나타났으며 야생동물의 종류에 따라서도 응답자가 느끼는 휴양경험의 질에 차이가 있었다. 본 연구의 결과에 대한 시사점을 국립공원 야생동물의 관리적 관점에서 제시하였다.

This study examined the effects of wildlife or wildlife species on national park visitors' perception of place attributes and recreational experiences. Data were collected from 502 users of Seongsamjae Rest area and Nogodan Shelter area in Jirisan National Park and 173 college students during May-June 2014 using survey questionnaire. Some simulated photographs of water deer and Asiatic black bears were used for the college student survey. Overall, awareness about wildlife inhabiting in Jirisan National Park (AW) was not related with one's perception of place attributes (PPA) (i.e., crowdedness, naturalness, safety) and types of visitors' recreational experiences. Respondents with higher awareness about the presence of Asiatic black bear (AABB), however, tended to perceive Jirisan National Park as a place that provides 'wild' or 'natural' recreational opportunities compared to those with lower AABB. Differences in PPA (i.e., crowdedness, naturalness, safety) and types of recreational experiences were also found to be influenced by wildlife species. Respondents exposed to bear or water deer tended to perceive their recreational experiences as more 'wild'. Existence of wildlife in Jirisan National Park had a positive effect on the quality of visitors' recreational experiences. Different wildlife species showed different levels of effectiveness to quality enhancement of recreational experience. Some practical implications of the study were discussed from a managerial point of view.
