Abstract
This article examines the management of visitor pressure in two protected mountain areas, the Vosges and the Caroux, through the lens of two emblematic species: the Western Capercaillie and the mouflon. These animals embody the tensions between conservation and public access, particularly in relation to habitat fragmentation caused by human presence. Managers employ strategies combining concrete spatial measures and visitor mediation. The Western Capercaillie and mouflon represent a complex dynamic of attraction and avoidance, being symbolically valued while protected from direct encounters. The study highlights their role as prototype animals: mediating figures that structure and guide management policies in protected areas, while symbolizing the trade-offs between recreational use and ecological preservation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
