  abstract = {{H}uman-wildlife cooperation is a type of mutualism in which a human and a wild, free-living animal actively coordinate their behaviour to achieve a common beneficial outcome. {W}hile other cooperative human-animal interactions involving captive coercion or artificial selection (including domestication) have received extensive attention, we lack integrated insights into the ecology and evolution of human-wildlife cooperative interactions. {H}ere, we review and synthesise the function, mechanism, development, and evolution of human-wildlife cooperation. {A}ctive cases involve people cooperating with greater honeyguide birds and with two dolphin species, while historical cases involve wolves and orcas. {I}n all cases, a food source located by the animal is made available to both species by a tool-using human, coordinated with cues or signals. {T}he mechanisms mediating the animal behaviours involved are unclear, but they may resemble those underlying intraspecific cooperation and reduced neophobia. {T}he skills required appear to develop at least partially by social learning in both humans and the animal partners. {A}s a result, distinct behavioural variants have emerged in each type of human-wildlife cooperative interaction in both species, and human-wildlife cooperation is embedded within local human cultures. {W}e propose multiple potential origins for these unique cooperative interactions, and highlight how shifts to other interaction types threaten their persistence. {F}inally, we identify key questions for future research. {W}e advocate an approach that integrates ecological, evolutionary and anthropological perspectives to advance our understanding of human-wildlife cooperation. {I}n doing so, we will gain new insights into the diversity of our ancestral, current and future interactions with the natural world. {R}ead the free {P}lain {L}anguage {S}ummary for this article on the {J}ournal blog.},
