Abstract Trade restrictions are often advocated and implemented as measures to protect wild species threatened by overexploitation. However, in some instances, their efficacy has been questioned, notably by governments in the southern African (SADC) region, which tend to favor a sustainable use approach to wildlife management. We conducted a systematic

M̓ṇúxvʔit model for centering Indigenous knowledge and governance
Abstract The importance of Indigenous (and local) knowledge and governance systems for addressing social and ecological crises is increasingly recognized. Unfortunately, attempts to incorporate Indigenous knowledge into Western approaches, often without the full leadership, consent, and participation of the peoples holding those knowledges, can cause ...

Abstract The inherent complexity of governing transboundary social–ecological systems like the Cubango‐Okavango River Basin (CORB) has given rise to various governance frameworks like integrated water resource management (IWRM) and adaptive governance. While these may work in theory and some specific contexts, current discordance between formal (state)

Abstract The present paper critically examines water‐assisted developmental projects and their associated conflicts through the lens of political ecology, with a particular focus on hydroelectric power generation in the Global South. These projects often catalyze localized socio‐cultural, political, and ecological tensions, especially in indigenous ...

An integrated historical study on human–tiger interactions in China 中国人虎互动关系的综合性历史研究
Tigers are important for maintaining a variety of life in the world as they are the top predators in the food chain. Human–wildlife conflict, including conflicts between humans and tigers, has been a global issue throughout history. This article focuses on human–tiger interactions in China, discussing various types of conflicts and measures for ...

Reframing wildlife disease management problems with decision analysis
Abstract Contemporary wildlife disease management is complex because managers need to respond to a wide range of stakeholders, multiple uncertainties, and difficult trade‐offs that characterize the interconnected challenges of today. Despite general acknowledgment of these complexities, managing wildlife disease tends to be framed as a scientific ...
