Carnivore resource subsidies to support predator reintroductions and mitigate threats to reintroduced prey

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 89, Issue 5, July 2025.
Supplementary feeding of reintroduced carnivores is a tool that may increase translocation success and ease predation pressure on prey populations at critical times. In this study, we monitored the activity of native prey, and the activity and diet of a reintroduced predator, the western quoll (Dasyurus geoffroii), around carcass feeding stations in an
