Although rat eradication has succeeded on many islands, tropical islands present unique management challenges. Strict regulations and financial constraints on some tropical islands further limit proven eradication methods, complicating rodent ...

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Conserving threatened species often requires effective predator suppression strategies, particularly on islands where introduced predators pose significant threats. Density‐impact functions provide a framework to quantify the relationships between predator abundance and impact but are currently limited to a single species with invariant impact.
