Transdisciplinary deficit in large carnivore conservation funding in Europe [PDF]
Nature Conservation, 2022 Achieving coexistence between humans and large carnivores in human-shaped landscapes is a complex challenge. Addressing this challenge requires the revaluation of the approaches academia uses to foster carnivore conservation and human-large carnivore ...

Identification of carnivore kill sites is improved by verified accelerometer data
Animal Biotelemetry, 2020 Background Quantifying kill rates is central to understanding predation ecology. However, estimating kill rates and prey composition in carnivore diets is challenging due to their low densities and cryptic behaviors limiting direct observations ...

Examining human–carnivore interactions using a socio-ecological framework: sympatric wild canids in India as a case study [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Many carnivores inhabit human-dominated landscapes outside protected reserves. Spatially explicit assessments of carnivore distributions and livestock depredation patterns in human-use landscapes are crucial for minimizing negative interactions and ...

Changes in the structure and functionof the North Sea fish foodweb, 1973-2000, and the impacts of fishing and climate [PDF]
, 2005 North Sea environmental and biological data were analysed to examine 30-year changes in production and consumption in the fish food web. The analysis revealed that the demand for secondary production placed on the ecosystem by fish declined from ...

Forest structure has stronger effects than cattle occurrence on the occupancy of a carnivore guild
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Anthropogenic activities can profoundly affect ecological communities. This is true of the most ubiquitous type of anthropogenic land-use, livestock grazing. While livestock grazing is known to impact vegetation structure, soil, and hydrological features,

The Integral Nature of Encounter Rate in Predicting Livestock Depredation Risk
Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2022 Carnivore depredation of livestock is one of the primary drivers of human-carnivore conflict globally, threatening the well-being of livestock owners, and fueling large carnivore population declines. Interventions designed to reduce carnivore depredation
