Transdisciplinary deficit in large carnivore conservation funding in Europe [PDF]

open access: yesNature 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

open access: yesAnimal 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 ...

Comparative efficacy of sign surveys, spotlighting and audio playbacks in a landscape-scale carnivore survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Many carnivores are difficult and labour-intensive to detect, often leading to prohibitively high effort and cost in large-scale surveys. However, such studies provide information that is important for effective management and conservation.

Examining human–carnivore interactions using a socio-ecological framework: sympatric wild canids in India as a case study [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal 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 ...

Spatial capture–recapture with multiple noninvasive marks: An application to camera‐trapping data of the European wildcat (Felis silvestris) using R package multimark

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
In Switzerland, the European wildcat (Felis silvestris), a native felid, is protected by national law. In recent decades, the wildcat has slowly returned to much of its original range and may have even expanded into new areas that were not known to be ...

Can we save large carnivores without losing large carnivore science? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Large carnivores are depicted to shape entire ecosystems through top-down processes. Studies describing these processes are often used to support interventionist wildlife management practices, including carnivore reintroduction or lethal control programs.

Forest structure has stronger effects than cattle occurrence on the occupancy of a carnivore guild

open access: yesGlobal 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,
