Large carnivore hunting and the social license to hunt
Conservation Biology, 2020 The social license to operate framework considers how society grants or withholds informal permission for resource extractors to exploit publicly owned resources. We developed a modified model, which we refer to as the social license to hunt (SLH). In it

Hierarchical multi-species modeling of carnivore responses to hunting, habitat and prey in a West African protected area. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Protected areas (PAs) are a cornerstone of global efforts to shield wildlife from anthropogenic impacts, yet their effectiveness at protecting wide-ranging species prone to human conflict--notably mammalian carnivores--is increasingly in question.

Cascading impacts of large-carnivore extirpation in an African ecosystem
Science, 2019 Ecosystems feel war's effects War ravages human lives and landscapes, but nonhuman victims are no less affected. The Mozambican Civil War resulted in the rapid decline of predators in Gorongosa National Park and led to a trophic cascade that shifted prey

Carcass appearance does not influence scavenger avoidance of carnivore carrion
Scientific Reports, 2022 The selection or avoidance of certain carrion resources by vertebrate scavengers can alter the flow of nutrients in ecosystems. Evidence suggests higher trophic level carrion is scavenged by fewer vertebrate species and persists longer when compared to ...

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The carnivorous plant genus Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae) exhibits remarkable floral diversity associated with pollination, particularly in the largest subgenus Temnoceras, which spans Mexico and Central America. Despite this diversity, the relationships between species and the evolution of key floral traits remain unresolved. Here, we
