Are We Coexisting With Carnivores in the American West? [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Human-carnivore coexistence is an oft-stated goal but assumptions about what constitutes coexistence can lead to goal misalignment and undermine policy and program efficacy.

The ecology of human-carnivore coexistence. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2020 Significance The persistence of large carnivores in human-dominated landscapes will become increasingly challenging as the human footprint expands. Here, we bring together long-term demographic and behavioral data on one of the worlds’ most conflict-prone species, the brown bear, to quantify the mechanisms facilitating human–carnivore

Coexistence of predators in time: Effects of season and prey availability on species activity within a Mediterranean carnivore guild [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 The degree of coexistence among predators can determine the structure of ecological communities. Niche partitioning is a common strategy applied by species to enhance their coexistence.

Mainstreaming human and large carnivore coexistence through institutional collaboration
Conservation Biology, 2019 Abstract Achieving coexistence between large carnivores and humans in human‐dominated landscapes (HDLs) is a key challenge for societies globally. This challenge cannot be adequately met with the current sectoral approaches to HDL governance and an academic community largely dominated by disciplinary sectors.

Integrating robotics into wildlife conservation: testing improvements to predator deterrents through movement [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background Agricultural and pastoral landscapes can provide important habitat for wildlife conservation, but sharing these landscapes with wildlife can create conflict that is costly and requires managing.

Using incentive payments to promote human–carnivore coexistence [PDF]
Conservation BiologyAbstract For many large carnivores, minimizing the financial burden they impose on local people is critical to their conservation. Incentive‐based programs that provide people with financial benefits for taking pro‐conservation actions or achieving conservation goals are a promising tool for promoting human–carnivore coexistence ...

Effectiveness of non-lethal predator deterrents to reduce livestock losses to leopard attacks within a multiple-use landscape of the Himalayan region [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Lethal measures are widely adopted by local communities and governments to manage human-wildlife conflicts. Such measures lead to large scale decline of carnivore populations globally with trophic cascades on ecosystems and questionable impacts on human ...
