Delisting the Northern Rocky Mountain gray wolf from the US Endangered Species Act: an assessment of political discourse over 20 years

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Feared, revered, and politicized, wolves have long captured human imagination, and ignited fierce conservation conflicts. In the United States, the Endangered Species Act protects species at risk of extinction from human impacts. This far‐reaching legislation, which impacts development and state‐level wildlife management, has been fraught with legal ...

How to stay wild in a highly domesticated landscape? Spatiotemporal behaviour of wolves in Germany

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wild animals can adapt to the increasing presence of humans by either becoming accustomed to it or by avoiding humans by spatiotemporal separation. The return of the wolf to the German lowlands raised the opportunity to study wolf behaviour in one of the most densely populated and fragmented countries in Europe, in an area where topography offers no ...

Shifting attitudes toward brown bears in Bulgaria: a longitudinal and regional analysis

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Longitudinal research on public attitudes toward large carnivores is scarce, limiting our understanding of how human–wildlife coexistence evolves. This study aimed to bridge this gap by replicating a 2012 survey on attitudes toward brown bears Ursus arctos in four bear‐populated regions of Bulgaria.

Adaptive harvesting of two trophic levels stabilises predator–prey dynamics. Simulations with Eurasian lynx and European roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Europe has seen the recovery of many species of wild herbivores, which are now widespread across much of the continent. In addition, large carnivores are also recolonising many European countries. Most ungulates are managed through hunting, but natural predation can also have a significant influence in many areas.

Camera trap distance sampling for density estimation of tiger prey in a Sumatran ecosystem restoration concession

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Estimating prey species densities is critical for implementing effective tiger Panthera tigris recovery strategies. Several statistical models exist for density estimation of unmarked species from camera trap data, all of which rely on the random placement of cameras.
