Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird
Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 4, Page 443-454, August 2026.Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...
