Adopt a hypothetical pup: A count data approach to the valuation of wildlife. [PDF]
The willingness to pay for a coyote conservation program is estimated using a novel payment-vehicle, based on how many coyotes respondents would be willing to sponsor. This hypothetical scenario mimics an increasingly popular type of actual market.

Food Subsidies Reduce Livestock Depredations by a Recovering Carnivore
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Diversionary feeding—providing food caches to divert predators away from preying on livestock—is a strategy to reduce depredations by Mexican gray wolves but has not been evaluated for its effectiveness. We used data from the Mexican wolf recovery program from 2014‐2021 to evaluate whether diversionary feeding reduced livestock depredations by wolf ...

Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.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 ...

Anticoagulant Rodenticides Contribute to a Decline in an Urban Carnivore
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) have been shown to negatively affect carnivores globally and are closely tied to human activity and development. We examined drivers of annual survival in bobcats persisting on a residentially developed barrier island over 16 years.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.Abstract People with Parkinson disease (PD) after surgery for deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN‐DBS) often decline in animal fluency due to impairments in executive functions and/or language. Item‐based measures of animal fluency may shed light on the specific nature of this decline, and into the strategies used when ...
