Exploitation and depredation rates determine viability of depredation-impacted fisheries [PDF]
Depredation can broadly affect marine socio-ecological systems, yet it has been little studied via modelling approaches. Here we used qualitative mathematical modelling of system feedback (Puccia and Levins’ loop analysis) and a system of ordinary differential equations to represent major interactions between a fishery, an exploited stock and a ...

Exploring odontocete depredation rates in a pelagic longline fishery. [PDF]
Several odontocete species depredate catch and bait from fishing gear, resulting in their bycatch and causing substantial economic costs. There are no known mitigation methods for odontocete depredation in pelagic longline fisheries that are effective ...

Predation is a major evolutionary force in animal ecology. Mechanisms by which prey coloration provides camouflage has been widely studied. However, predator response to prey camouflage and concealment has received less attention. Understanding vegetation structure effect on depredation success could help managers design strategies to mitigate the ...

WILD TURKEY DEPREDATION OF COMMERCIALLY GROWN GRAPES
: With successful restoration of wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo; hereafter, turkey) has come concerns among some agricultural producers about potential crop depredation.

Modeling the relationship between wolf control and cattle depredation.
Wolf control to reduce cattle depredation is an important issue to ecology and agriculture in the United States. Two recent papers use the same dataset having wolf population characteristics and cattle depredation, but come to opposing conclusions ...

Dynamic primary resources, not just wild prey availability, underpin lion depredation of livestock in a savanna ecosystem [PDF]
Because it can lead to retaliatory killing, livestock depredation by large carnivores is among the foremost threats to carnivore conservation, and it severely impacts human well‐being worldwide.

CROP DEPREDATION BY WILDLIFE IN NORTHCENTRAL INDIANA
: Perceptions of agricultural producers concerning crop depredation may influence wildlife management decisions. We quantified the amount, type, and temporal pattern of damage to corn (Zea maize) and soybeans (Glycine max) by wild turkey (Meleagris ...

Toothed whale and shark depredation indicators: A case study from the Reunion Island and Seychelles pelagic longline fisheries. [PDF]
Depredation in marine ecosystems is defined as the damage or removal of fish or bait from fishing gear by predators. Depredation raises concerns about the conservation of species involved, fisheries yield and profitability, and reference points based on ...
