Exploitation and depredation rates determine viability of depredation-impacted fisheries [PDF]
Ecological Modelling, 2023 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]
PLoS ONESeveral 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 ...

Dynamic primary resources, not just wild prey availability, underpin lion depredation of livestock in a savanna ecosystem [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionBecause 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.

Toothed whale and shark depredation indicators: A case study from the Reunion Island and Seychelles pelagic longline fisheries. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 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 ...

The Integral Nature of Encounter Rate in Predicting Livestock Depredation Risk
Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2022 Carnivore depredation of livestock is one of the primary drivers of human-carnivore conflict globally, threatening the well-being of livestock owners, and fueling large carnivore population declines. Interventions designed to reduce carnivore depredation

Ecosphere, 2021 False killer whales (Pseudorca crassidens) depredate bait and catch in the Hawai‘i‐based deep‐set longline fishery, and as a result, this species is hooked or entangled more than any other cetacean in this fishery. We analyzed data collected by fisheries
