Complex Human-Shark Conflicts Confound Conservation Action
Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2021 Human-wildlife conflicts are a growing phenomenon globally as human populations expand and wildlife interactions become more commonplace. While these conflicts have been well-defined in terrestrial systems, marine forms are less well-understood.

Spatial Pattern Analysis Reveals Randomness Among Carnivore Depredation of Livestock
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Carnivore depredation of livestock is a global problem which negatively impacts both agropastoral livelihoods and carnivore population viability.

A Device to Record the Specific Time an Artificial Nest is Depredated
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 We designed a timing device that records the calendar date and time of a depredation event on an artificial nest. The clock was simple to construct and successful in field trials, with only 6% failure (3 of 48 clocks).

Do artificial nests simulate nest success of greater sage-grouse?
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Artificial nests have been used to study factors affecting nest success because researchers can manipulate them more than natural bird nests. Many researchers have questioned the validity of generalizing the results from artificial nests onto naturally ...

WILD TURKEY DEPREDATION OF COMMERCIALLY GROWN GRAPES
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2015 : With successful restoration of wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo; hereafter, turkey) has come concerns among some agricultural producers about potential crop depredation.

Examining human–carnivore interactions using a socio-ecological framework: sympatric wild canids in India as a case study [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Many carnivores inhabit human-dominated landscapes outside protected reserves. Spatially explicit assessments of carnivore distributions and livestock depredation patterns in human-use landscapes are crucial for minimizing negative interactions and ...
