Detectability and predator strategy affect egg depredation rates: Implications for mitigating nest depredation in farmlands

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2022
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 ...

Depredation Claim Behavior and Tolerance of Wildlife in Wyoming [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 2000
AbstractWyoming Game and Fish Department depredation payments were established to increase landowner tolerance toward, and thus the supply of, certain types of wildlife. This study examined how socio-economic and demographic characteristics of farmers and ranchers in Wyoming relate to tolerance toward wildlife and depredation claim submission.

Exploring odontocete depredation rates in a pelagic longline fishery.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
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 ...
