Farmers versus wolves: how geographic, social cognitive, and experiential factors influence attitudes towards a predator in Italy

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
A survey of 426 Italian farmers reveals that tolerance toward wolves varies geographically, with northern regions showing less acceptance. Negative intentions were linked to poor knowledge, while use of preventive methods fostered positive beliefs. These findings highlight the need for region‐specific, socially informed wolf management strategies in ...

Effects of off‐highway vehicle activity on Arizona wildlife: a systematic literature review

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
The published literature indicates that off‐highway vehicles (OHVs) predominantly negatively affect native Arizona amphibians, mammals, and reptiles, while effects of OHVs on native Arizona birds are mostly unknown or neutral. Abstract Off‐highway vehicle (OHV) recreation has dramatically increased in Arizona, USA, prompting concerns about potential ...

Northern bobwhites select for native grasses on working grazing land

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Northern bobwhites in eastern Kentucky selected for native warm‐season grasses at multiple spatial scales in an environment dominated by exotic cool‐season grass cattle forage. Our study suggests that incorporating native warm‐season grass cattle forages into existing operations across the southeastern United States may be a viable working‐lands ...

Mapping landowners' willingness to allow recreational deer harvest on their property for managing chronic wasting disease

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We demonstrate an approach for mapping the probability of landowners' willingness to allow wildlife management actions on their property using chronic wasting disease as a case study. Larger property sizes were associated with higher landowner willingness. We mapped predictions across the contiguous United States at the census tract level.

Linking distribution and return‐on‐investment models to optimize woody management for prairie grouse in Nebraska

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We modeled prairie grouse abundance across Nebraska and projected future woody encroachment to estimate population losses. By combining predicted gains from woody treatments with avoided losses and treatment costs, we mapped return on investment to identify areas for woody treatments that maximize benefits to greater prairie‐chickens and sharp‐tailed ...
