Behavioral interventions to reduce demand for threatened freshwater turtles as pets

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Growing demand for freshwater turtles as pets has fueled illegal trade and accelerated wild population declines, underscoring the need for theory‐based demand‐reduction interventions. We conducted a three‐part randomized controlled trial with active turtle keepers (n = 1800) in China to test conservation‐ and legality‐framed messages by ...

What climate adaptation can learn from evolutionary adaptation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Evolutionary and climate adaptation both describe how complex systems respond to environmental change, either via natural selection or deliberate human choices. Although adaptation in both contexts is expected to produce favorable outcomes, it can also result in maladaptation—ineffective, unintended, or harmful outcomes. As an emerging area of

Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

Using the capabilities approach to achieve people‐centered conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Top‐down interventions carried out by state and nonstate institutions to conserve biodiversity and improve the lives of forest‐proximate people (FPP) in the Global South tend to reflect economistic understandings of human well‐being. More progressive and people‐centered conservation projects are guided by normative visions of how the world ...

Observer coverage and interaction rates determine the choice between design‐based and machine learning bycatch estimators for rare species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Robust estimates of the magnitude of protected species bycatch are essential for effective fisheries management and marine conservation. Existing bycatch estimation methods typically struggle to accurately and precisely estimate the bycatch of rare species as a result of the statistical assumptions necessary to overcome infrequent encounters ...
