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 ...

Mitigating the human link in emerging reptile fungal pathogen transmission

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Handling wild reptiles is common among amateur herpetology enthusiasts, professional researchers, social media influencers, and photographers. However, the potential for these interactions to spread diseases that threaten wild reptiles remains underappreciated.

A review of country ambition in targeting important areas for biodiversity under the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Targets 1 and 3 of the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KMGBF) require actions to focus on areas of importance for biodiversity—a prerequisite for reversing biodiversity loss and halting human‐induced extinctions as set out in the Mission and Goals of the KMGBF.

Detection of trade in products derived from threatened species using machine learning and a smartphone application

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Illegal and unsustainable wildlife trade remains a major conservation challenge and is increasingly shifting to online marketplaces where monitoring is difficult. To address this gap, we used real‐world images from online platforms, enforcement seizures, and market inspections to develop a deep‐learning object detection framework to identify ...

Study on population and distribution of two common sea turtles, green turtle and hawskbil turtle in Indonesia

Study on population and distribution of two common sea turtles, green turtle and hawskbil turtle in Indonesia
The green turtle and hawksbill turtle are the most common of six sea turtle species existing in Indonesian waters. These two populations seem to be declined after observation of the decreases of nested sea turtles from year to year in some place where the turtles had been nesting frequently.

To release or not to release? Understanding sawfish release behavior in a global south complex fishery

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This demonstrates the gap between existing top‐down laws and strategies (Current Approach) and the barriers fishers face while proposing an alternative pathway (Proposed Approach) based on collaboration, capacity building, and addressing socio‐economic factors.
