Human Perceptions Mirror Realities of Carnivore Attack Risk for Livestock: Implications for Mitigating Human-Carnivore Conflict. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Human-carnivore conflict is challenging to quantify because it is shaped by both the realities and people's perceptions of carnivore threats. Whether perceptions align with realities can have implications for conflict mitigation: misalignments can lead ...

Human carnivore conflict in and around Borena Sayint Worehimanu National Park, South Wollo, Amhara Region, Ethiopia: A community-based cross-sectional study design [PDF]

BMC Zoology
Human carnivore conflict is a global issue for conservationists, especially in protected areas such as national parks. Research on human carnivore conflict around the Borena Saynt Worehimenu National Park has been conducted with the aim of assessing the ...

Examining Drivers of Divergence in Recorded and Perceived Human-Carnivore Conflict Hotspots by Integrating Participatory and Ecological Data

Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2021
Human-carnivore conflict is a global challenge with complex and context-specific causes and consequences. While spatial analyses can use ecological principles to predict patterns of conflict, solutions to mitigate conflict must also be locally adaptable,

Predicting human-carnivore conflict at the urban-wildland interface

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020
A major threat to mammalian carnivores is death due to human conflict, including carnivore use of anthropogenic food sources, predation of livestock, or car accidents.

Toward Human-Carnivore Coexistence: Understanding Tolerance for Tigers in Bangladesh [PDF]

, 2016
Fostering local community tolerance for endangered carnivores, such as tigers (Panthera tigris), is a core component of many conservation strategies.

Defining ecological and socially suitable habitat for the reintroduction of an apex predator

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Reintroducing native carnivores risks creating conflict with people and consequently reducing support for coexistence and conservation efforts. Determining the interface between areas of ecological suitability and conflict risk can help enhance success ...

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 ...

Does sex matter? Temporal and spatial patterns of cougar-human conflict in British Columbia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Wildlife-human conflicts occur wherever large carnivores overlap human inhabited areas. Conflict mitigation can be facilitated by understanding long-term dynamics and examining sex-structured conflict patterns.

Harassment‐induced changes in lion space use as a conflict mitigation tool

Conservation Science and Practice, 2021
Human‐wildlife conflict represents a substantial threat to rural livelihoods and species persistence. Directed harassment (i.e., hazing) is one method for mitigating conflict, though gauging its effectiveness is often complicated by a lack of replication,

Multiscale spatially explicit modelling of livestock depredation by reintroduced tiger (Panthera tigris) to predict conflict risk probability

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Understanding the causal factors associated with human/livestock-large carnivore conflict and distribution of conflict risk is key to designing effective preventative and mitigation strategies.
