Identification of human-carnivore conflict hotspots to prioritize mitigation efforts. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2017 AbstractHuman–carnivore conflict is a primary driver of carnivore declines worldwide and resolving these conflicts is a conservation priority. However, resources to mitigate conflicts are limited and should be focused on areas of highest priority.

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 ...

Why Has Human–Carnivore Conflict Not Been Resolved in Namibia? [PDF]
Society & Natural Resources, 2016 Human–wildlife conflict has historically been portrayed as a management problem where solutions lie in technical changes or financial incentives. However, recent research shows many conflicts stem from social, economic, and political drivers.

Implications of taxonomic bias for human–carnivore conflict mitigation [PDF]
Oryx, 2022 AbstractCarnivore population declines are a time-sensitive global challenge in which mitigating decreasing populations requires alignment of applied practice and research priorities. However, large carnivore conservation is hindered by gaps among research, conservation practice and policy formation.
