Wolf depredation on livestock in central Greece
Mammal Research, 2009We studied wolfCanis lupus Linnaeus, 1758 — livestock conflict in central Greece by investigating patterns of 267 verified wolf attacks on livestock for 21 months. Wolves attacked adult goats 43% and cattle 218% more than expected, whereas sheep 41% less than expected from their availability.

From encounter to death: Which stages of predation are considered within livestock depredation research? [PDF]
Biological Conservation: The predation of livestock by carnivores, known as livestock depredation, negatively impacts livestock owners and predator conservation. Although various management interventions have been implemented globally, considerations of predator behaviour and

Limiting Depredation by African Carnivores: the Role of Livestock Husbandry
Conservation Biology, 2003Abstract: Most large carnivore species are in global decline. Conflict with local people, particularly over depredation on livestock, is a major cause of this decline, affecting both nominally protected populations and those outside protected areas. For this reason, techniques that can resolve conflicts between

Andean Bear Livestock Depredation and Community Perceptions in Northern Ecuador
Human Dimensions of Wildlife, 2016ABSTRACTHuman–carnivore conflicts are a major cause of the decline in global carnivore populations. Since 2009, Andean bear (Tremarctos ornatus) depredation incidents in Ecuador’s northern Andes cordillera have reached unprecedented levels: more than 320 livestock deaths.

Evaluation of intercept feeding to reduce livestock depredation by grizzly bears
Ursus, 2017Supplemental and diversionary feeding can reduce conflicts between wildlife and people. However, feeding also can increase species abundance, survival, and reproductive success, which might increase human–wildlife conflicts. In southwestern Alberta, Canada, the provincial government fed road-killed ungulates to grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) each spring ...

Wolf and dog depredation on livestock in central Italy
1998We investigated wolf (Canis lupus)- and dog-livestock conflicts (1992-1995) and costs of compensation (1991-1995) in the Tuscany region of central Italy. The regional indemnity program cost US $345,000 (+/- 93,000 SD) annually. Most depredations (95.2%) involved sheep, with a mean (+/- SD) annual loss of 2,550 +/- 730 sheep, or 0.35% of the regional ...

FlashTags: Evaluating a Novel Deterrent to Reduce Livestock Depredation
Social tolerance of carnivores can be improved by preventing conflicts through nonlethal predator deterrents (e.g., livestock protection dogs [Canis lupus familiaris] and human presence) that have been used for centuries. However, many livestock producers feel the existing preventative methods are inadequate for extensive production systems where ...Bott, Aaron +9 more
