Wolf depredation hotspots in France: Clustering analyses accounting for livestock availability

open access: yesBiological Conservation, 2020
Areas exhibiting high levels of predations on livestock generate conflicts between humans and large carnivores. Managers generally seek to identify these hotspots, in order to diagnose the causes that lead to hotspot formations and to provide financial or technical support to the involved livestock owners.

Incorporating geographic context into coyote and wolf livestock depredation research

open access: yesCanadian Geographies / Géographies canadiennes, 2022
AbstractApplying research results to new locations and situations can be confounded by differences in the geographic context between the original and the applied study sites. Replication studies and meta‐analyses may be similarly hindered. We investigated how often canid management research reports (e.g., journal articles, conference proceedings ...
