Our work points to the importance of both Western science and IK data sources in models used for conservation and management decisions. We show how the models that include the IK result in more informed predictions and the value of IK when predicting important areas for species that may be relied upon for conservation and management decisions.

Using incentive payments to promote human–carnivore coexistence
Abstract For many large carnivores, minimizing the financial burden they impose on local people is critical to their conservation. Incentive‐based programs that provide people with financial benefits for taking pro‐conservation actions or achieving conservation goals are a promising tool for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Although the number of

This semi‐systematic review supports the two dominant drivers of birth phenology: the seasonality and predation hypotheses. Even though there is evidence of their importance, the effects of female, offspring and population characteristics remain marginally accounted for. Asian and South and Central American species are currently understudied.
