Wildlife Management in the Presence of Predation and Damage Costs

Journal of Forest Economics, 2022
In this paper a simple age-structured model is constructed to analyze how a wildlife population creating hunting value, but also damage costs, is influenced by predation. The model may exemplify a moose population causing forest browsing damage and exposed for predation by wolf or other big carnivores within a Scandinavian institutional setting ...

Use of Frightening Devices in Wildlife Damage Management

Integrated Pest Management Reviews, 2002
Wildlife is often responsible for causing extensive damage to personal property, human health and safety concerns, and other nuisance problems because of their feeding, roosting, breeding, and loafing habits. Frightening devices are tools used in integrated wildlife damage management to reduce the impacts of animals, but the effectiveness of such ...

APPLICATION OF DISTRIBUTED PARAMETER CONTROL MODEL IN WILDLIFE DAMAGE MANAGEMENT

Mathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, 1992
A bioeconomic model for optimal control of wildlife damage by migratory small mammal populations is developed under the framework of a nonlinear distributed parameter control problem. The model first simulates the spatio-temporal dynamics of dispersal population by parabolic diffusive Volterra-Lotka partial differential equation and then optimizes a ...

WILDLIFE DAMAGE MANAGERS AND EUTHANASIA

1995
Wildlife damage managers regularly are faced with decisions that include whether and how animals will be killed. Euthanasia refers to death without pain or distress, i.e., a humane death. The American Veterinary Medical Association has developed guidelines for euthanasia (Andrews et al. 1993).

Managing boldness of wildlife: an ethological approach to reducing crop damage

Population Ecology, 2016
AbstractWildlife can cause serious crop damages, and factorial analyses focusing ecological aspects have been conducted to resolve this problem. However, ethological perspectives should also be considered. Individuals often show consistent biases in behaviour—so‐called personality; e.g., boldness may cause to intrude into a farmland.
