DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8639
Abstract: Abstract We describe several photo‐documented novel interactions between intraguild predators in southern Florida—the native bobcat (Lynx rufus) and the invasive Burmese python (Python bivittatus). Over several days we documented a bobcat's depredation of an unguarded… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2019.108210
Abstract: Abstract One of the main factors limiting the acceptance of large carnivores is livestock depredation. Reducing damages on livestock requires understanding how depredation varies in space and time. The conservation of the brown bear (Ursus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gecco.2019.e00592
Abstract: Abstract Human-carnivore conflict is a leading cause of large carnivore declines and minimizing these conflicts is vital to maintaining viable carnivore populations. Often, however, conservation agencies and governments do not have a proper understanding of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jembe.2019.151289
Abstract: Abstract The biological consequences of catch-and-release (C&R) angling revolve around interactions between the physiological and behavioural responses of the captured fish and ecological conditions such as the presence of opportunistic predators. Here, we explored the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0030605318001394
Abstract: Abstract Human–wildlife conflict is one of the most pressing issues in conservation. Low-income rural communities are disproportionately affected by negative interactions with large predators, which often leads to retaliatory killings and persecution of the animals.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fevo.2019.00478
Abstract: Carnivore depredation of livestock is a global problem which negatively impacts both agropastoral livelihoods and carnivore population viability. Given the gravity of this issue, research has increasingly focused on applied techniques capable of quantifying the… read more here.
