Human-felid conflict: a review of patterns and priorities worldwide

Chloe Inskip, Alexandra Zimmermann · 1 Jan 2009

Abstract Conflict between people and felids is one of the most urgent wild cat conservation issues worldwide, yet efforts to synthesize knowledge about these conflicts have been few. For management strategies to be effective a thorough understanding of the dynamics of human-felid conflicts is necessary. Here we present the results of a cross-species, systematic review…

Biodiversity offsets in theory and practice

Joseph W. Bull, K. Blake Suttle, Ascelin Gordon et al. · 14 May 2013

Abstract Biodiversity offsets are an increasingly popular yet controversial tool in conservation. Their popularity lies in their potential to meet the objectives of biodiversity conservation and of economic development in tandem; the controversy lies in the need to accept ecological losses in return for uncertain gains. The offsetting approach is being widely adopted, even though…

The use of camera traps for estimating jaguar <i>Panthera onca</i> abundance and density using capture/recapture analysis

Scott C. Silver, Linde E. T. Ostro, Laura K. Marsh et al. · 1 Apr 2004

Across their range jaguars Panthera onca are important conservation icons for several reasons: their important role in ecosystems as top carnivores, their cultural and economic value, and their potential conflicts with livestock. However, jaguars have historically been difficult to monitor. This paper outlines the first application of a systematic camera trapping methodology for abundance estimation…

Simon Mickleburgh, Anthony M. Hutson, Paul A. Racey · 1 Jan 2002

There are 1,001 species of bats, almost a quarter of which are globally threatened. The Chiroptera Specialist Group of IUCN's Species Survival Commission has produced two Action Plans examining conservation issues for all species and detailing recommendations for action to conserve the most threatened species and habitats. These Plans are aimed principally at key decision…

Assessing progress towards global marine protection targets: shortfalls in information and action

Louisa J. Wood, Lucy Fish, Josh Laughren et al. · 1 Jul 2008

Abstract Current global marine protection targets aim to protect 10–30% of marine habitats within the next 3–5 years. However, these targets were adopted without prior assessment of their achievability. Moreover, ability to monitor progress towards such targets has been constrained by a lack of robust data on marine protected areas. Here we present the results…
