Complexities of conflict: the importance of considering social factors for effectively resolving human–wildlife conflict

Amy Dickman · 6 Jul 2010

Abstract Human–wildlife conflict is one of the most critical threats facing many wildlife species today, and the topic is receiving increasing attention from conservation biologists. Direct wildlife damage is commonly cited as the main driver of conflict, and many tools exist for reducing such damage. However, significant conflict often remains even after damage has been…

Crouching tigers, hidden prey: Sumatran tiger and prey populations in a tropical forest landscape

Timothy G. O’Brien, Margaret F. Kinnaird, Hariyo T. Wibisono · 1 May 2003

Abstract We examine the abundance and distribution of Sumatran tigers ( Panthera tigris sumatrae ) and nine prey species in Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park on Sumatra, Indonesia. Our study is the first to demonstrate that the relative abundance of tigers and their prey, as measured by camera traps, is directly related to independently derived…

An evaluation of camera traps for inventorying large‐ and medium‐sized terrestrial rainforest mammals

Mathias W. Tobler, Samia E. Carrillo‐Percastegui, Renata Leite Pitman et al. · 15 Apr 2008

Abstract Mammal inventories in tropical forests are often difficult to carry out, and many elusive species are missed or only reported from interviews with local people. Camera traps offer a new tool for conducting inventories of large‐ and medium‐sized terrestrial mammals. We evaluated the efficiency of camera traps based on data from two surveys carried…

Predators and people: using human densities to interpret declines of large carnivores

Roșie Woodroffe · 1 May 2000

Abstract The current extinction crisis is caused primarily by human impacts upon wild populations. Large carnivores are especially sensitive to human activity; because their requirements often conflict with those of local people, predators have been actively persecuted in most regions of the world. In this paper, the impact of people upon predators is analysed by…

The use of photographic rates to estimate densities of tigers and other cryptic mammals

Chris Carbone, Sarah Christie, K. Conforti et al. · 1 Feb 2001

Abstract The monitoring and management of species depends on reliable population estimates, and this can be both difficult and very costly for cryptic large vertebrates that live in forested habitats. Recently developed camera trapping techniques have already been shown to be an effective means of making mark‐recapture estimates of individually identifiable animals (e.g. tigers). Camera…
