Nocturnal refuge As the human population grows, there are fewer places for animals to live out their lives independently of our influence. Given mostly diurnal tendencies, one domain that remains less affected by humans is night. Gaynor et al. found across globe and mammalian species—from deer coyotes from tigers wild boar—animals becoming more nocturnal (see Perspective Benítez-López). Human activities all kinds, including nonlethal pastimes such as hiking, seem drive make use hours when we...
Many wildlife species face imminent extinction because of human impacts, and therefore, a prevailing belief is that some species, particularly large carnivores ungulates, cannot coexist with people at fine spatial scales (i.e., regularly use the exact same point locations). This provides rationale for various conservation programs, such as resettling communities outside protected areas. However, quantitative information on capacity mechanisms to humans scarce. Such vital, world becoming...
Data that influence policy and major investment decisions risk entrenching social political inequities.

Leopard population declines largely occur in areas where leopards and people frequently interact. Research on how respond to human presence competitors, like other predators, can provide important insights leopard ecology conservation human-dominated regions; however, such research is lacking. Here we used data from field cameras 2010 2011 examine presence, prey, tigers influence spatiotemporal activity patterns around Nepal's Chitwan National Park, part of a global biodiversity hotspot. We...
Sustaining wildlife populations, which provide both ecosystem services and disservices, represents a worldwide conservation challenge. The Ostrom's social-ecological systems frameworks have been adopted across natural social sciences to characterize benefits from nature. Despite their generalizability, individually they do not include explicit tools for addressing the sustainable management of many populations. For instance, framework does specifically address competing perspectives on...
Abstract Conserving threatened carnivore species increasingly depends on the capacity of local people to cohabit with those species. To examine such we developed a novel psychological framework for conservation in regions world where there are human–carnivore conflicts, and used Endangered tiger Panthera tigris explore utility this framework. Specifically, tested three hypotheses Chitwan National Park, Nepal, increasing human–tiger conflicts potentially jeopardize long-term coexistence. We...
Fostering local community tolerance for endangered carnivores, such as tigers (Panthera tigris), is a core component of many conservation strategies. Identification antecedents will facilitate the development effective tolerance-building action and secure support for, involvement in, initiatives. We use stated preference approach measuring tolerance, based on 'Wildlife Stakeholder Acceptance Capacity' concept, to explore villagers' levels in Bangladesh Sundarbans, an area where, at time...
Large carnivores are threatened worldwide by a variety of human-driven factors, including persecution, which regularly results when they come into conflict with people.Although human activities almost universally viewed as negatively affecting carnivore conservation, we contend that conservation outcomes for improved social and economic forces reduce the risks associated these species facilitate acquisition values favorable to their conservation.We make three specific propositions: (1)...
Effective conservation planning of globally endangered tigers (Panthera tigris) requires a good understanding their population dynamics. Territoriality, an essential characteristic many wildlife species, plays crucial role in the dynamics tigers. However, previous models tiger have not adequately incorporated territoriality. We therefore developed and implemented spatially explicit agent-based model shaped by different territorial behaviors males females. To allow for predictions to new...
Artificial nightlight is increasingly recognized as an important environmental disturbance that influences the habitats and fitness of numerous species. However, its effects on wide‐ranging vertebrates their interactions remain unclear. Light pollution has potential to amplify land‐use change, such, answering question how this sensory stimulant affects behavior habitat use species valued for ecological roles economic impacts critical conservation planning. Here, we combined satellite‐derived...
Roads are encroaching on tiger range in Asia, increasing extinction risk and necessitating bold new planning strategies.
Abstract The extent of artificial night light and anthropogenic noise (i.e., “light” “noise”) impacts is global has the capacity to threaten species across diverse ecosystems. Existing research involving or primarily focused on alone single species; however, these stimuli often co‐occur little known about how co‐exposure influences wildlife if why may vary in their responses. Here, we had three aims: (1) investigate species‐specific responses light, noise, interaction between two using a...
