Investigating spatial and temporal factors driving human-wolf interactions in Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, Canada ...
Human-carnivore conflict affects human safety, livelihoods, animal welfare, carnivore population stability, and ecological integrity. Understanding factors associated with conflicts may help to identify management actions that better support the safety of people and wildlife. Over the past few decad...

Human-carnivore conflict affects human safety, livelihoods, animal welfare, carnivore population stability, and ecological integrity.
