As human‐elephant conflict (HEC) increases, a better understanding of the human dimensions of these conflicts and non‐violent mitigation methods are needed to foster long‐term coexistence.

Animals living in heterogeneous landscapes are often faced with making a trade-off between maximizing foraging success and avoiding risk. Using high-resolution GPS-tracking data, this study explored the fine-scale movement patterns and risk sensitivity of

This paper addresses the problem of identifying individual animals in images based on extracting and matching contours, focusing in particular on the trailing edges of humpback whale flukes and the outline of the ears of African savanna elephants.

The world is changing fast. As the tectonic plates of geopolitics and climate change shift, nature is increasingly threatened by humanity.

In aerial wildlife counts, human observers often fail to detect animals. We conducted a multi-species sample-count in Tsavo National Park, Kenya, with traditional rear-seat-observers (RSOs) and an automated ‘oblique-camera-count’ (OCC) imaging system to c

The Elephants and Bees Research project is one of Save the Elephants' innovative programmes designed to explore the natural world for solutions to human-elephant conflict.

Human-elephant conflict (HEC) in the form of crop-raiding, is a major conservation challenge to the long-term survival of elephant populations, simultaneously threatening the livelihoods and personal safety of people living in proximity to elephants.

Natural habitats are rapidly being converted to cultivated croplands, and crop-raiding by wildlife threatens both wildlife conservation and human livelihoods worldwide.

Abstract Natural habitats are rapidly being converted to cultivated croplands, and crop-raiding by wildlife threatens both wildlife conservation and human livelihoods worldwide.

Land outside of gazetted protected areas is increasingly seen as important to the ?future of elephant persistence in Africa.
