• Carrying capacity of large African predators : Predictions and tests (2007, unknown): “Lion were reintroduced to Pilanesberg National Park in 1993 (van Dyk and Slotow, 2003) and exceeded 50 individuals in 1998 (Tampling and du Toit, 2005).”
• Prey preferences and dietary overlap amongst Africa's large predators (2008, background): “…52 Mills & Biggs (1993) Madikwe Game Reserve 1996 69 Hayward et al. (2006c) 1997 76 Hayward et al.

• Do fences constrain predator movements on an evolutionary scale? Home range, food intake and movement patterns of large predators reintroduced to Addo Elephant National Park, South Africa (2009, background): “Almost all that is known, apart from the isolation effects, is that fences are used by some predators to assist increase hunting success (Hunter 1998; van Dyk and Slotow 2003).”
• Efforts going to the dogs? Evaluating attempts to re-introduce endangered wild dogs in South Africa (2007, background): “In this regard, behavioural monitoring becomes essential both pre- and post-release, for example to identify and remove individuals that interfere with the socialization process (Van Dyk & Slotow 2003; Gusset, Slotow & Somers 2006).”
• Large carnivore impacts are context-dependent (2017, background): “Landscape modification and the management of larger predators in fenced reserves for example can also have conservation benefits for mesopredators (Van Dyk and Slotow 2003).”
