• Large carnivore impacts are context-dependent (2017, background): “Local conditions may affect composition and characteris ics (gender, size or age) of predator social groups (Van Orsdol et al. 1985).”
• Optimal group size, dispersal decisions and postdispersal relationships in female African lions (2009, unknown): “Population density of lions is largely limited by food availability in the dry season when prey biomass is at an annual low (Schaller 1972; Bertram 1975; Van Orsdol et al. 1985; Packer et al. 2005; Mosser 2008).”
• Carrying capacity of large African predators : Predictions and tests (2007, methodology): “There is no justification for this as predator space use reflects the availability of food resources which vary greatly between sites (van Orsdol et al., 1985).”
