- Estimating lion population variables: prey and disease effects in Kruger National Park, South Africa. (2010, background): “The numbers and density of the lion (Panthera leo Linnaeus, 1758) vary considerably across Africa (Bauer and van der Merwe 2004), and may decline as their prey decrease as a result of competition with livestock (Ogutu and Dublin 2002; Ogutu et al. 2005), retribution killing of stock-raiding lions (W”
- Spatial, temporal, and physical characteristics of livestock depredations by large carnivores along a Kenyan reserve border (2006, background): “Because densities of some large predators are likely lower outside than inside protected areas (Mills and Hofer, 1998; Caro, 1999; Ogutu et al., 2005), bomas further from the Reserve may be less vulnerable to attack.”
- Substrate and species constraints on the use of track incidences to estimate African large carnivore abundance (2010, background): “For instance, African lions Panthera leo declined dramatically during the late 20th century (Bauer & van der Merwe, 2004), and today face many threats, most notably from farmers who persecute them for killing livestock (Ogutu et al., 2005; Woodroofe & Frank, 2005).”
- Occupancy patterns and niche partitioning within a diverse carnivore community exposed to anthropogenic pressures (2013, background): “, in press) which is comparable to or greater than the density of lions in many national parks (Chardonnet, 2002; Creel and Creel, 1997; Hanby and Bygott, 1995; Mills and Biggs, 1993; Ogutu et al., 2005; Packer et al., 2011; Spong, 2002).”
- Savanna herbivore dynamics in a livestock-dominated landscape. II: Ecological, conservation, and management implications of predator restoration (2007, background): “Non-lethal effects of humans and livestock on predators and wild herbivores, for example, via disturbance and displacement ( Ogutu et al., 2005 ), are also potentially important, but little-understood.”
