• Predation by small mammalian carnivores in rural agro-ecosystems: An undervalued ecosystem service? (2017, background): “…of small carnivores around small-holder farming systems is well-recognised in terms of human-wildlife conflict and ecosystem disservices (Blaum et al., 2009; Gusset et al., 2009; Woodroffe et al., 2005), but is less understood in terms of potential ecosystem services (Roemer et al., 2009).”
• Livestock depredation by wolves and the ranching economy in the Northwestern U.S. (2009, background): “008 The positive influence of compensation programs on livestock producers' tolerance for wolves or other depredating carnivores is debatable (Naughton-Treves et al., 2003; Gusset et al., 2009).”

(2010, background): “…Italy are currently fraud withmany problems and, despite high costs, do not seem to meet their original goal of increasingwolf acceptanceby livestock owners, thereby corroborating studies from elsewhere (Cozza et al. 1996;Naughton-Treves et al. 2003; Zabel andHolm-Müller 2008; Gusset et al. 2009).”
