• Islands and introduced herbivores: conservation action as ecosystem experimentation (2002, background): “Examples include exploring (i) habitat fragments with and without predators; (ii) the recovery and/or decline of an over-exploited species; and (iii) reintroductions (Breitenmoser & Haller 1993; Estes & Duggins 1995; Crooks & Soulé 1999; Stahl et al. 2001).”
• Assessing the suitability of central European landscapes for the reintroduction of Eurasian lynx (2002, methodology): “Lynx are also present in the French part of the Jura Mountains (Stahl et al. 2001), but it is currently not known if the sightings or findings of lynx prey remains correspond to resident lynx or to floaters.”
• Human–carnivore conflict: ecological and economical sustainability of predation on livestock by snow leopard and other carnivores in the Himalaya (2014, background): “Finally, the increased incidence of predation on livestock may be related to a decrease in the numbers of natural prey caused by the increasing density of carnivore (Sagor et al. 1997; Stahl et al. 2001; Stoddart et al. 2001).”
• Spatial, temporal, and physical characteristics of livestock depredations by large carnivores along a Kenyan reserve border (2006, background): “…have been unable to associate predator density with livestock depredation rates (Connor et al., 1998; Graham et al., 2005), others have clearly documented increases in livestock depredation rates with increases in carnivore density (Sagor et al., 1997; Stahl et al., 2001; Stoddart et al., 2001).”
• Diet of Eurasian lynx, Lynx lynx, in the boreal forest of southeastern Norway: the relative importance of livestock and hares at low roe deer density (2006, background): “In Western Europe, lynx also prey on domestic sheep (Stahl et al. 2001; Odden et al. 2002; Herfindal et al. 2005a,b).”
• Factors affecting lynx predation on sheep in the French Jura (2002, methodology): “On the other hand, the reappearance of attacks in the same sites after years with no losses suggested a ‘site’ effect (Stahl et al. 2001a,b).”
• Natal dispersal of Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in Switzerland (2005, background): “Prey base was not a limiting factor during the study time (Stahl et al., 2001; Molinari-Jobin, Molinari et al., 2002).”
• Human-wildlife conflict in the Kingdom of Bhutan: Patterns of livestock predation by large mammalian carnivores (2008, background): “Abundance of domestic stock has shown to be correlated to ‘predation hotspots’ in Bhutan (Wang and Macdonald, 2006) and elsewhere (Yom-Tov et al., 1995; Stahl et al., 2001; Bagchi and Mishra, 2006; Michalski et al., 2006).”
• Food Habits and Livestock Depredation of Sympatric Jaguars and Pumas in the Iguaçu National Park Area, South Brazil (2008, background): “Predation on livestock may be substantial when availability or diversity of large wild ungulates is low, which might provoke a shift toward the use of domestic rather than wild ungulates (Meriggi & Lovari 1996, Stahl et al. 2001).”
