Asian Elephant Elephas Maximus Habitat Use and Ranging in Fragmented Rainforest and Plantations in the Anamalai Hills, India (2010, background): “The paucity of research on habitat use and ranging across fragmented landscapes outside protected areas was also highlighted in a recent study on African elephants that also noted the importance of such studies for elephant-human conflict resolution in altered landscapes [29].”
Landscapes of Coexistence for terrestrial carnivores: the ecological consequences of being downgraded from ultimate to penultimate predator by humans (2015, background): “A faster, straighter path may indicate a desire to pass quickly through an area or a habitat in which an animal perceives a greater degree of risk (see Douglas-Hamilton et al. 2005, Graham et al. 2009, Wall et al. 2013 for examples in African elephant).”
Patterns of crop-raiding by elephants, Loxodonta africana, in Laikipia, Kenya, and the management of human–elephant conflict (2010, methodology): “Temporal variation in crop-raiding by elephants is widely recognized (Bell, 1984; Thouless, 1994; Hoare, 1995; Tchamba, 1996; Osborn, 1998, 2003, 2004) and increasingly understood (Chiyo et al., 2005; Graham et al., 2009a).”
No risk, no gain: effects of crop-raiding and genetic diversity on body size in male elephants (2011, background): “For example, although elephants naturally forage both during the day and night, foraging on crops invariably occurs at night (Graham et al. 2009) and particularly during moonless nights (Barnes et al.”
Coping with human disturbance: spatial and temporal tactics of the brown bear (Ursus arctos) (2010, background): “Graham et al. (2009) also reported that African elephants (Loxodonta africana (Blumenbach, 1797)) altered their behavior in human-dominated landscapes in response to perceived risk.”
Characterizing properties and drivers of long distance movements by elephants (Loxodonta africana) in the Gourma, Mali (2013, background): “The significantly greater nighttime movement speeds likely arise from the cooler temperatures and the potential for fewer interactions with people (Graham et al., 2009).”
Moving in the Anthropocene: Global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements (2018, background): “Ultimately, because of the critical role of animal movement for human-wildlife coexistence (29) and disease spread (30), effects of reduced vagility may go beyond ecosystem functioning and directly affect human well-”
Distinguishing technology from biology: a critical review of the use of GPS telemetry data in ecology (2010, background): “…encounters and conflict trade-off between sample size and cost/GPS unit may reduce statistical rigour Whittington et al. (2005); Sawyer et al. (2006); Graham et al. (2009) climate change increased mechanistic insights into climate-movement/habitat/ population links requires combination…”
Spatiotemporal patterns of lion space use in a human-dominated landscape (2015, background): “, 2005; Macdonald, Ball, & Hough, 1980), they are a better estimate of the total area potentially available to lions when measuring avoidance of certain areas than home range methods that exclude areas that are unused such as kernel density estimates (Graham et al., 2009).”
