Perceptions and Patterns of Human–elephant Conflict in Old and New Settlements in Sri Lanka: Insights for Mitigation and Management (2005, background): “…potential for co-existence between man and elephant rapidly decreases, a trend that is pervasive throughout Asia (Johnsingh and Joshua 1994; Sukumar 1989; Bist 1998; Nyhus et al. 2000); and Africa (Barnes and Alers 1995; Kiiru 1995; Tchamba et al. 1995; Tchamba 1996; O’Connell-Rodwell et al. 2000).”
Taking the Elephants' Perspective: Remembering Elephant Behavior, Cognition and Ecology in Human-Elephant Conflict Mitigation (2018, background): “…unappealing to elephants (Fernando et al., 2008), perimeter trench or ditch around fields (Hoare, 2003; Fernando et al., 2008), pit traps (Nelson et al., 2003), clear crop boundaries (Fernando et al., 2008), tripwire alarm (O’Connell-Rodwell et al., 2000; Asimopoulos, 2016; Wahed et al., 2016).”
Community-based methods to reduce crop loss to elephants: experiments in the communal lands of Zimbabwe (2002, background): “Farmers may not sleep in their fields for a range of reasons, including fear for their lives, concern that their homesteads could be robbed while they were absent and risk of increased exposure to malaria (Hoare 2000; O’Connell-Rodwell et al. 2000).”
Behavioral biology of marine mammal deterrents: A review and prospectus (2013, background): “It is well documented in terrestrial ecosystems and seen when carnivores prey upon livestock and elephant/primate forage in crops (Naughton-Treves, 1998; O’Connell-Rodwell et al., 2000; Treves and Karanth, 2003).”
Animal Preferences and Acceptability of Wildlife Management Actions around Serengeti National Park, Tanzania (2006, unknown): “For example, conflicts between elephants and local people are widespread across the continent, mainly because of crop damage by this species (O’Connell-Rodwell et al. 2000; Osborn and Parker 2003).”
Assessing translocation outcome: Comparing behavioral and physiological aspects of translocated and resident African elephants (Loxodonta africana) (2009, unknown): “For example, deterrents such as electric fences (O’Connell-Rodwell et al., 2000) and the plant Capsicum oleoresin (hot chili pepper) (Osborn, 2002) are useful where elephants have alternative habitats.”
