Modelling Eurasian lynx populations in Western Europe: What prospects for the next 50 years? Open
Persistence of populations may be uncertain for large carnivore species, especially for those established in human-dominated landscapes. Here, we studied the Eurasian lynx in Western Europe established in the Upper Rhine meta-population (i…

Standardization of a High‐Quality Methodological Framework for Long‐Term Genetic Monitoring of the French Wolf Population Open
Since the gray wolf was eradicated from large parts of Europe, this species has been recolonizing much of its former distribution, particularly since the past 30 years. Wolves benefit from European legal protection through the Habitats Dir…

Bringing circuit theory into spatial occupancy models to assess landscape connectivity Open
Occupancy models were originally developed to better understand species distribution while accounting for imperfect detection. Because species distribution is not only shaped by habitat quality but also by the ability of individuals to rea…

Evaluating the effects of wolf culling on livestock predation when considering wolf population dynamics in an individual‐based model Open
The efficiency of the management of predations on livestock by gray wolves ( Canis lupus ) through culling is under debate. Evaluating wolf culling efficiency requires to simultaneously analyze the effects of culling on the wolf population…

Spatio-temporal dynamics of attacks around deaths of wolves: A statistical assessment of lethal control efficiency in France Open
The lethal control of large carnivores is criticized regarding its efficiency to prevent hotspots of attacks on livestock. Previous studies, mainly focused on North America, provided mixed results. We evaluated the effects of wolf lethal r…

Transboundary Monitoring of the Wolf Alpine Population over 21 Years and Seven Countries Open
Wolves have large spatial requirements and their expansion in Europe is occurring over national boundaries, hence the need to develop monitoring programs at the population level. Wolves in the Alps are defined as a functional population an…

Bringing circuit theory into spatial occupancy models to assess landscape connectivity Open
Connectivity shapes species distribution across fragmented landscapes. Assessing landscape resistance to dispersal is challenging because dispersal events are rare and difficult to detect especially for elusive species. To address these is…

Ecological correlates of large carnivore depredation on sheep in Europe Open
Sharing space with large carnivores on a human-dominated continent like Europe results in multiple conflictful interactions with human interests, of which depredation on livestock is the most widespread. We conducted an analysis of the imp…
