Integrating robotics into wildlife conservation: testing improvements to predator deterrents through movement

|
By Byron Boots, Lance NJ, Mitchell BR, Frank LG
| PeerJ
Discussion We found compelling evidence that creating wildlife deterrents that incorporate movement, particularly movement directed at and in response to animals (i.e., adaptive movement), could provide superior aversive efficacy over devices that are stationary (Fig. 2; Table 3). Movement is important because it can influence all three concepts of deterrent effectiveness (i.e., proximity, unpredictability, and adaptiveness).

Low-stress livestock handling protects cattle in a five-predator habitat

|
By Alberta Environment, Jackson JBC, Brooke BM, Lance NJ
| PeerJ
Conclusion We observe that when properly executed L-SLH protects cattle with fewer riders. Furthermore, it is a method that is quickly taught. Our recommendations are that (1) L-SLH be tested in a randomized controlled experiment against non-L-SLH (i.e., ‘traditional’) livestock handling and/or a true control. This would help to determine whether other forms of human presence deter, attract or have no effect on predator attacks on livestock.
