Managing conflict between large carnivores and livestock
Lily M. van Eeden,Mathew S. Crowther,Chris R. Dickman,David W. Macdonald,William J. Ripple,Euan G. Ritchie,Thomas M. Newsome +6 more
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of global research on conflict mitigation related to large carnivores and humans suggests coexistence strategies be location-specific, incorporate cultural values and environmental conditions, and be designed such that return on financial investment can be evaluated.

TL;DR: Evidence of effectiveness should be a prerequisite to policy making or large-scale funding of any method or, at a minimum, should be measured during implementation, and an appropriate evidence base is needed.
Lethal control of an apex predator has unintended cascading effects on forest mammal assemblages
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that multiple cascade pathways induced by lethal control of an apex predator, the dingo, drive unintended shifts in forest ecosystem structure, suggesting that apex predators’ suppressive effects on herbivores and mesopredators occur simultaneously and should be considered in tandem to appreciate the extent of apex predator’ indirect effects.

Size breeds success: multiple paternity, multivariate selection and male semelparity in a small marsupial, Antechinus stuartii.
TL;DR: Investigation of selection in male brown antechinus, Antechinus stuartii, and paternity success in 119 males is found to be related most strongly to body mass and scrotal size, thus providing support for both hypotheses for the evolution of semelparity.
