Predator Controls Article

In 2018 I received a small grant from Wild Animal Initiative to carry out some research into predator controls and how they affect animal welfare. Wild Animal Initiative subsequently funded the publication of an article I wrote on this topic and I am pleased to announce that this has now been published in the journal Animals and it is available here. The title of the article is “Animal Welfare in Predator Control: Lessons from Land and Sea. How the Management of Terrestrial and Marine Mammals Impacts Wild Animal Welfare in Human–Wildlife Conflict Scenarios in Europe.” I am very grateful to WAI for their financial support and to Mark Simmonds for his helpful comments and suggestions during the writing of the article.
