Contact between wild animals and farmed livestock may result in disease transmission with huge financial, welfare and ethical consequences. Conflicts between people and wildlife can also arise when species such as wild boar (Sus scrofa) consume crops...

The importance of fine-scale predictors of wild boar presence in an isolated population (2022)
Journal Article

1. Predicting the likelihood of wildlife presence at potential wildlife-livestock interfaces is challenging. These interfaces are usually relatively small geographical areas where landscapes show large variation over small distances. Models of wildli...

Towards a unified generic framework to define and observe contacts between livestock and wildlife: a systematic review (2020)
Journal Article
Bacigalupo, S. A., Dixon, L. K., Gubbins, S., Kucharski, A. J., & Drewe, J. A. (2020). Towards a unified generic framework to define and observe contacts between livestock and wildlife: a systematic review. PeerJ, 8, e10221. https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.10221

Wild animals are the source of many pathogens of livestock and humans. Concerns about the potential transmission of economically important and zoonotic diseases from wildlife have led to increased surveillance at the livestock-wildlife interface. Kno...
