“…This may lead to carnivore population declines and loss of community support for conservation (Treves & Karanth, 2003). However, a congruence of carnivore resilience (Chapron et al, 2014;Mech, 2017), conservation policy (Swenson, Linnell, Swenson, & Andersen, 2015;Treves & Karanth, 2003), and local acceptance of carnivores (Carter & Linnell, 2016) has enabled carnivores to persist in "shared spaces" in many countries (Lindenmayer et al, 2008). While Europe and North America are witnessing recolonization of large carnivores in human-modified landscapes following their mass persecution (Chapron et al, 2014;Smith, Nielsen, & Hellgren, 2016), countries like Australia (Newsome et al, 2014), Ethiopia (Yirga et al, 2017), Brazil (Vynne et al, 2011), Iran (Hosseini-Zavarei, Farhadinia, Beheshti-Zavareh, & Abdoli, 2013), India (Athreya, Odden, Linnell, Krishnaswamy, & Karanth, 2013), Kenya (Van Cleave et al, 2018), and Israel (Barocas, Hefner, Ucko, Merkle, & Geffen, 2018) have also recorded large carnivore presence in mix-use landscapes.…”
