Exploring the potential and challenges of community-based anti-poaching

Elephant behaviour and conservation: social relationships, the effects of poaching, and genetic tools for management.

Genetic tools are increasingly valuable for understanding the behaviour, evolution, and conservation of social species. In African elephants, for instance, genetic data provide basic information on the population genetic causes and consequences of social behaviour, and how human activities alter elephants' social and genetic structures. As such, African elephants provide a useful case study to ...

Vertical Transmission of Social Roles Drives Resilience to Poaching in Elephant Networks

Network resilience to perturbation is fundamental to functionality in systems ranging from synthetic communication networks to evolved social organization [1]. While theoretical work offers insight into causes of network robustness, examination of natural networks can identify evolved mechanisms of resilience and how they are related to the selective pressures driving structure. Female African ...
