My results indicate that 79% of respondents with high rate of livestock losses to lions have high propensity to kill lions following depredation incidence. Interestingly, 80% of young individuals (18-40 years) want to see lions in their ecosystems #DICECON20#Coexstence
5/6 Media coverage was globally distributed (73 countries across all continents). ๐๐ฏmost covered. Orchids and saiga least. Sentiment towards charismatic megafauna was most positive in non-range countries BUT most negative also in non-range countries. #DICECON20
