Telemetry is an increasingly common tool for studying the ecology of wild fish, with great
potential to provide valuable information for management and conservation. For researchers …

There is a general assumption that animal species that face anthropogenic disturbance
through tourism suffer some negative impacts as a result. We carried out a meta-analysis of …

Human exploitation of wild‐living animals has been suggested to create a 'landscape of
fear'. A consequence could be that individuals surviving intensive harvesting, either as a …

Considerable time and money are expended in the pursuit of catching fish with hooks (eg,
handlining, angling, longlining, trolling, drumlining) across the recreational, commercial and …

A key goal of protected areas is the conservation of biodiversity. Increasing visitation,
however, can compromise ecological integrity. A fundamental conundrum is that if parks are …

Whether intensive harvesting alters the behavioral repertoire of exploited fishes is currently
unknown, but plausible. We extend a fish life-history model to account for boldness as a …

Harvesting of wild-living animals is often intensive and may selectively target heritable
behavioral traits. We studied the exploitation dynamics and the vulnerability consequences …

In passively operated fishing gear, boldness‐related behaviors should fundamentally affect
the vulnerability of individual fish and thus be under fisheries selection. To test this …

Abstract Ecotourism generates $7.6 trillion annually and supports 292 million jobs around
the world, and because of these benefits, it has been emphasized as a conservation …

Recreational spearfishing is a fishing method that occurs globally, yet receives considerably
less attention in the scientific literature relative to other recreational fishing methods, such as …
