Fortified corrals are one strategy used in Tanzania to protect both livestock and vulnerable carnivore species.

Colorado State University study found that fortified enclosures also benefit nearby livestock keepers by preventing carnivore attacks on nearby livestock.

Losing apex predators can cause ripple effects that disrupt the food web and impact environmental health.

Ruaha National Park is vast, and it's not feasible to enclose it within a chain-link fence.

Fencing the park also would have negative ecological consequences by isolating wildlife.

Having this kind of data from other places would help conservation organizations and wildlife managers find solutions to similar conflicts.
