1Assessing key demographic parameters and viability of a wolf population in a highly human-dominated landscapeThis study uses an integrated population model to estimate wolf population size, growth, survival and emigration in a human-dominated Iberian landscape, showing low emigration and identifying adult survival as the key driver of long-term persistence.2026

2Human disturbance thresholds determine the ecological role of an apex predatorThis study shows that in a fragmented, human-dominated landscape, wolves still provide strong top-down regulation that benefits endangered gazelles up to a threshold of human disturbance, beyond which culling and other human impacts weaken apex predator effects and degrade ecosystem functioning.2025

3Patterns and Determinants of Mortality in Grey Wolves (Canis lupus)This systematic review shows that wolf mortality is globally high and predominantly human-caused, especially in Europe, supporting that human-caused and natural mortality are largely additive and highlighting elevated risks for wolves living alongside humans.2025

4Men and wolves: Anthropogenic causes are an important driver of wolf mortality in human-dominated landscapes in ItalyThis study analyses 16 years of wolf carcass data in two Italian regions and shows that vehicle collisions and illegal killings are major mortality causes, with persecution being spatially widespread and poorly predicted by standard conflict correlates, indicating diverse underlying human–wolf conflicts and the need for multidisciplinary approaches to address cryptic killings.2021

5Who Gets to Define “Coexistence”? Wolves, Policy, and the Power of WordsThis essay argues that true coexistence with wolves means proactively preventing conflict and maintaining stable packs through nonlethal systems, and warns that redefining coexistence to include routine lethal control risks undermining both conflict prevention and long-term social legitimacy for wolf conservation.2026https://suzanneashastone.substack.com/p/who-gets-to-define-coexistence-wolves?r=22ufj9

6Negotiating CoexistenceThis book-style work applies conflict and peace studies theory to conservation, giving conservation biologists structured, practical guidance on analysing and negotiating conservation conflicts—including those over wolves—by addressing underlying social tensions and using both the science and art of negotiation to build more peaceful human–nature relations.2026

7Lessons from niche partitioning: rethinking human obligations in wolf coexistenceThis long-form essay argues that true human–wolf coexistence must mirror ecological niche partitioning by requiring humans—not only wolves—to modify their behaviour, reduce spatiotemporal overlap and lethal control, and protect wolf sociality and culture so that their natural ecological and cultural processes can persist.?http://www.self-willed-land.org.uk/articles/niche.htm

8Effects of political identity activation and inaccurate metaperceptions on attitudes toward wolvesThis study shows that activating people’s political identity and their inaccurate beliefs about what “their side” thinks makes attitudes toward wolves more polarized, while simple corrections of these misperceptions can reduce perceived division and support more cooperative coexistence.2026https://conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/cobi.70212

9Spatiotemporal patterns of livestock predation across contrasting farming systems in an expanding grey wolf populationIt examines how making people think about their political identity changes the way they feel about wolves. The authors show that people often hold exaggerated or inaccurate beliefs about what the “other side” thinks of wolves, and these misperceptions harden negative attitudes. Correcting those distorted views and not over‑activating partisan identity can reduce polarization and open more space for constructive discussion about wolf management.2026https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=6514829
