SEFS Assistant Professor Alex McInturff co-authors research on human-wildlife conflicts
SEFS Assistant Professor Alex McInturff is a co-author on a new study in Nature Climate Change, highlighting increasing human-wildlife conflict in a warming world. Led by the University of Washington’s Center for Ecosystem Sentinels, the paper found that climate shifts can drive conflicts by altering animal habitats across terrestrial, marine, and freshwater ecosystems, and involved mammals, reptiles, birds, fish and even invertebrates.
The research was highlight by UW News and covered in The Guardian, NPR, NBC News and Inverse.
