- W2247455841 abstract "All over the world, human-wildlife conflict is an ever increasing problem for many species of wildlife and especially true for large carnivores. They are often killed when threatening humans and their domesticated animals, and since carnivores trophic positions confine them to living at low population densities, their future existence is critically threatened. Research that advances our understanding of predator-livestock interactions is crucial to conflict mitigation and large carnivore conservation. This study was conducted with the aim of (1) determining the large carnivores involved in livestock predation (2) assessing livestock predation intensity and temporal occurrence in the pastoral ranches adjacent to Maasai Mara National reserve, (3) assessing factors that influence livestock predation specifically wild prey density, livestock density, carnivore density and environment. The study took place in Maasai Mara National Reserve and the adjacent group ranches for duration of eight months. Data was collected via a combination of various methods. Line transects sampling was done to estimate wild prey density and distribution, quadrat sampling to estimate vegetation cover, questionnaires and interviews to estimate livestock/carnivore density in the group ranches, and secondary data retrieved from the Kenya Wildlife Service, human wildlife conflict occurrence book in Narok station. Results showed that most livestock were attacked and killed during the rainy season (61.2%). Lions (Panthera leo), Leopards {Panthem pardus), Spotted hyenas {Crocuta crocuta) and wild dogs {Lycaon pictus) were responsible for 42.9%, 40.8%, 12.2% and 4.1% of the attacks respectively. Leopards {Panthem pardus) were identified as the most destructive, having attacked and killed 66% of all livestock during this period. ANOVA results indicated a significant difference (F [3,308] =66.201, p<0.001), in grass height between the Reserve and the group" @default.
