Associate Professor and Founder of the Carnivore Coexistence Lab in 2007, Adrian Treves earned his PhD at Harvard University in 1997
and is now an associate professor of Environmental Studies at the
University of Wisconsin–Madison. His research focuses on agro-ecosystems
where crop and livestock production overlap carnivore habitat. He and
his students work to understand and manage the balance between human
needs and carnivore conservation. With his students, he investigates
conservation and ecology of large carnivores, as well as the attitudes
and behaviors of the people who live alongside those carnivores.
Research at the Carnivore Coexistence Lab follows two main streams of inquiry within the fields of Human Dimensions of Wildlife and Conservation Biology: (1) Spatial patterns of conflicts with carnivores and human responses to these conflicts, (2) Attitudes toward carnivore management and policy.
