The dynamics of wild and alternative meat consumption across Gabon, Central Africa
Long‐term overharvesting of wild animals for their meat threatens wildlife and the people dependent on wild animal meat for their diets and incomes. Interventions to reduce wild meat consumption must be built upon a complete understanding of the roles of wild meat and its alternatives within food systems. Here, we conduct a national‐scale analysis of how urbanization, market access and price impact the use of wild and alternative meat and fish in…
The True Legacy of Stono
Most of the research surrounding South Carolina’s Stono Slave Rebellion revolves around the planning and execution of the rebellion, the motivation of the slaves that chose to participate in the rebellion, and the immediate response of white slaveowners to the rebellion. Conversely, my research focuses on the long-term impact of the rebellion on the institution of slavery in South Carolina. Over the course of my research, I have explored the impa…
Mapping the availability of bushmeat for consumption in Central African cities
The trade of bushmeat from rural areas to supply burgeoning cities is a major conservation and livelihood concern. Using a whole-city sampling strategy we mapped the distribution and numbers of meat outlets in the Kinshasa–Brazzaville metropolitan area, two neighboring capital cities in Central Africa. We show that both cities differ in the number and density of meat outlets, with more in Brazzaville per area sampled and inhabitants. The number o…
Impacts of Protected Areas on Local Livelihoods in Cambodia
Impact evaluation methods (mixed effects models and matching) were used to investigate the effect of protected areas (PAs) on poverty and livelihoods in Cambodia, comparing households inside PAs with bordering villages and controls. There was no evidence that PAs exacerbated local poverty or reduce agricultural harvests in comparison with controls. Households bordering the PAs were significantly better off due to greater access to markets and ser…

Why Do Mbuti Hunters Use Nets? Ungulate Hunting Efficiency of Archers and Net-Hunters in the Ituri Rain Forest
Impact of roadside agriculture on subsistence hunting in the Ituri forest of northeastern Zaire
Records of 428 hunter captures were used to assess if large areas of secondary forest surrounding roadside horticulturalists' settlements were successfully exploited for wild game, a primary source of protein in the diet of the local human population. Data show that such forest within the Ituri region of Zaire is frequently and successfully exploited for wild game by subsistence hunters. Fauna exploited and capture weights are comparable from hun…
