Wildlife Harvest in Integrated Conservation and Development Projects : Linking Harvest to Household Demand, Agricultural Production, and Environmental Shocks in the Serengeti
Barrett, Christopher B.; Arcese, Peter - 2015
This paper develops a model coupling wildlife population dynamics to endogenous human consumption and poaching behavior in an environment of imperfect labor and product markets and static agricultural production technology subject to environmental shocks. Using a model of the Serengeti...

Gender-Based Harvesting in Wildlife Disease Management
Fenichel, Eli P.; Horan, Richard D. - 2010
Wildlife disease management strategies traditionally focus on lowering aggregate host density below a host-density threshold, reducing infectious contacts (when transmission is density-dependent) to reduce prevalence. The focus on aggregate host density is because controls such as harvests are...

The Price Elasticity of African Elephant Poaching
Blanc, Julian; Đỗ-Quý-Toàn; Dublin, Holly; … - 2020
The objective of this paper is to provide an estimate of the elasticity of elephant poaching with respect to prices. Ivory being a storable commodity subjects its price to Hotelling's no-arbitrage condition, hence allowing identification of the supply curve. The price of gold, one of many...

The price elasticity of African elephant poaching
Đỗ-Quý-Toàn; Levchenko, Andrei A.; Ma, Lin; Blanc, … - 2018
This paper estimates the elasticity of elephant poaching with respect to prices. To identify the supply curve, the authors observe that ivory is a storable commodity and hence subject to Hotelling's no-arbitrage condition. The price of gold, one of many commodities used as stores of value, is...
