TL;DR: The analysis suggests that while ecological, economic, and social processes are often directly relevant to PAs at finer scales, at broader scales, the dominant processes that shape and alter PA resilience are primarily social and economic.

TL;DR: It is suggested that certain extralimital species (typically larger and charismatic species) contribute to tourist satisfaction, while particularly the smaller extralIMital species add little to the game viewing experience, but add to the costs and risks of the PPAs.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that wildlife disease is a social-ecological problem that must be approached from an interdisciplinary perspective, and has the potential to lead to changes in the identity of protected areas, possibly transforming them; and interacts with conservation both directly (via impacts on wild animals, livestock, and people) and indirectly (via the public, conservation management, and veterinary responses).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine previous studies on rates of deactivation of crop fields by smallholders in the communal areas of South Africa, supported by repeat photo images and case study material.
