...Associative learning through aversive conditioning could also bolster population-level fear, even if certain individuals have never encountered negative anthropogenic stimuli (Barrett et al., 2019)....

...In addition, individual variation in physiology and life history traits can compound with cognition and behavioral traits to hinder the success of certain nonlethal deterrents (Barrett et al., 2019)....

...Moreover, management optimization is itself a selective pressure; management decisions impact population abundance and demography, and deter behaviors that may exacerbate conflict with people (Barrett et al., 2019; Jørgensen et al., 2019; Swan et al., 2017)....

...…deterrents that are successful long-term is a major challenge due to difficulty of deployment, enhanced learning, and selection for behavioral plasticity, with the latter two leading to cognitive arms races and coevolution between humans and wildlife (Barrett et al., 2019; Marzluff & Angell, 2005)....

...Many species are currently in decline (Pimm et al., 2014), while others are thriving in humanaltered habitats by taking advantage of new opportunities associated with anthropogenic disturbance (Lowry, Lill, & Wong, 2013; Sol, Lapiedra, & Gonz alez-Lagos, 2013; Wong & Candolin, 2015)....
