Using Species Distribution Models to Predict Potential Landscape Restoration Effects on Puma Conservation.

A mosaic of intact native and human-modified vegetation use can provide important habitat for top predators such as the puma (Puma concolor), avoiding negative effects on other species and ecological processes due to cascade trophic interactions. This study investigates the effects of restoration sc...
