Letícia's research focuses on the ecology and conservation of large mammals. She investigates how landscape changes and human-wildlife conflicts are reducing the habitat of jaguars in Brazil and how climate change and predictions of land use changes will affect these animals in the future. She integrates population dynamics features into an interdisciplinary view of the main drivers threatening this species and to develop a theoretical interface to be considered in a long-term conservation plan. more: Letícia BENAVALLI.
