“…For instance, the presence of carnivores usually presents a conflict with human interests, such as competition for resources or livestock predation. Low human pressure in protected areas may benefit carnivores in terms of conservation, habitat quality and human conflict limitation [83]. Coughenour [55] and Marchand et al [84] also noted the positive contribution of protected areas on herbivore populations due to lower hunting pressure.…”

“…Studies of other felids, e.g. snow leopard Panthera uncia (Jackson and Ahlborn 1984) and puma Puma concolor (Pia et al 2013), have indicated that rock formations are important for resting site selection, and provide outlooks to scan the surrounding area. On the other hand, rock formations are also popular for recreational activities, such as climbing and geocaching (Pieber et al 2012), which could lead to new conflicts among stakeholders.…”

“…Por este motivo, las prácticas de conservación deberían enfocarse en la preservación de las características que permiten a los roquedales cumplir funciones importantes para la supervivencia de estas especies que dependen de ellos. Por ejemplo, su rol como conectores entre ambientes favorables para una flora sensible a la temperatura (Speziale and Ezcurra 2015) y como hábitats que ofrecen refugio para muchos individuos y que albergan una gran diversidad específica Pia et al 2013;Rosciano et al 2013;Lambertucci and Ruggiero 2016).…”
