Data and R code accompanying article 10.1007/s10750-023-05143-4 in Hydrobiologia.

Analyzes livestock predation incidents across Amboseli group ranches, summarizing claims, animals killed, compensation values, and predator species. Produces summary tables, pie charts, bar charts, density maps, and a formatted Word report comparing current and historical trends.

Ecoscope workflow for Lion Guardians predation analysis in the Amboseli ecosystem. Processes livestock depredation events to generate interactive maps, density grids, heatmaps, pie charts, and time-series dashboards by ranch and species, with herder effectiveness metrics and hotspot visualization.

An open, falsifiable systems hypothesis: predation generalised into the order of everything is the cancer of evolution — and cancer is treatable. Essays, a claim register with E/I/P status, counterevidence and tests, for the biosphere and for AI. Nirodha Collective, CC BY 4.0.
