However, unsustainable hunting is one of the most urgent threats to wildlife and ecosystems worldwide and has serious implications for people whose subsistence and income are tied to wild meat. Furthermore, the demand for wild meat in urban areas contributes to the unsustainable hunting of wildlife in rural areas and remains a significant challenge to biodiversity conservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/presspay.ng\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Uni-Kent.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10500\" width=\"299\" height=\"299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/presspay.ng\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Uni-Kent.png 225w, https:\/\/presspay.ng\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Uni-Kent-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 299px) 100vw, 299px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The candidate will join an applied conservation research group with expertise on the hunting, consumption, and trade in wildlife (hereafter referred to collectively as \u2018wildlife use\u2019), and on pangolins. Focusing on sub-Saharan Africa (particularly West and Central Africa), the candidate will conduct advanced statistical methods to identify the factors that shape wildlife use. The candidate will either focus on all species used for wild meat or on African pangolins \u2013 please note this project is about local use, not international trafficking.
