Yet another proposal is to manage the prey, rather than the predator.
Semi-domesticated reindeer are used as substitutes for wild forest reindeer, and managed as prey for predators.
The direct application of this information by land managers may be limited because it is likely not feasible to manage the insect prey of rare bat species.

To successfully manage predator and prey populations, in order to reduce conflicts between stakeholders, it is first of all important to know if there is indeed an impact of vertebrate predators on prey, and then to quantify this impact [4].
"If they don't manage to trap any prey it's a wasted effort," he said.
Hence, small passerines such as the great tit do forage actively and indeed manage to find insect prey under conditions when the light intensity is quite low, although it remains to be assessed to what extent this can help explain the general adaptive significance of marginal eyespots on butterfly wings under natural conditions.
Just as prey individuals manage risk of predation, using behavioral tools of time allocation and vigilance (Brown 1999; Bouskila 2001), predators too should manage their own risks while foraging.
