The list of studies which estimated the constant, maximal effectiveness (100% reduction in damage) of non-invasive interventions through regular monitoring. The studies are ranged according to the periods of effectiveness estimation.

predator asset intervention period of effectiveness estimation frequency of effectiveness monitoring source
puma (Puma concolor) cattle calving control 3 years annually [36]
grey wolf (Canis lupus) cattle calving control 3 years annually [36]
American black bear (Ursus americanus) cattle calving control 3 years annually [36]

coyote (C. latrans) sheepa electric fence 3 years annually [29]
spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) cattle night corrals 2 years annually [37]
Asiatic black bear (U. thibetanus) crops and beehives electric fence 2 years annually [38]
American black bear (U. americanus) local neighbourhoods physical deterrent (shocking device) 5 months twice (beginning and end) [39]
grey wolf (C. lupus) cattle acoustical and visual deterrents 3 months monthly [40]
Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) sheep electric fence 3 months twice (beginning and end) [41]

aThis case indicates the effect of electric fence on sheep depredation on a farm in Canada, and such effects on three other farms in the same study are shown in figure 2.
