John Durrus Linnell

John Durrus Linnell is a Professor at the Department of Forestry and Environmental Sciences, Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences, and a Senior Researcher at NINA Lillehammer (Norwegian Institute for Nature Research). His work focuses on wildlife management, particularly large carnivores, and their interactions with human-dominated landscapes across Europe.

His research explores

• human-wildlife conflict mitigation
• conservation strategies in multi-use landscapes
• policy frameworks for protected species
• and stakeholder engagement in environmental management.

The article trends indicate his expertise in European carnivore conservation, livestock protection mechanisms, and sustainable land-use planning. He frequently collaborates with institutions like INN, NINA, and international partners in Spain, Germany, and Italy.

Linnell leads projects addressing environmental education (e.g., 5-6-year-olds' biodiversity knowledge) and conflict-reducing interventions in carnivore regions. His work bridges ecological research with policy implementation.
