Simple SummaryThe study was carried out in La Ribagorza County, Spain. We conducted 30 surveys on extensive sheep,Ovis aries, and goat,Capra hircus, farmers to discover their attitudes, perceptions, and knowledge of the current situation of this type of extensive farming and the conflicts that may arise between their activity and the presence of large carnivores such as the brown bear,Ursus arctos, or the grey wolf,Canis lupus. The coexistence of extensive livestock farming with the presence of large carnivores is one of the main challenges facing this sector.AbstractThe studied farms are small family businesses, and so, in more than half of the cases, their continuity is not guaranteed. Livestock management is typical of a mountain system, in which the animals graze throughout the year in cultivated fields, sown meadows, forests near the farms, and mountain pastures during the three summer months. The herds always have the constant surveillance of a shepherd. Farmers consider the current infrastructure present in mountain grasslands insufficient to facilitate the management and care of their herd. Their activity conflicts with various species of wildlife, such as the wild boar,Sus scrofa, roe deer,Capreolus capreolus, or griffon vulture,Gyps fulvus, and large carnivores such as the brown bear,Ursus arctos, or the grey wolfCanis lupus, despite all of them taking preventive measures to defend their herds from predators. The most widely used prevention measures are the presence of mastiff dogs,Canis lupus familiaris, next to the herds and the use of electric fencing to lock up livestock at night. Farmers reject the presence of bears and wolves in their area, considering it a real threat to the continuity of their economic activity, which presents a high degree of vulnerability.
