  abstract = {{W}hile the negative effects of consumptive pressures on marine predators are well established, the effects of increasing non-consumptive activities such as wildlife tourism are still understudied. {A}s such, the long-term effects of the provision of bait on shark behaviour are still unclear. {H}ere, we assessed the effects of provisioning using a {C}ontrol-{I}mpact design on the spatial use and level of residency of the blacktip reef shark{C}archarhinus melanopterusover a 2-year period. {W}e used effect sizes to model the relative changes in residency between provisioning and non-provisioning sites. {S}harks showed a high degree of residency and significant changes in their habitat use which persisted overnight while the activity ceased. {W}e suggest that provisioning activities can affect species with high level of residency such as the blacktip reef shark. {F}urther research is needed to better understand how these behavioural modifications can alter the fitness of this species. {I}t is important to adapt shark provisioning activities to limit the induced changes in habitat use.},
