To What Extent Can Life History Strategies Inform Reptile Conservation Planning? [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Conservation planners must effectively target interventions to reduce the extinction risk of species. If we can use a species' life history strategies to predict their responses to interventions, this offers a promising approach to better understand species extinction risks and conservation potential.
