Orchid Conservation Translocation Efforts in China

2020
The Global Strategy for Plant Conservation is a target-oriented plant conservation strategy. Among the targets was a call for 75% of threatened taxa to be included in ex situ collections and 20% to be available for recovery and reintroduction programs. However, the percentage of threatened taxa worldwide subject to reintroduction is still far less than

Translocation statistics (2002-2010), and the revised Department of Conservation translocation process

Notornis, 2013
In New Zealand, translocation of native species is increasingly being proposed and carried out by community groups as well as the Department of Conservation (DOC). Usually a formal translocation proposal needs to be prepared and approved. Trends in the number and type of proposals approved during 2002-2010 are discussed.

Translocation as a Species Conservation Tool: Status and Strategy

Science, 1989
Surveys of recent (1973 to 1986) intentional releases of native birds and mammals to the wild in Australia, Canada, Hawaii, New Zealand, and the United States were conducted to document current activities, identify factors associated with success, and suggest guidelines for enhancing future work.

The role of translocation in primate conservation

2016
Abstract Humans have translocated thousands of nonhuman primates for conservation, welfare, economic, political, aesthetic, religious, and scientific reasons. Translocations that are intended to promote conservation should increase the probability of the establishment of a self-sustaining population of the species and/or restore critical

Evaluating Oribi Translocations for Conservation: The Importance of Translocation Guidelines

African Journal of Wildlife Research, 2021
At a global scale, anthropogenically-mediated disturbances have resulted in the extirpation of species and declines in both population and range size. Furthermore, land transformation and habitat fragmentation have limited the ability of species to disperse naturally throughout their ranges.

Conservation Translocations

2022
Conservation translocation - the movement of species for conservation benefit - includes reintroducing species into the wild, reinforcing dwindling populations, helping species shift ranges in the face of environmental change, and moving species to enhance ecosystem function.

Conservation translocation – an increasingly viable option for managing threatened plant species

Australian Journal of Botany, 2019
Translocation is the establishment and augmentation of plant populations using ex situ material, and can reduce extinction risk. Historically, translocation has been considered to be high cost and high risk, but today, translocation is increasingly ...

Assessing Disease Risks in Wildlife Translocation Projects: A Comprehensive Review of Disease Incidents

Animals, 2023
Simple Summary There are many factors that can contribute to disease incursions in wildlife translocation projects. Through a systematic review of conservation translocation projects in literature, we found that the source of animals, the pathogen type ...
