Disease Risk and Conservation Implications of Orangutan Translocations [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021 Critically Endangered orangutans are translocated in several situations: reintroduced into historic range where no wild populations exist, released to reinforce existing wild populations, and wild-to-wild translocated to remove individuals from potentially risky situations.

Using Decision Analysis to Determine the Feasibility of a Conservation Translocation
Decision Analytics, 2023 Conservation translocations, intentional movements of species to protect against extinction, have become widespread in recent decades and are projected to increase further as biodiversity loss continues worldwide.

Physiology in conservation translocations [PDF]
Conservation Physiology, 2014 Conservation translocations aim to restore species to their indigenous ranges, protect populations from threats and/or reinstate ecosystem functions. They are particularly important for the conservation and management of rare and threatened species. Despite tremendous efforts and advancement in recent years, animal conservation translocations generally

Social feasibility assessments in conservation translocations
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2023 Improving the effectiveness of conservation translocations could contribute to reversing global biodiversity loss. Although evaluations of ecological factors affecting translocation outcomes are commonplace, consideration of human social factors remains rare, hindering improvements to this conservation practice.

Novel Conditions in Conservation Translocations: A Conservative-Extrapolative Strategic Framework [PDF]
Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2021 In response to anthropogenic threats, conservation translocations are increasingly used to combat species' population and range declines. However, moving animals outside of their current distribution can mean introducing them to novel conditions, even in the case of reintroductions to formerly inhabited areas due to ecosystem changes following ...

, 2021 Conservation and natural resource management are frequently hampered by poor understanding of how species distributions have changed over time. Species Distribution Models (SDMs) correlate known occurrences with environmental variables to predict a ...

The role of social and political factors in the success of rewilding projects
Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2023 The ecological aspects behind the success and failure of rewilding projects have been looked at in literature and case studies, but rarely have sociopolitical factors been included in these classifications.

Public perceptions of an avian reintroduction aiming to connect people with nature
People and Nature, 2023 Species reintroductions are an increasingly popular conservation tool, typically aiming to achieve direct conservation benefits. Socio‐cultural drivers also exist but have, to date, received very little attention in research and policy.

Suction samplers are a valuable tool to sample arthropod assemblages for conservation translocation
, 2020 An important component of recent nature conservation is the ecological restoration of semi‐natural grasslands. The aim of such projects is usually the restoration of typical plant communities; translocation of animals, by contrast, plays only a minor ...
