Acclimatisation duration, not just release type, drives post‐release settlement in a large‐scale carnivore reintroduction programme

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our study highlights that when acclimatisation periods are too short, the substantial economic and logistical investment in soft‐release protocols may fail to deliver the expected conservation gains. Therefore, defining evidence‐based acclimatisation periods that are long enough to promote settlement, yet compatible with logistical constraints, may ...
