Abstract:

Reintroduction is a potentially powerful tool available to conservationists to cope with species population declines. Nonetheless, it is poorly understood and past reviews tend to indicate poor results. Reintroduction, under the sensu stricto IUCN definition, must have a primary objective of conservation; however species can be released to sites in their indigenous range (reintroduction sensu lato) to meet other objectives. The outcomes of these reintroductions s.l need to be assessed to determine how effectively they achieve their varied objectives. A Web of Science review revealed that only

Abstract:

Black stilts (Himantopus novaezelandiae) are an endangered wader endemic to New Zealand. The black stilt population is critically low and managers are trying to return the species to a sustainable level by captive-rearing young stilts from eggs. A new and experimental reintroduction programme began in 1993. Over two years, 57 young birds were released to the wild within their natural range in the Mackenzie Basin. The area they were initially released into contains a diversity of feeding habitats and mammalian predators are excluded. Newly released stilts remain around the release area for the

Abstract:

Successful conservation strategies to increase the survival prospects of a population must be accompanied by an accurate knowledge of the population dynamics. In this thesis, I examine the population dynamics of Eurasian cranes (Grus grus) in the UK and assess the impact of a reintroduction on the future population size and distribution. Additionally, I cover other aspects of crane conservation, such as public engagement in crane conservation and crane resilience to extreme weather events. To do so, I use a wide range of tools: Internet-based monitoring methods, stochastic matrix population mo

Abstract:

This thesis aims to achieve a better understanding of: (1) theoretical aspects of humannature relationships; and (2) socio-political dimensions of nature conservation practices. It is the result of social scientific research, and employs, on the basis of a ‘moderate’ social constructivist frame, a multi- (and partly inter-) disciplinary approach. Within the central theme of nature conservation, the concept of wilderness is used as a lens for study, with a specific research focus on ‘rewilding’ and ‘animal reintroduction’ in Scotland and the Netherlands.

Abstract:

Captive-rearing of animals for reintroduction into the wild not only involves propagation of individuals, but should also be concerned with ensuring that animals destined for release have the skills necessary to thrive in the wild. In recent years greater attention as been dedicated to preparing captive-reared individuals for life post-release. Predation is a major cause of mortality of reintroduced animals, but techniques to prepare captive-reared animals to cope with predators are often perceived to be difficult to design and implement.

Conservation reintroduction aims to establish an organism into an area from where it has disappeared or was extirpated.

The Great Bustard (Otis tarda) is globally threatened and became extinct as a breeding species in the United Kingdom (UK) in 1832. Trial releases began in 2004 to reintroduce the Great Bustard to the UK based on the release of captive-reared chicks transported from a source population in Russia.

Wildlife in captivity has a long history of benefiting global conservation goals. Captive animals can raise awareness and appreciation for the conservation of endangered species. Additionally, captive animals can be used as source populations to reintroduce animals back to the wild or to supplement existing wild populations. The rapid increase in amphibian species threatened with imminent extinction has necessitated the creation of dozens of captive-breeding programs.

The southern African population of bearded vultures, Gypaetus barbatus, is declining rapidly and plans for windfarm developments within the core of this species' range threaten to accelerate the population's passage to extinction. As an insurance against such a situation a reintroduction has been proposed to establish a second bearded vulture population within their historic South African range. Before such a scheme could occur suitable areas, if present, will first need to be identified and the requirements and best implementation strategy will need to be determined.

The thesis pursues two themes: The first investigate neophilia, innovation and social learning in captive callitrichid monkeys (family <i>Callitrichidae</i>) and guppy fish (<i>Poecilia reticulata</i>). The second explores the application of innovation and social learning theory and research findings to conservation techniques, especially reintroduction. The thesis relies on data collected in a zoo-based study where groups of callitrichids were exposed to novel extractive foraging tasks and also on data collected from laboratory studies of novel foraging behaviour in the guppy. The use of both

Abstract:

The fisher (Martes pennanti) is a medium sized member of the mustelid family that once roamed the forests of Washington and whose historic range in the western United States once spread throughout the northern Rocky Mountains, the Cascade and Coast Ranges, and the Sierra Nevada (Carroll, Zielinski, and Noss 1999; Powell 1993, Spencer et al. 2011). Due to pressures from trapping and habitat fragmentation, the abundance of the species in the western United States has decreased dramatically and is thought to be limited to several small, isolated populations. In 2008, fishers were reintroduced to

Abstract:

Lors de la reintroduction d'une espece animale dans son milieu naturel, les individus paient souvent un cout biologique apres le lacher. Le corollaire demographique est une population reintroduite peu viable. Ce cout peut s'exprimer a court ou moyen terme sous forme de mortalite ou de reproduction alteree. Il est interprete comme une reaction deletere a un stress plus ou moins aigu. Plusieurs causes de stress peuvent etre avancees : la capture physique et la manipulation, le changement d'environnement, et la qualite du nouvel habitat. Cette these etudie le determinisme de la reussite d'une rei
