We review the indexed scientific literature (233 papers) dealing with 'restocking'of
vertebrates, ie reinforcement of wild populations by release of individuals of the same …

Our understanding of any system constitutes a model of that system. In a reintroduction, the
systems of interest are usually the source population, the reintroduced population, the …

Illegal human behaviour such as those affecting natural resource use or resulting from
human–wildlife conflicts threaten the sustainable management of ecosystems and the …

For as long as people have been moving from one place to another, which is as long as
humans have been 'human', animals and plants have been moved with them, often hidden …

The dynamics of many populations is strongly affected by immigrants. However, estimating
and modelling immigration is a real challenge. In the past, several methods have been …

Since threatened species are generally incapable of surviving in their current, altered
natural environments, many conservation programs require to preserve them through ex situ …

Despite recent efforts to develop the science of reintroduction biology, there is still no
general and broadly accepted definition of reintroduction success. We investigate this issue …

Background Human-predator conflicts are directly or indirectly threatening many species
with extinction. Thus, biologists are urged to find simple solutions to complex situations while …

Reintroduction can be necessary for recovering populations of threatened species.
However, the success of reintroduction efforts has been poorer than many biologists and …

Protected natural areas deserve the combination of nature uniqueness and conservation
willing. The foundation stone for National Parks is the awareness of that unique character …
