New framework guides relocating endangered species to safer habitats
Original: New framework developed for moving endangered species to safer locations
Researchers, including scientists at the University of Hawaii, have developed a new framework for moving endangered species to safer locations as habitats become increasingly threatened by climate change and other pressures. The framework is intended to help conservationists decide when and how to relocate vulnerable animal and plant populations, a practice known as managed relocation, in a more structured and scientifically grounded way.
Why now: Growing concern over climate change driving species toward extinction is prompting renewed attention to managed relocation as a conservation tool.
