"Reintroduction of Fish and Wildlife Populations provides a practical step-by-step guide to planning, implementing, and evaluating the successful re-establishment of animal populations in former habitats or the introduction of them in new environments. In each chapter, experts in reintroduction biology outline a comprehensive synthesis of core concepts, issues, techniques, and perspectives. This manual and reference supports scientists and managers from fisheries and wildlife professions as they plan reintroductions, initiate releases of individuals, and manage restored populations over time. Focusing on a broad range of taxonomic groups, ecosystems, and global regions, this edited volume is an essential guide for academics, students, and professionals in natural resource management"--Provided by publisher.
