Why and how should we use environmental enrichment to tackle stereotypic behaviour (2007, background): “One might also be concerned about how such animals would fare if reintroduced to the wild, a situation in which captive-bred animals often have low success (e.g. Clark et al., 2002; Frantzen et al., 2001; Griffith et al., 1989; and see Watters and Meehan, 2007).”
Rewilding – A New Paradigm for Nature Conservation in Scotland? (2011, background): “The opinions of both the public and landowner have been found to have a decisive effect (perhaps equal to biological factors) on the feasibility of reintroduction programmes, to which they are often opposed (Clark et al. 2002; Ostergren et al. 2008; Worthington et al. 2010).”
Genetics and conservation of European brown bears Ursus arctos (2011, background): “Saarma et al. (2007) studied the mtDNA structure of bears from Eastern Europe and Finland, and suggested that the western Carpathians, present day Slovakia, probably formed an important glacial refugium for the brown bears in the eastern lineage.”
Problems encountered by individuals in animal translocations: Lessons from field studies (2007, background): “This difference was likely linked with maternal behaviour in females released with cubs (eastridge & Clark, 2001). in dormouse, soft-released individuals apparently had resident-like behaviour, travelling less, remaining closer to the release nest box, and using it more than the hard-released ones.”
Terrain use by an expanding brown bear population in relation to age, recreational resorts and human settlements (2007, background): “…T I C L E I N F O Article history: Received 22 May 2006 Received in revised form 12 March 2007 Accepted 9 April 2007 Keywords: Dispersal Disturbance Fragmentation Habitat Reintroduction Tourism 0006-3207/$ - see front matter 2007 Elsevi doi:10.1016/j.biocon.2007.04.011 * Corresponding author: Tel.”
Large carnivore damage in Europe: Analysis of compensation and prevention programs (2019, background): “Finally, in the case of reintroduced and/or reinforced populations, compensation expenditures tend to be higher due partly to authorities' huge efforts to increase tolerance as a critical component for the success of reintroduction programs (Clark et al., 2002; Tosi et al., 2015).”
Large carnivore expansion in Europe is associated with human population density and land cover changes (2021, background): “The effort invested in the conservation of these species (e.g. through reintroduction programs) has contributed to their recovery (Boitani & Linnell, 2015; Chapron et al., 2014), sometimes in spite of poor public acceptance (Clark et al., 2002; Tosi et al., 2015).”
