A Global Analysis of Tortoise and Freshwater Turtle Distributions with Identification of Priority Conservation Areas (2009, background): “Turtles are disproportionately represented among threatened vertebrate species that require conservation action at the landscape scale (Boyd et al. 2008), but often fall outside traditional conservation priority regions.”
Poor overlap between the distribution of Protected Areas and globally threatened birds in Africa (2011, background): “, in press), and is considered to be the highest single immediate priority for the conservation of 82% of globally threatened mammals, birds, amphibians, tortoises and turtles (Boyd et al., 2008).”
Differential impact of landscape transformation on pumas (Puma concolor) and jaguars (Panthera onca) in the Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest (2011, background): “, 2004), enhancing the need of understanding their response to human pressures at large scales (Boyd et al., 2008).”
Ghosts of the coast: global extinction risk and conservation of sawfishes (2016, background): “While large geographic ranges confer safety upon terrestrial species (Boyd et al., 2008), the vast geographic ranges of many marine species presents a challenge for their assessment and conservation (Wallace et al., 2011; McClenachan et al., 2012).”
The silent extinction: climate change and the potential hybridization-mediated extinction of endemic high-mountain plants (2015, background): “As Boyd et al. (2008) pointed out, conservation problems usually overpass the extent of a single site constituting a large landscape-scale issue, so the solution or mitigation must be also at large scale.”
