“…As a concept, translocation seems a relatively straightforward task to carry out but, in fact, it needs a rigorous planning of all the steps involved in the process, including appropriate collection, handling and transport methods, assessment of habitat stability and suitable environmental and biological conditions in the recipient site, among others (Cope et al, 2003;Dunn et al, 2000;Luzier & Miller 2009;Moorkens 2017;Pires et al, 2020). In addition, any translocation plan should include a careful evaluation of the tradeoffs between conservation benefits and the costs and risks for the target species, so as for other species present in the recipient community (Cope & Waller, 1995;IUCN/SSC, 2013;Tsakiris et al, 2017;Brian et al, 2021). Finally, it is also essential to establish a longterm monitoring plan to assess the success or failure of the action (Luzier & Miller, 2009;Germano et al, 2015;Jourdan et al, 2019).…”
