Need for a merge
Unless I'm mistaken, this article and Translocation (wildlife conservation) cover the same ground. I hope somebody with some expertise in the area is up for a merge. Thank you. SchreiberBike (talk) 01:09, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Material Soon to be Added
This article is a good beginning to understanding wildlife translocation. It is, however, lacking some integral points about translocation that should be considered. Species translocation among different groups of vertebrates and invertebrates should be differentiated. For example, the success of mammal translocation is far better than amphibian translocations. Also, the different reasons for translocation should be expanded. The difference between fish and bird translocation is a good example. Biological control should be referenced and at least briefly touched upon since many insect translocations happen because of this (many in response to accidental insect translocations), as one example. Finally, the reason for failure section is severely lacking; species life history constraints, one of the major reasons for translocation failure, is not even mentioned.

I intend to make many of these changes to this page and, of course, will add all appropriate and needed citations. --Jungen87 (talk) 15:43, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
