Directions in reintroduction biology
DP Armstrong, PJ Seddon - Trends in ecology & evolution, 2008 - cell.com
Reintroductions are attempts to return species to parts of their historical ranges where they
were extirpated, and might involve release of either captive-bred or wild-caught individuals …

Captive-reared burrowing owls show higher site-affinity, survival, and reproductive performance when reintroduced using a soft-release
AM Mitchell, TI Wellicome, D Brodie, KM Cheng - Biological conservation, 2011 - Elsevier
A remaining challenge for animal reintroductions is how best to aid individuals transitioning
from captivity into the wild. We tested two techniques–'soft'vs.'hard'release–in a 7-year study …
