Auswilderungsprojekte (reintroduction projects) involve releasing captive-bred or rehabilitated animals back into their natural habitats to restore populations or establish new ones.
Naturschutzgebiete: Naturschutzgebiete (nature reserves) are protected areas designated for the conservation of biodiversity and ecosystems. They often serve as suitable release sites for auswilderungsprojekte.
Monitoring: Monitoring involves systematically observing and collecting data on released animals to assess their survival rates, behavior, and integration into the wild population.
Habitatverlust: Habitatverlust (habitat loss) refers to the destruction or degradation of natural habitats due to human activities such as deforestation, urbanization, or pollution. It is one of the main reasons why auswilderungsprojekte are necessary.
