Reintroduction/restoration of populations

Species has suffered catastrophic declines in the state, to the point of extirpation (or near extirpation). Former range, causes of decline, and habitat needs are generally known, but may require some additional research. Existing populations are clearly imperiled and not likely to persist without intervention. Primary conservation emphasis will be on augmenting existing populations and/or establishing new populations through a variety of methods... More
