Conservation translocations involve the deliberate movement and release of plants, animals or fungi into the wild for conservation purposes. Conservation translocations, such as reintroductions, can provide a conservation benefit by increasing the number of individuals or places in which a species occurs. They can also offset biodiversity declines caused by habitat loss, climate change, or other human impacts on the environment.
