Conservation translocation of the Vietnam Pheasant to central Vietnam

 

Project aims

Conduct an IUCN SSC Conservation Translocation Specialist Group facilitated Conservation Translocation Protocols workshop led by Viet Nature and Zoological Society London to develop robust plans for carrying out releases of Vietnam Pheasants bred in ex-situ conservation breeding centres in Vietnam.

Results

The project strengthened collaboration among national and international partners of the Vietnam Pheasant Recovery Team and established a shared, collaborative framework for the recovery of the Vietnam Pheasant. By combining expertise from ex situ conservation, translocation science, protected area management, and decision science, the collaboration improved the scientific basis of the programme and increased the likelihood of establishing self-sustaining populations of Vietnam Phesants in the future.
