(2011) that rather than relocating endangered species, a focus should be placed on local adaptations of foundation or keystone species, and that these local ecotypes should be moved within their own range. Hence, this type of relocation could be applied with minimal risk in many restoration ...
Habitat heterogeneity is considered a primary causal driver underpinning patterns of diversity, yet the universal role of heterogeneity in structuring biodiversity is unclear due to a lack of coordinated experiments testing its effects across geographic scales and habitat types. Furthermore, key species in...
Elk act as a keystone species, meaning their absence in an ecosystem would cause significant harm to other species given the elk’s role as prey for some animal species and as a consumer of many plant species. Put simply, the work done by RMEF is work we can, and do, get behind. “...
