The deliberate movement of individuals of species from one site for release to another (i.e., translocation) is a conservation tool used with increasing frequency (Seddon et al., 2007). "Conservation translocations," as opposed to those conducted purely for commercial objectives or to reduce human-wildlife conflict, have the purpose to yield a "measurable conservation benefit at the levels of a population, species, or ecosystem" (IUCN SSC, 2013). In other words, the benefit should go beyond the translocated individual. Conservation translocations are conducted to maintain gene flow, for example, during metapopulation management, or as part of a reinforcement or reintroduction program, to restore animals to an area where they are threatened or no longer occur. Due to their prey requirements and potential for human-wildlife conflict, carnivores, especially large species, are considered harder to translocate than herbivores (Wolf et al., 1996). However, there have been successful carnivore reintroduction programs, for example, gray wolves (Canis lupus), Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx), and brown bears (Ursus arctos) (Hayward and Somers, 2009).
