Invasive mammal eradication on islands results in substantial conservation gains

TL;DR: The global benefits of an increasingly used conservation action to stem biodiversity loss: eradication of invasive mammals on islands are estimated to be 107 highly threatened birds, mammals, and reptiles on the IUCN Red List—6% of all these highly threatened species—likely have benefitted from invasive mammal eradications on islands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feral Goat Eradications on Islands

TL;DR: Because of the presence of humans with domestic goat populations on large islands, future island conservation actions will require eradication programs that involve local island inhabitants in a collaborative approach with biologists, sociologists, and educators.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eradicating multiple invasive species on inhabited islands: the next big step in island restoration?

TL;DR: A global analysis of 1,224 successful eradications of invasive plants and animals on 808 islands shows that eradication is more feasible on islands than on continents, but plant and invertebrate eradications occur more often on inhabited islands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conservation action in the Galapagos: Feral pig (Sus scrofa) eradication from Santiago Island

TL;DR: The successful removal of pigs from Santiago Island sets a new precedent, nearly doubling the current size of a successful eradication, and is leading to more ambitious projects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ecological history and latent conservation potential: Large and giant tortoises as a model for taxon substitutions

TL;DR: Evidence that large and giant tortoises (family Testudinidae) are a useful model to rapidly provide empirical assessments of the use of taxon substitutes on a comparatively smaller scale is presented and discussed.
