... or real. Once again, education has a critical role. In conclusion, conservation on a species by species basis is expensive and risky. Programmes to preserve individual species must be approached with a cold eye towards priority, the chances of success and the oppor- tunity costs of one conservation...

The loss of juveniles into areas where mortality from traffic and introduced predators is high...

... undergraduate psychology courses, Calver and Bryant have seen that some personalities have a different perception of the world, the animals they see, how to interpret evidence, or even see what others see and understand.

... at nearby floodplain sites. Long-necked Turtles are especially vulnerable because they move from permanently-inundated areas into highly-productive ephemeral wetlands following flooding (Kennett 1996). That migration requires risky terrestrial travel between the dam and the floodplain below, rendering...

...). In contrast, only hens with chicks and adult males call in the presence of aerial predators. Aerial predators are fast moving hunters and any noise increases the likelihood of detection and capture (Wood et al. 2000). Therefore aerial alarm calls are risky. Calling is hence subject to a set of criteria...

... on many different nights in a season after rainfall (F. Lemckert and M. Mahony, pers. obs The reasons for the brevity of the calling activity of Green-thighed Frogs compared to other species are uncertain. Such a strategy appears risky as poor rainfall can prevent any calling within a season and ponds...

However, movement itself could be risky in the sense that locations and timings of suitable resources are unpredictable and irregular (Mac Nally...

... to translocate bell fogs, they often fail. The problems encountered during our study are similar to those experienced with translocations and reintroductions of L. aurea in New South Wales (Daly et al. 2008; Pyke et al. 2008; White and Pyke 2008). They highlight the risky nature of this management approach...
