Abstract
Re-introduction is one tool for conserving great apes and their natural habitats. These guidelines adapt other IUCN documents to pertain specifically to the re-introduction of great apes. The adaptation is justified by alarming declines in great ape populations and the destruction of their habitats, and because great apes are biologically and cognitively specialized and advanced, and generate particular animal welfare concerns.The re-introduction process should begin by the appointment of a multidisciplinary specialist advisory team. The project manager should write a detailed proposal stating the project’s background, objectives, methodology, schedule and budget addressing each of the subsequent steps listed below. The proposal should include quantifiable measures by which the project’s success can be assessed. The proposal should be reviewed by the advisory team and by external reviewers.
