Giraffe populations have declined dramatically in the last three decades. Giraffe translocations are likely to increase as wildlife managers seek to augment or re‐establish populations. Currently, formal practical guidance for giraffe translocations is limited. Here, we present a review of translocation guidelines emphasising planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation, and we review giraffe behaviour and ecology to provide recommendations specific to the translocation of giraffes. We also aim to stimulate discussion about best practices for giraffe translocations and further research into the ethical and practical considerations of moving giraffes.

长颈鹿易位：审查和注意事项的讨论

在过去的三十年中，长颈鹿的数量急剧下降。随着野生动物管理者寻求增加或重建种群，长颈鹿的易位性可能会增加。目前，关于长颈鹿易位的正式实用指南很有限。在这里，我们对易位指南进行了概述，重点是规划，实施，监视和评估，并且我们对长颈鹿的行为和生态学进行了概述，以提供针对长颈鹿易位的建议。我们还旨在激发有关长颈鹿易位最佳做法的讨论，并进一步研究移动长颈鹿的伦理和实践考虑。
