Wildlife recovery centres are widespread worldwide and their goal is the rehabilitation of wildlife and the subsequent release of healthy animals to appropriate habitats in the wild. The activity of the Genoese Wildlife Recovery Centre (CRAS) from 2015 to 2020 was analysed to assess its contribution to the conservation of biodiversity and to determine the main factors affecting the survival rate of the most abundant species. In particular, the analyses focused upon the cause, provenance and species of hospitalised animals, the seasonal distribution of recoveries and the outcomes of hospitalisation in the different species. In addition, an in-depth analysis of the anthropogenic causes was conducted, with a particular focus on attempts of predation by domestic animals, especially cats. Significantly, 96.8% of animals hospitalised came from Liguria, the region in north-western Italy where CRAS is located, with 44.8% coming from the most populated and urbanised areas of Genoa, indicating a positive correlation between population density and the number of recoveries. A total of 5881 wild animals belonging to 162 species were transferred to CRAS during the six years study period. The presence of summer migratory bird species and the high reproductive rates of most animals in summer resulted in a corresponding seasonal peak of treated animals. Birds represented 80.9% of entries; mammals accounted for 18.6% of hospitalisations; and about 0.5% of the entries were represented by reptiles and amphibians. Species protected by CITES and/or in IUCN Red List amounted to 8% of the total number of individuals. Consistent with results recorded elsewhere from Italy and other European countries, 53.9% of the specimens treated were released in nature; 4.7% were euthanised and 41.4% died. There was a significant difference between taxa in the frequency of individuals that were released, died or euthanised due to the intrinsic characteristics of species (more resistant or more adaptable to captivity than others) and/or to the types of debilitative occurrences common to each species (e.g. infections, wounds, traumas, fractures). A total of 14.2% of wildlife recovery was from injuries caused with certainty by people or domestic animals (human impact), with 54.3% of these hospitalised animals having been victims of predation attempts by domestic animals, mainly cats. The percentage of release in nature of animals hospitalised following human impact was significantly lower than overall cases (31.2% vs. 53.9%) due to the greater severity of the injuries. The percentage of animals released showed a further reduction to 27.1% amongst victims of predation attempts by pets. The work of Rehabilitation/Recovery Centres contributes to wildlife conservation. In particular, the CRAS in Genoa is a Centre with an increasing level of activity concerning the rehabilitation of species under CITES protection and/or included on the IUCN Red List. The contribution and experience of CRAS operators is critical for the success of ‘information campaigns’ aimed at limiting the number of stray dogs and cats because of their impact on wildlife. Therefore, the activity of a properly-managed CRAS can significantly contribute both directly and indirectly to wildlife conservation, resulting in important territorial safeguards for the protection of biodiversity.

意大利恢复中心对野生动植物保护的贡献

野生动物恢复中心遍布世界各地,其目标是野生动植物的恢复以及随后将健康动物释放到野外适当的栖息地。分析了2015年至2020年热那亚野生动物恢复中心(CRAS)的活动,以评估其对生物多样性保护的贡献,并确定影响最丰富物种存活率的主要因素。具体而言,分析的重点是住院动物的原因,出处和种类,恢复的季节分布以及不同物种住院的结果。此外,对人为原因进行了深入分析,特别着重于家畜,特别是猫的掠食尝试。值得注意的是,住院的动物中有96.8%来自利古里亚,意大利西北部CRAS所在的地区,其中44.8%来自热那亚人口最多和城市化程度最高的地区,这表明人口密度与恢复数量之间呈正相关。在为期六年的研究期内,共有588种属于162种野生动物被转移到CRAS。夏季候鸟的存在和大多数动物在夏季的高繁殖率导致了相应的季节性处理高峰。鸟类占参赛作品的80.9%;哺乳动物占住院治疗的18.6%;大约0.5%的条目是爬行动物和两栖动物。受《濒危野生动植物种国际贸易公约》和/或《自然保护联盟红色名录》保护的物种占总数的8%。与意大利和其他欧洲国家/地区的记录结果一致53。处理过的标本中有9%是自然释放的;安乐死的占4.7%,死亡的占41.4%。由于物种的内在特征(比其他物种更具抵抗力或更适合被囚禁)和/或每种物种常见的衰弱事件的类型,被释放,死亡或安乐死的个体的分类频率之间存在显着差异(例如感染,伤口,创伤,骨折)。总计有14.2%的野生动植物恢复源于确定的人为或家畜(人为影响)造成的伤害,其中54.3%的住院动物曾遭受过家畜(主要是猫)的捕食企图。人为影响后住院动物的自然释放百分比显着低于总体病例(31.2%比53)。9%),因为受伤的严重程度更高。在被宠物捕食的受害者中,释放出的动物百分比进一步下降到27.1%。康复/恢复中心的工作有助于保护野生动植物。特别是,热那亚的CRAS是一个中心,其活动范围与受CITES保护和/或列入IUCN红色名录的物种的恢复有关。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。在被宠物捕食的受害者中,释放出的动物百分比进一步下降到27.1%。康复/恢复中心的工作有助于保护野生动植物。特别是,热那亚的CRAS是一个中心,其活动涉及受CITES保护和/或列入IUCN红色名录的物种的恢复。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。在被宠物捕食的受害者中,释放出的动物百分比进一步下降到27.1%。康复/恢复中心的工作有助于保护野生动植物。特别是,热那亚的CRAS是一个中心,其活动范围与受CITES保护和/或列入IUCN红色名录的物种的恢复有关。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。在被宠物捕食的受害者中,只有1%。康复/恢复中心的工作有助于保护野生动植物。特别是,热那亚的CRAS是一个中心,其活动范围与受CITES保护和/或列入IUCN红色名录的物种的恢复有关。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。在被宠物捕食的受害者中,只有1%。康复/恢复中心的工作有助于保护野生动植物。特别是,热那亚的CRAS是一个中心,其活动范围与受CITES保护和/或列入IUCN红色名录的物种的恢复有关。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。特别是,热那亚的CRAS是一个中心,其活动范围与受CITES保护和/或列入IUCN红色名录的物种的恢复有关。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。特别是,热那亚的CRAS是一个中心,其活动范围与受CITES保护和/或列入IUCN红色名录的物种的恢复有关。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。CRAS运营商的贡献和经验对于旨在限制流浪猫和狗的数量的“信息运动”的成功至关重要,因为它们对野生动植物的影响。因此,妥善管理CRAS的活动可以直接或间接地极大地促进野生动植物的保护,从而为保护生物多样性提供重要的领土保障。
