Individual adaptation and ecological environmental change monitoring in the restoration target site
「Monitoring individual adaptation and ecological environment changes after radiation/transplantation of the restoration site」is a new task that started in ‘21, and is a core basic research project directly conducted by the Restoration Lab of the Research Center for Endangered Species (National Institute of Ecology). It conducts research on radiation and transplanted individuals with the goal of restoring endangered species, successful settlement in their habitats, and preparing sustainable conservation measures. The results of this study are based on the establishment of guidelines according to restoration procedures such as habitat characteristics-based breeding, release, and ex post evaluation according to the Ministry of Environment's 「Comprehensive Plan for Conservation of Endangered Wildlife (2018~27)」, and 「For the protection and management of wild animals」 It can be used as basic data for the implementation of Article 13 of the Act on Endangered Wildlife (Establishment of Conservation Measures, etc.) in Republic of Korea.

Potential conservation benefits in saving biodiversity
Potential reduction of species extinction risk resulting from threat abatement actions
Absolute value (STAR)
1.5% of the total biodiversity conservation potential of Republic of Korea is covered by this project.
0.3% of Asia's biodiversity conservation potential is from Republic of Korea.
25.9% of global biodiversity conservation potential is from Asia.
The chart below represents the relative disaggregation of the selected contribution's total potential opportunity for reducing global species extinction risk through taking actions to abate different threats to species within its boundaries. The percentages refer to the amount of the total opportunity that could potentially be achieved through abating that particular threat.
