The process initially involves identifying conservation problems (e.g. declining populations) and diagnosing their proximate and ultimate causes (e.g. socio-economic factors driving negative perceptions of certain species, resulting in illegal killing), and then moves to proposing, designing and implementing actions, and eventually testing the responses of the target species or habitats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the vast majority of the 959 articles published in 20 conservation journals over the last 20 years that were included in the review simply described the \u201cstate of nature\u201d (e.g. this species declined by this much over this time period) or the mechanisms directly causing the observed changes, with very little research on designing or implementing conservation responses. The authors do not suggest that each article should address all of these steps at once, but that there should be a shift towards trying to understand the sources and drivers of change, as well as a much-needed focus on designing workable and socio-economically realistic interventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vulture conservation used as best practice example<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately there are examples of good practice of how researchers followed the framework to deliver effective conservation science, and vultures featured as a case study in the article. Specifically, the response to diclofenac poisoning, which caused the collapse of South Asian vulture populations, was used as a good example of how \u201csuccessful mission-oriented conservation science did indeed follow this pattern.\u201d The research sequence started by establishing that vulture populations had recently and rapidly declined; then identified the cause as accidental poisoning by diclofenac; then moved on to proposing, designing, implementing and testing a range of interventions such as captive breeding and providing safe food at vulture restaurants, identifying a safe alternative to diclofenac (meloxicam), and preventing the use of diclofenac for veterinary use. Continued monitoring then established that vulture populations had responded to these interventions, with declines slowing and some populations increasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This describes the history of the SAVE consortium \u2013 Saving Asia\u2019s Vultures from Extinction \u2013 which can be read in full&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.2989\/00306525.2017.1331583\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here,<\/a>&nbsp;which also forms the basis of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cms.int\/raptors\/en\/workinggroup\/multi-species-action-plan-conserve-african-eurasian-vultures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Plano de A\u00e7\u00e3o Multiesp\u00e9cies para a Conserva\u00e7\u00e3o dos Abutres da \u00c1frica-Eur\u00e1sia<\/a>&nbsp;and the other vulture conservation action plans that the VCF and partners have developed.

We hope it is clear from the regular research summaries posted on VCF\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/pt\/2018\/12\/06\/vulture-research-update-october-november\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website<\/a>&nbsp;that there are many more examples of valuable research being done that directly informs vulture conservation strategies (for Egyptian Vultures for&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/appliedecologistsblog.com\/2019\/02\/20\/long-term-european-life-project-key-for-the-recovery-of-an-endangered-egyptian-vulture-population\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">example<\/a>), and the ongoing recovery of vulture populations across Europe are a testament to the great efforts made by researchers and practitioners working together towards shared goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Source<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Williams, DR, Balmford, A, Wilcove, DS.
