Characteristics for evaluating the conservation value of species hybrids

2015-08-01

Abstract excerpt

The extent and rationale for protecting species hybrids in North America is inconsistent, leading to gaps in species conservation. Currently, neither the Canadian Species at Risk Act nor the U.S. Endangered Species Act provide protection or management guidelines for hybrids. Hybrids are often viewed negatively, but occur frequently and do not always result in negative ecological or genetic consequences. With the g...
