Abstract It is intuitive that the health status of wildlife might influence conservation translocation outcomes, however, health as a topic has received limited attention in the conservation translocation literature. We determined the forms and frequency of disease and other biological problems reported in translocated animals and plants, and in populations linked to translocation, and associations between their mention and translocation ‘success’. From these problems we deduced the forms of ill‐health potentially associated with conservation translocation and developed contextual frameworks to inform health management. Using described selection criteria, a subset of case studies of animal and plant conservation translocation from the IUCN's ‘Global Reintroduction Perspectives’ series (2008–2018) was reviewed. Self‐reported information describing or implying mortality, ill‐health or reproductive compromise was extracted and categorized as a ‘disease’ or other biological problem. Problems explicitly described as a ‘major difficulty’, ‘major lesson’ or ‘reason for failure’ were termed ‘notable’. We specified the conditions representing ill‐health and created diagrams illustrating their relationships to other biological problems and processes, and management measures. Notable ‘disease’ problems such as infection, (as in stress‐related) and husbandry‐related disorders were reported in 30% of 295 reviewed case studies and were more likely to be mentioned in less ‘successful’ projects (P |
