According to the authors, approximately 53% of terrestrial birds, mammals, and amphibians occupy habitats that cross international borders making “transboundary conversation” crucial to preventing further species decline. They provide an index of “transboundary conservation feasibility” using metrics of governance, collaboration, and human pressure. Distinct opportunities exist in South-East Asia, Northern Europe, North America and South America. There is also a need to invest in regions that present challenges to implementing conservation efforts (e.g., Central Africa). Such regions will require interventions that correspond with the local socio-cultural context and that rapidly address conservation needs that arise after conflict.
