This study investigates the colonisation of Praslin Island by C. vanzoi, three years after the translocation event. An examination of habitat use, lizard abundance, distribution and population genetics was conducted and population comparisons investigated changes in morphometrics or lizard condition since translocation. These investigations were cunducted during the wet season and the dry season. This information will help determine the value of translocation as a tool for the conservation of this species. 2014-08-13T14:17:26Z 2014-08-13T14:17:26Z 2000 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6251 eng application/pdf University of Cape Town Faculty of Science Department of Biological Sciences
