From the author: Dans le rapport de la Commission d'enquete sur certains evenements survenus a la Prison pour femmes de Kingston (1996), la juge Arbour a formule 14 recommandations generales. Or, meme si les instances ont accepte et mis en ceuvre plusieurs d'entre elles, une recommandation en particulier n'a toujours pas ete rejetee ou acceptee de facon definitive. L'auteure de ce commentaire passe en revue les raisons qui ont motive cette recommandation (no 8), analyse les facteurs qui expliqueraient l'inaction des instances a cet egard et essaie d'envisager le sort eventuel de la recommandation.

Description:
Reintroduction or re-enforcement programmes are major tools in species conservation, but there is a need for more studies that assess the influence of different husbandry and release methods on the survival of released animals. We investigated the survival of globally threatened Marbled Teal (Marmaronetta angustirostris) taken into captivity as ducklings when they became trapped in an irrigation channel, then released again after fledging. We used wing tags and mark-recapture models to estimate the survival of released teal. Ducklings rescued in 1996 (n=53) were released soon after fledging in September and their survival was modelled for seven months until April 1997. Their apparent monthly survival rate (lower than true survival owing to loss of wing tags) was 0.85+/-0.12 (+/-s.e.). Ducklings rescued in 1997 (n=44) were released together in February 1998 over five months after fledging, and their survival was modelled for six months from February until August. Their apparent monthly survival rate was 0.54+/-0.06. Ducklings rescued in 1998 (n=159) were released in August-September soon after fledging and their survival was modelled for 10 months from August until June. Their apparent monthly survival rate was 0.83+/-0.07. Monthly survival was significantly higher for the 1996 and 1998 cohort, suggesting that retaining birds in captivity after fledging had a negative impact on post-release survival. When birds were released in February, a lower proportion survived until the breeding season three months later than when they were released five months earlier in September. .
