Assisted migration is the practice of deliberately populating members of a species from their present habitat to a new region with the intent of establishing a permanent presence there, generally in response to the degradation of the natural habitat due to human action.

Assisted migration flies in the face of conventional management approaches that attempt to re establish habitat corridors that allow species to disperse in response to a changing climate. There is good reason to be skeptical of this conservation strategy given that history has shown that species introduced outside of their native range can be associated with negative ecological, evolutionary, and economic impacts Ricciardi and Simberloff 2009 .
