<br />.01 17 REPI.,ICE_MLNT COSTS OF WILDLIFE RESOURCES
<br />(a) Replacement Costs Distinguished. As it applies to wJdlife resources, the term ' rcplaccmcnt
<br />casts" must be distinuuished from the "valuc" of the wildlife concemcd. Exccpt in csscs N\-herc wildlife
<br />specimens may la\%full\' be sold on the open market, as with the carcasses or pelts of furbcaring ani.rnals,
<br />the monetary valuc of the spvcirnens cannot be dctcnrtincd easily. -1-hc degree of special interest or
<br />conccm in a particular spccics by the public, including not only .huntcrs and trappers but
<br />conscn•atiortists and those to whom the value of NvildGlc resourccs is primarily aesthetic, cannot be
<br />measured in dollar amounts. The avcragc cost per animal or.bud legally taken by huntcrs, including
<br />travel and Iodg2ng, wcapons and ammunition, c.ccisc taxes on equipment, Uccnscs, and hunting club
<br />fees, may fairly be estimated. This too, however, is a reflection of the value of existing wildlife resources
<br />rather than a measure of the cost of its rcplaccmcnt. Thus, the relative valucs of wildlife sPI:eics should
<br />be considered only as they may bear on the necessity or dcsirabi.Uty of actual rcplaccmcnt.
<br />(b) Factors to I3c Considered. The factors wl 6ch should be considered in cictcrnining the rcplacc-
<br />mcnt costs of resident spccics of wildlife resourccs that havc been taken, injured, rcmo%-cd, harmfully
<br />altered, damaged, or destroyed include the following:
<br />(1) whether the spccics is classified as endangered or ducatcncd;
<br />(2) tic relative frequency of occurrence of the spccics in the state;
<br />(3) the extent of ctiisting habitat suitable for the spccics within the state;
<br />(4) the dcpcndcncy of the spccics on urniquc habitat requircrrtcnts;
<br />(5)' the cost of acquiring, by purchase or long -term lease, lands and waters for habitat development;
<br />(6) the cost of improvng and maintaining suitable habitat for the spccics on lands and waters
<br />o %\•ncd or acqui.rcd;
<br />(7) the cost of Uvc- trapping the spccics ui areas of adequate populations and tran'splantuio tttctrt to
<br />areas of suitable habitat with low populations;
<br />(S) the availability of the spccics and the cost of acquisition for restocking purposes;
<br />(9) the cost of rcaring in captivity those spccics Nvluch, when rcicascd, have a probability of survival
<br />in the wi]d;
<br />(10) the ratio bcm,ccn the natural lift expectant), of the species and the period of its probable sur-
<br />vival when, having been reared in captivity, it is released to the wild;
