... Variation in productivity is usually included in simulation models but variation in the age of first breeding is largely ignored in PVAs (Antor et al., 2007;Bretagnolle, Inchausti, Seguin, & Thibault, 2004;Evans et al., 2009;Margalida, 2017;Margalida, Colomer, Oro, Arlettaz, & Donázar, 2015;Naveda-Rodríguez, Vargas, Kohn, & Zapata-Ríos, 2016;Radovic & Mikuska, 2009). Nevertheless, in most reintroduction programs a lower than expected age of first breeding was reported (Evans et al., 1999(Evans et al., , 2009Muriel, Ferrer, Casado, Madero, & Calabiug, 2011;Muriel, Ferrer, Casado, & Pérez Calabuig, 2010;Sarrazin, Bagnolinp, Pinna, & Danchin, 1996;Woods et al., 2007) showing that age of first breeding decreases as predicted in a low-density situation. ...
