Table 4 Objective function and constraints of reserve selection problems for the pheasant example. Due to the fact that G. gallus is contained in all but one area there are many area-split constraints of the form ys £ zBT + zID + zIN + zLK + zPH + zMY + zTH + zVN . Such constraints are redundant since k ≥ 2, and thus omitted
