This is a wide-ranging book that will be of relevance to anyone involved in species conservation, and provides critical perspectives on the real utility of current and emerging reproductive sciences. Understanding reproductive biology is centrally important to the way many of the world?s conservation problems should be tackled. Currently the extinction problem is huge, with up to 30% of the world?s fauna being expected to disappear in the next 50 years. Nevertheless, it has been estimated that the global population of animals in zoos encompasses 12,000 ? 15,000 species, and we anticipate that every effort will be made to preserve these species for as long as possible, minimizing inbreeding effects and providing the best welfare standards available. Even if the reproductive biology community cannot solve the global biodiversity crisis for all wild species, we should do our best to maintain important captive populations. Reproductive biology in this context is much more than the development of techniques for helping with too little or too much breeding. While some of the relevant techniques are useful for individual species that society might target for a variety of reasons, whether nationalistic, cultural or practical, technical developments have to be backed up by thorough biological understanding of the background behind the problems. 410 0$aAdvances in Experimental Medicine and Biology,$x2214-8019 ;$v1200 606 $aAnimal culture 606 $aReproductive health 606 $aMedicine$xResearch 606 $aBiology$xResearch 606 $aAnimal Science 606 $aReproductive Medicine 606 $aBiomedical Research 615 0$aAnimal culture. 615 0$aReproductive health. 615 0$aMedicine$xResearch. 615 0$aBiology$xResearch. 615 14$aAnimal Science. 615 24$aReproductive Medicine. 615 24$aBiomedical Research. 676 $a612.6 676 $a571.81 702 $aComizzoli$b Pierre$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBrown$b Janine L$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHolt$b William V$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349445903321 996 $aReproductive Sciences in Animal Conservation$92115708 997 $aUNINA
