Captive Breeding
There has been a major shift of emphasis of zoos from recreation to conservation. Information gathered through research undertaken at zoos assists in conservation and management decisions.
Captive breeding programmes conducted in zoological parks produce individuals for release into the wild in reintroduction programmes, so boosting wild populations.
