We explore various ex-situ breeding management approaches in different environments, in zoos, in fenced nature reserves and game parks, and on islands. We mostly focus on hoofstock – antelope and giraffe, however other taxa are not excluded. We aim to understand how the advanced breeding management practices, know-how and skills acquired in zoos may be directly and indirectly applied into species conservation.
- We help managing the only ex-situ population of Western Derby eland in Senegal
- We study nursing and social behaviour in captive giraffe in EAZA zoos
