The ability to safely and effectively manage reproduction is central to the success of AZA captive-breeding programs. Although the AZA Wildlife Contraception Center routinely monitors contraceptive safety, there have been no studies that co...
Differential effects of dietary protein on early life-history and morphological traits in natterjack toad (Epidalea calamita) tadpoles reared in captivity [0.03%]

The production of high quality amphibian larvae through optimal diets is a critical component of amphibian conservation breeding programs. Larval period, survival, body weight and total length are frequently used as metrics of adequate nutr...
Growth and development of captive Geocrinia rosea (Myobatrachidae): a rare species analogue [0.03%]

We used 10 microsatellite DNA markers originally described for two Crotalus and one Sistrurus species to infer paternity in a captive-hatched clutch of Lachesis muta. Although the dam was known, records listed two potential sires, which pre...
Partial replacement of an artificial nectar diet with native browse for feather-tail gliders (Acrobates pygmaeus) in captivity [0.03%]
以人工蜂花粉饮食部分替换袋貂(Acrobates pygmaeus)的本地攀缘植物叶片:圈养条件下的尝试性研究

A minimally invasive method for gender determination in the prehensile-tailed porcupine (Coendou prehensilis) [0.03%]
一种用于测定卷尾刺鼠(Coendou prehensilis)性别的微创方法

Ana Margarita Woc-Colburn et al.
Prehensile-tailed porcupines (Coendou prehensilis), like other rodents, lack external sexual traits, making it difficult to non-invasively determine their gender. By exploiting genetic differences between the X and the Y chromosome, we deve...
The causes of the low breeding success of European mink (Mustela lutreola) in captivity [0.03%]
欧洲水貂(Mustela lutreola)人工养殖繁殖率低的原因分析

Reintroduction attempts have faced low, albeit improving, success rates, especially for threatened and endangered species reintroduced from captivity to the wild. This is not only a concern for conservation, as the low success of reintroduc...
Eliminative behavior of captive numbats, Myrmecobius fasciatus (Mammalia; Marsupialia): pattern and identification of fecal deposits [0.03%]
人工饲养新蚁虎属动物(Myrmecobius fasciatus Mammalia;Marsupialia)的排泄行为:粪便排放的方式及识别
