Please Printed on Re~ycledPaper contact the Endangered Species UPDATE office for more information. @ Note From The Editor My vision for this Special Issue began quite simply. The idea started with the observation that as the public's realization of the seriousness of today's environmental problems and the plight of a growing number of species has increased, so has the use of conservation management techniques, such as captive propagation and reintroduction, requiring resource-intensive manipulation of individuals, populations, and communities. On the one hand, I am excited about this rapidly growing body of management knowledge -- such as that concerning genetics, population viability analysis, and captive breeding protocols -- and the options that such new skills may offer to snatch back species teetering on the brink of extinction. Yet, on the other hand, I am wary of this human tendency of ours to try to solve environmental problems like habitat degradation and loss of biodiversity -- which are ultimately caused by human technology and disruption of ecological systems -- with increased human technology and even more "invasive" (from the viewpoint of the species) management methods. Thus, even while I applaud the management progress being made with endangered species, I wonder to what avail is the perfection of captive breeding techniques such as double-clutching, artificial insemination, and cross-fostering,if we still are unable to find workable resource use solutions to the problems which caused most species to become endangered in the first place. Therefore, with both interest and reservations about the increased use of captive propagation and . reintroduction, I began collecting articles from authors (many more than I originally intended!) which explore the whole spectrum of the topic: what captive breeding and reintroduction programs are currently underway, what are their goals and strategies, are they appropriate -- both in terms of effectiveness and ethics -- and finally, how well they actually are working in the field. The Special Issue begins with two articles providing general overviews of large-scale captive breeding and reintroduction initiatives for both plants and animals, followed by several pieces evaluating the effectiveness of past reintroductions, the genetics of captively breeding populations of rare species, and guidelines for determining when reintroductions are appropriate. Next comes a handful of articles addressing the appropriateness of captive breeding and reintroduction as a means of preserving endangered species, includ- ing discussions of effectiveness,measures of value and success of such programs, and ethical considerations. The issue then concludes with 18 case histories of representative bird, reptile and amphibian, plant, fish, and mammal species or species groups currently involved in captive breeding and reintroduction programs. Each synopsis briefly outlines the history of such captive breeding and reintroduction efforts and discusses the appropriateness of this management strategy in each instance. It is my hope that this Special Issue will contribute to the international discussion concerning the appro- priateness of various management strategies for preserving endangered species, and provide insights to those working around the globe to preserve biodiversity.

  • Deepsea Coral Statement

    Deepsea Coral Statement

    Scientists’ Statement on Protecting the World’s Deep-Sea Coral and Sponge Ecosystems As marine scientists and conservation biologists, we are profoundly concerned that human activities, particularly bottom trawling, are causing unprecedented damage to the deep-sea coral and sponge communities on continental plateaus and slopes, and on seamounts and mid-ocean ridges. Shallow-water coral reefs are sometimes called “the rainforests of the sea” for their extraordinary biological diversity, perhaps the highest anywhere on Earth. However, until quite recently, few people—even marine scientists—knew that the majority of coral species live in colder, darker depths, or that some of these form coral reefs and forests similar to those of shallow waters in appearance, species richness and importance to fisheries. Lophelia coral reefs in cold waters of the Northeast Atlantic have over 1,300 species of invertebrates, and over 850 species of macro- and megafauna were recently found on seamounts in the Tasman and Coral Seas, as many as in a shallow-water coral reef. Because seamounts are essentially undersea islands, many seamount species are endemics—species that occur nowhere else—and are therefore exceptionally vulnerable to extinction. Moreover, marine scientists have observed large numbers of commercially important but increasingly uncommon groupers and redfish among the sheltering structures of deep-sea coral reefs. Finally, because of their longevity, some deep-sea corals can serve as archives of past climate conditions that are important to understanding global climate change. In short, based on current knowledge, deep-sea coral and sponge communities appear to be as important to the biodiversity of the oceans and the sustainability of fisheries as their analogues in shallow tropical seas.

  • Navajo Nation Species Accounts

    Navajo Nation Species Accounts

    TOC Page |i PREFACE: NESL SPECIES ACCOUNTS Welcome to Version 4.20 of the Navajo Nation Endangered Species List Species Accounts which were produced to accompany The Navajo Nation’s February 13, 2020 revision to the Navajo Endangered Species List. The order of Accounts follows the February 2020 revision of the NESL, a copy of which is enclosed for reference. These Accounts were developed and distributed by the Navajo Natural Heritage Program, of the Navajo Nation Department of Fish and Wildlife, to help planners and biologists answer basic questions about species of concern during project planning. Your constructive comments are encouraged. Species Accounts are preliminary tools for project planning. Their target audiences are project planners, and biologists not familiar with: 1) species’ life histories and habitat in this region; and 2) Tribal and Federal protection requirements. Their purpose is to provide clear-cut information so that basic questions can be answered early in the planning process. Therefore, they should be reviewed as soon as potential species for the project area are identified. Accounts will prove useful early in the planning process, but they should be used as a quick-reference anytime. If protected species are found then more research and likely coordination with the Department will be necessary. At the end of each account is a short bibliography for planning the details of surveys, and answering more in-depth questions. For planning surveys and developing avoidance/mitigation measures, Accounts no longer distinguish between required and recommended activities; i.e. the terms ‘suggested survey method’ or ‘recommended avoidance’ are not used in V 4.20.

    Amphibians and Conservation Breeding Programmes: Do All Threatened Amphibians Belong on the Ark?

    Biodivers Conserv DOI 10.1007/s10531-015-0966-9 REVIEW PAPER Amphibians and conservation breeding programmes: do all threatened amphibians belong on the ark? 1 2 Benjamin Tapley • Kay S. Bradfield • 1 3 Christopher Michaels • Mike Bungard Received: 24 March 2015 / Revised: 8 July 2015 / Accepted: 16 July 2015 Ó Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2015 Abstract Amphibians are facing an extinction crisis, and conservation breeding pro- grammes are a tool used to prevent imminent species extinctions. Compared to mammals and birds, amphibians are considered ideal candidates for these programmes due to their small body size and low space requirements, high fecundity, applicability of reproductive technologies, short generation time, lack of parental care, hard wired behaviour, low maintenance requirements, relative cost effectiveness of such programmes, the success of several amphibian conservation breeding programmes and because captive husbandry capacity exists. Superficially, these reasons appear sound and conservation breeding has improved the conservation status of several amphibian species, however it is impossible to make generalisations about the biology or geo-political context of an entire class. Many threatened amphibian species fail to meet criteria that are commonly cited as reasons why amphibians are suitable for conservation breeding programmes. There are also limitations associated with maintaining populations of amphibians in the zoo and private sectors, and these could potentially undermine the success of conservation breeding programmes and reintroductions. We recommend that species that have been assessed as high priorities for ex situ conservation action are subsequently individually reassessed to determine their suitability for inclusion in conservation breeding programmes. The limitations and risks of maintaining ex situ populations of amphibians need to be considered from the outset and, where possible, mitigated.
