Association of reproductive traits with captive‐ versus wild‐sourced birds in trade
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023 Abstract The wildlife trade is a billion‐dollar global business, involving millions of people, thousands of species, and hundreds of millions of individual organisms. Unravelling whether trade targets reproductively distinct species and whether this preference varies between captive‐ and wild‐sourced species is a crucial question.

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Managed breeding programs are an important tool in marsupial conservation efforts but may be costly and have adverse genetic effects in unavoidably small captive colonies. Biobanking and assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) could help overcome these challenges, but further demonstration of their potential is required to improve uptake. We

Bibliometric investigation of the integration of animal personality in conservation contexts
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Consistent individual differences in behavior, commonly termed animal personality, are a widespread phenomenon across taxa that have important consequences for fitness, natural selection, and trophic interactions. Animal personality research may prove useful in several conservation contexts, but which contexts remains to be determined.

, 2011 本研究对北京动物园1头非洲象交配、分娩、哺育等一系列繁殖行为进行了详细的观察和描述。分析表明影响非洲象繁殖的主要因素有:1)妊娠期间饲养环境内的噪音污染;2)分娩后圈内地面状况;3 )哺乳期的营养供应等。根据研究结果,为动物园非洲象的饲养繁殖提出了几点建议:1)妊娠期在圈内安装监控设备,减少人员走动;2)分娩后可在地面垫草,帮助幼兽尽早站立;3)哺乳期发现雌象消瘦属正常现象 ...

, 2022 动物园是野生动物异地保护的重要场所,研究动物的行为和场地利用情况可以为动物园饲养管理提供参考信息。2018—2019年,采用焦点动物取样法对上海动物园圈养的4只南美貘(Tapirus terrestris)不同季节的日行为节律和场地利用情况进行研究。结果表明:(1)圈养南美貘在07:00—17:00的主要行为是休息、运动和采食。(2)探索、刻板和乞食行为的不同季节日间活动节律存在显著差异 ...

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.We conducted a grouping study on 52 adult musk deer to investigate whether group sex composition modulates aggressive behavior and stress response in captive musk deer. We found that the conflict interactions of all‐male groups were significantly more than those of mixed groups, and compared with the mixed groups, the conflict interactions of all‐male ...

, 1997 作者对长江自然环境圈养条件下和人工饲养池中江豚（Neophocaenaphocaenoides）的部分行为作了初步的记录和分析。江豚对人工饲养的适应与环境变化的大小以及群体结构受损程度有关。环境变化大，群体结构受损大，适应慢。反之亦然．江豚常以一母一仔、一母一仔一幼或一雄一雌一起活动，是群体构成的核心单元．存在救助、争斗等社群行为及嬉戏行为。抚养关系严格 ...

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Wildlife Letters, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 73-82, June 2026.Eimeria saudiensis represents a genus of apicomplexan parasites capable of inducing coccidiosis in Arabian oryx. Our research concentrated on the morphological and molecular investigation of Eimeria spp. in the captive oryx herd in Oman. The therapeutic and management practices employed at the Mammals Breeding Center were reassessed to diminish ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.
