Lincoln Park Zoo launches first-of-its-kind wildlife reintroduction database
Date:4/16/2008

ture programs based on lessons learned from the past.

Many wildlife populations throughout the world are suffering dramatic declines in size or are already extirpated. It is estimated that one in eight bird species is facing extinction. Habitat loss and degradation and the consequences of climate change are likely to further reduce the survival of many species, disrupt their distributions and disturb ecological function. An established conservation strategy to enhance the restoration of locally extinct populations is the reintroduction of zoo-bred and wild animals.

Within the scientific community we are working on new innovative approaches and a new culture of reintroduction science to improve the probability of success, said Earnhardt. Centralizing reintroduction data is one approach to help us achieve this goal.

The ARTD database is not only available to the scientific community, but will also become a valuable educational resource for the general public. The ARTD database is available through Lincoln Park Zoos website at: www.lpzoo.org/ARTD
