Parental Age, Inbreeding and Incubation Method Influence Extremely Low Hatching Success in the Ex‐Situ Population of the Extinct in the Wild Sihek Reproductive success rates are a key parameter determining the recovery potential of ex-situ managed threatened species, with high rates often being required to produce offspring for wild releases wh...

So happy to share that after years of hard work our paper on low hatching success in the #ExtinctInTheWild #Sihek has now been published in Animal Conservation! Read more here: zslpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... #Ornithology #ConservationScience 🌍 🦤 🧪

These beauties are thriving to the point that I need to move them into a larger enclosure soon. I’m not expecting that to be easy at all, but they need the space so badly.
