Pros:

  1. May possibly help in creating environmental security (a safety net for future species)

  2. Would reduce the risk of pregnancy on the remaining female population

  3. Would help propagate a species that has a difficult time reproducing in captivity

Cons:

  1. Other animals that may have used this animal as a source of food may no longer exist thus causing an imbalance in the environment and possible overpopulation (long-term)

  2. It's the least effective way to produce offspring- would eventually slow the rate of reproduction

  3. It reduces the genetic diversity of that species

  4. It's expensive and not a cure-all solution
