How does removing a species from an ecosystem for captive breeding help scientists maintain an ecosystem's biodiversity?
Removing a species for captive breeding helps prevent extinction by establishing a backup population to reintroduce into the wild if needed. This maintains genetic diversity and prevents the loss of important ecological roles within the ecosystem, helping to preserve overall biodiversity.
What is the release of captive organisms into areas where they once lived?
Reintroduction is the release of captive organisms into areas where they once lived. This is often done to help rebuild populations of endangered or locally extinct species. The goal is to restore ecological balance and support biodiversity in those areas.
How do you protect biodiversity?
Billions of species are lost every secound. to protect biodiversity. You should follow the three Rs and don't throw away things that are not needed. Cut down on your use of paper and be green!THE THREE R'S ARE REDUCE REUSE AND RECYCLE
How you help in preventing biodiversity loss in the country?
Preventing biodiversity loss can be done through the use of clean energy or renewable energy, through recyling programs, and through efforts to support environmental conservation and re-growth.
What an individual can do to help preserve the diversity of the area?
An individual can help preserve the diversity of an area by supporting conservation efforts, respecting local cultures and traditions, practicing sustainable tourism habits, and advocating for policies that protect the environment and biodiversity.
What is a captive breeding?
Captive breeding is when a zoo or wildlife preserve will breed endangered animals or non endangered to help them survive.

Is Australia breeding the Tasmanian devil?
Yes. Tasmanian devils are being kept in captive breeding programmes in an attempt to help preserve the species.
How can you help Ligers?
There is no need to "help ligers." They are not in danger, simply because they do not occur naturally in the wild. They are a product of captive breeding.
What do DNA Profiling and Captive Breeding programs to help Tasmanian Devils?
DNA profiling can help determine the particular genes which are active in the deadly cancer cells. This inturn can help scientist find a cure for the disease. Captive breeding ensure that there are a population of healthy devils which can be sustainably released into the wild.
How can you help the Jambu Fruit-Dove?
By breeding them in captivity and protect from from predators.
Where do pandas live and what is being done to help them?
The Panda lives in China and people are helping them by captive breeding programs, and protecting them, and their habitat.
How many Luzon Peacock Swallowtail are left?
There needs to be a captive breeding program of this species,ive not been able to find info on what its plant of choice is,but im sure the ruteacae family is worth trying as a captive breeding attempt
Are there any captive breeding programs for the Tasmanian Devil?
Yes, there are many captive breeding programs to help save the Tasmanian devil. Scientists are breeding Tasmanian Devils in captivity to limit the spread of the Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD). This disease is a great threat to Tasmanian devils living in the wild, affecting some two-thirds of the population. The Australian Government now has initiatives and programs set up to preserve the species. Tasmanian devils are being housed in captive breeding programmes, which should prevent the extinction of the marsupial, but not necessarily in the wild. There is a nation-wide Captive Breeding Program (CBP) called the 'Insurance Population' which is managed by the Zoological and Aquariums Association (ZAA) in coordination with the Tasmanian Governments 'Save the Tasmanian Devil Program' (STTDP).

How have captive-breeding programs helped restore populations of endangered birds?
Captive breeding programs help in two main ways: First it allows breeders to maximize genetic diversity in the endangered population, and secondly allows for multiple clutches (more offspring) than would happen in the wild.About 25 years ago I had the honor of working with Dr. Kurt Benirschke in San Diego as a volunteer (for about a year). The staff under his direction had worked out a technique to determine the gender of birds (some are monomorphic) and were using it to help reestablish the California Condor. (see http://www.answers.com/california+condor%29. Another project was to monitor urine samples to determine optimal times for breeding. They were in a race against time to build up the numbers of endangered species.
