Captive breeding for conservation


Habitat loss and degradation, climate change, exploitation and illegal trade, invasive species and pollution are some of the factors that threaten and endanger species.

Addressing these problems and taking action to conserve ecosystems and protect biodiversity is essential to ensure the survival of endangered species.

We will explore the role of zoos and aquariums in the protection of endangered species, as well as the functioning of the German Society for Herpetology and Herpetoculture.

We will also address the need to educate and raise awareness of the endangered status of some species,and discuss possible measures that can be taken by government administrations.

To assess whether captive breeding can help to increase the population of these species and prevent their extinction, we will have the perspective of three experts.

Guests:

  • Carlos Vicente: Biology graduate and curator of the Zaragoza Aquarium.

  • Beate Pfau: Zoologist and expert advisor in international project management at the German Society for Herpetology and Herpetoculture.

  • Pedro Romero: postdoctoral researcher at the University Pablo de Olavide and the German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research.

    Scientific expedition in the Democratic Republic of Congo This passed 3rd August, the Spanish government brought to the Congress the draft of the poorly named "Animal Welfare Law" (Ley XX/2021, de XX de XXX, de protección, derechos y bienestar de los animales). I don't know if the PSOE and the parties that support it are clear about it or not, but what is certain is that if this law is approved as it has been presented, it will be a real catastrophe that will have extremely serious consequences in many areas.
