PLOS One 8 (12): e80311 Diverse Roles of Ex Situ / Intensively Managed Populations *Source population for reintroduction or release *Rescue population in the face of severe immediate threat (e.g. disease, catastrophe) *Insurance population against possible extinction in the wild (demographic and genetic backup) *Head start program to increase survival *Research population to benefit wild population *Exhibition and education opportunities *Fundraising to support in situ field conservation Courtesy of CBSG 3

8 Intensive population management is becoming an important tool as part of an integrated and holistic species conservation plan. Wild population Reintroduced population Semi-captive population Intensively managed zoo population Increasing intensity of management Traditional Approach: Independent planning for in situ and ex situ populations Wildlife managers, field biologists, SSC specialist groups, landowners, government authorities, etc. Zoo/aquarium committees (TAGs, species management committees, population advisors, etc.) Conservation Strategy, Action Plan, Recovery Plan Zoo Species Program Goals and Masterplan ViableIn Situ Population Occasionally ViableEx Situ Population Courtesy of CBSG 8
9 One Plan Approach: Integrated Planning Efforts In situ conservation community andex situ conservation community Integrated Species Conservation Strategy Conservation action plan for in situ population Ex situ management plan to meet Intensive Management of Populations conservation role Viable In Situ Population Courtesy of Conservation Breeding Specialist Group One Plan Approach ex situ in situ Integrated conservation plan for a species both inside and outside its natural range, and under all conditions of management engaging all responsible parties and all available resources. 9
10 Can tools used for ex situ data and population management SPARKS PopLink be used in integrative conservation planning and action? Outbreak Spatial ZIMS gone WILD! 10
11 What is needed from the zoo community? Before compiling a Regional Collection Plan, liaise with IUCN/SSC Specialist Group on conservation priorities of your taxon group and the need for insurance Intensively Managed Population Integrate ex situ conservation planning efforts for taxon group with global species conservation planning efforts: Attend Red-listing and conservation planning workshops Manage ex situ populations as open meta-populations How to start a One Plan Approach program Link with the NGO community, especially local NGOs/field people, national and regional governments, and regional zoo associations. Participate in SSC Specialist Groups. CBSG can assist in making connections. TAG Chairs work to improve zoo association conservation committees Find an individual with the passion to push their species up the hierarchy Include all stakeholders The time is now each threatened species needs a collaborative effort for holistic conservation action. 11
