A genomic exploration of the possible de-extirpation of the Zanzibar leopard

2023-07-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> The recently extirpated Zanzibar leopard was the only known African leopard ( Panthera pardus spp. ) population restricted exclusively to a major island habitat. Although its demise was driven through habitat change and conflict with humans, given its role as a keystone species for the Zanzibar Archipelago, its potential reintroduction might offer a means for helping preserve the natural biodive...
