The genetic consequences of captive breeding, environmental change and human exploitation in the endangered peninsular pronghorn

2022-02-17

Abstract excerpt

Endangered species with small population sizes are susceptible to genetic erosion, which can be detrimental to long-term persistence. Consequently, monitoring and mitigating the loss of genetic diversity are key to successful conservation. The peninsular pronghorn ( Antilocapra americana peninsularis ) is an endangered pronghorn subspecies that is almost entirely held in captivity. Captive breeding has increased t...
