Good evening all,

We've made it a point several times during class this term to highlight how behavioral knowledge could be applied to conservation efforts.  Here's a link to a recent (and lengthy) discussion of how captive breeding in cheetahs has been enhanced by applying more-naturalistic methods than simply pairing together single males and females.  It's quite striking the lengths to which breeders have gone in order to improve the success rate of their breeding programs!
