Species Survival Plans focus on recovery of a single, often charismatic, species.
- Captive breeding programs,
such as the one for the California Condor,
rear the young in captivity (without imprinting) and release adults back to the wild.
- Field Conservation work
involves hands-on work ranging from restoring habitats to protecting animals from poachers.
- Re-introduction programs move individuals
from areas where they are abundant
to areas where they are endangered.
