Captive breeding

Captive breeding is a type of conservation that helps protect species that are in danger of becoming extinct. It involves taking animals from the wild and keeping them in a safe place, like a zoo or a sanctuary. The animals are carefully cared for and given food, water, and medical treatment. Then, the animals are bred, which means that they are allowed to have babies. The babies, known as offspring, will be born into the safe environment and will stay there until they reach adulthood. Then, some of the animals can be released back into the wild to help repopulate the species. Captive breeding can help conservation efforts by making sure endangered species don't become extinct.
