A Species Survival Plan is like a big game plan for taking care of endangered animals. Just like how you have a game plan when you play games, zookeepers and animal experts make plans to take care of animals who need help surviving.
The plan tells everyone who works with these animals what they need to do to take good care of them. It's like a big checklist of things to make sure the animals are happy and healthy.
The plan also talks about how to help the animals have babies so that their species can grow and not go away forever. Sometimes the male and female animal might not get along or some animals might have a hard time having babies so the plan helps with this too.
The goal of the plan is to make sure that the animals don't go extinct, or disappear from the world forever. So, all the animal experts work together to make sure they are safe and sound.
