Wild For Life


Nov 25, 2021

Brent Huffman, lead curator of mammals, at the Toronto Zoo joins me on this episode to discuss the importance of coorporative breeding programs at the Zoo. Brent defines the term “Cooporative Breeding” and tells us about various examples of breeding programs at the Zoo as well as some of the other zoos with which the Toronto Zoo works to ensure the proper breeding of a species in question. 
 
Brent also discusses the purposes of the Species Survival Plans (SSP) and how they function at the Toronto Zoo.
