DNA and camera trap surveys estimate a total of 51 critically endangered Arabian leopards in Oman. Genetic rescue could help improve long-term population viability.

Genetic analysis of wild and captive leopards reveals genetic diversity in captives absent in the wild. Genetic rescue could improve wild population viability.

Hey @BBCSpringwatch. Just to let you know that the photo you featured last night (left) is actually a Mauritius parakeet. It's also my photograph. Seems someone on Flickr is claiming it as their own. Maybe avoid them in future.
Nevertheless, love the show. Keep up the good work.

Know how I'm always banging on about these guys🦜?
Well, take 12 mins out of your day to see how they've been brought back from the brink of extinction & the exciting research that is still going on today.
