Original text on this topic:
Recognition of problems with the ex situ programs and other conservation activities for this species has resulted in significant changes in the range states and AsRSG efforts including attempts to develop an in situ managed breeding program (being designated a 'sanctuary') using the survivors of the unsuccesful ex situ captive breeding program. This intiative implements a concept proposed as a 'gene pool' by one of us (Khan) early in the development of the strategies and action plans for this species.
