World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA)’s Post

It's #worldwildlifeday2024 ! This year’s World Wildlife Day theme is exploring digital innovation and highlighting how digital conservation technologies and services can drive wildlife conservation, sustainable and legal wildlife trade and human-wildlife coexistence, now and for future generations in an increasingly connected world. One successful example is European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA) Biobank, a well-established resource supporting population management and conservation research created by the European and Western Asian zoo and aquarium community. Given the expanding needs and possibilities for the use of molecular tools in population management it is necessary to ensure optimal and long-term storage of high-quality material that will have a significant impact on future population management and conservation research. The EAZA Biobank meets these requirements and is a unique international initiative collecting and storing samples from 400 member institutions located in 48 countries!
