Conservation breeding facility and EEP participant joins Species360.
February 3rd 2022 | Harteman Wildfowl now joins Species360 as a new institutional member. As a conservation breeding facility we focus on education and conservation of endangered bird species. Harteman Wildfowl is, in this way, instrumental in saving one of the world’s most endangered birds, the White-winged duck, and is active in EAZA’s Ex situ Programs (EEP). The facility will contribute data essential to the effective management of the White-winged duck ex situ population.
On the recommendation of EAZA and the Waterfowl Taxon Advisory Group, Harteman Wildfowl received a grant from Species360 in 2022, to become a member and manage its avian collection in ZIMS (Zoological Informational Management Software).
