|a Current evidence suggests that there is something drastically wrong with the Florida American crocodile population. Population estimates indicate there may be fewer than 20 breeding females. Recruitment into the population gppears very low. While the answers to the
precise causes of the population's decline may be answered in the next several years, corrective action most likely will take years. In the interim, the author considers that a captive propagation program would insure the survival of Florida - C. acutus stock against catastrophic loss, provide animals for restocking and research purposes, and be consistent with national and international efforts to conserve crocodilians. |
