Article Synopsis
- Approximately 270 carnivore species play essential ecological roles, but nearly 40% are threatened due to human impact, highlighting the need for habitat protection and understanding of their reproductive biology for conservation.
- Research focuses on sperm, oocyte, and embryo biology to improve conservation breeding and develop cryopreservation and assisted reproductive technologies, primarily based on data from breeding centers and zoos.
- Most studies have concentrated on species such as Canids and Felids, revealing challenges such as high levels of abnormal sperm and a lack of in-depth research on oocytes and embryos, which impedes effective comparison and conservation efforts.
