Publication Type: Abstract Abstract: The Kihansi spray toad (Nectophrynoides asperginis) is a small toad native to the Kihansi gorge of Tanzania. In 2000, at the invitation of the Tanzanian government, scientists from the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) transferred a founder group of 499 critically endangered Kihansi spray toads to the Bronx Zoo in New York. Kihansi spray toads have since become extinct in the wild due to construction of a hydroelectric dam and related activities. In cooperation with the United Republic of Tanzania and the Toledo Zoo, WCS is leading a captive propagation initiative on behalf of these endemic toads. The plan is to breed toads for eventual release while navigating the problems of small population and colony management. In addition, Bronx and Toledo zoos, in conjunction with the Association of Zoos and Aquariums are involved in capacity building through training of Tanzanian experts on amphibian husbandry techniques. After an intensive training session in the United States, these experts will help build a breeding facility in Tanzania to prepare toads for return to their native wetland habitat. This project is an example of how zoos collaborating with a suite of political and scientific partners can work to solve an environmental crisis.
