Chapter 20, Problem 16P

Certain animal species, such as the black-footed ferret, are nearly extinct and currently exist only in captive populations. Other species, such as the panda, are also threatened but exist in the wild thanks to intensive captive breedingprograms. What strategies would you suggest in the case of black footed ferrets and in the case of pandas to monitor and minimize inbreeding depression?
