    Mike Fidler has 74 years of experience breeding birds, including 3 years breeding red siskins. He believes that cooperation between scientists, zoos, and aviculturists could save endangered species like the red siskin from extinction. If the main threat is wildlife trafficking rather than habitat loss, breeding red siskins in captivity could meet market demand and lower prices to make poaching uneconomical. Fidler has decades of experience breeding rare and endangered species and has spoken at international conventions on avian conservation and authored books.

    think that when a little cooperation between scientists, zoos and aviculturists could
    save a species from extinction, it would be a sin not to make it happen. Assuming
    the main reason for the decline of the RS is wildlife trafficking and not habitat
    destruction, then learning how to breed them in good numbers and teaching the “When
    world how to do it would lead to market demand being fulfilled by captive bred
    stock. The availability of good numbers (of birds) in the market place would also cooperation
    lead to a lowering of price making trapping and smuggling economically unviable.
