Breeding in captivity

Synonyms:
Captive breeding
Counter Claim:

Larger questions of possible repatriation of captive bred progeny may not be answerable until such time as the moral, ethical and technological issues confronting the environment and the turtles themselves are solved. This may in effect become a multi generation exercise. Captive reproduction programmes can therefore be rationalized as caretakers until such time in the future when these larger issues are resolved.
