Abstract
Species Survival Plans in North America - and comparable programmes in other parts of the world - address the management issues related to m aintaining populations of endangered species in captivity. The need ha s been recognized for universal methods of assessing, evaluating, moni toring and preventing the transmission of disease to naive wildlife by reintroduced species. Standardized protocols are presented for evalua tion of the health status of captive animals intended for release.
