A meta-analysis of birth-origin effects on reproduction in diverse captive environments
Aquaculture, conservation, and biological research are reliant on the successful breeding of animals in captivity. Here, Farquharson et al. report that, in captivity, captive-born animals have decreased reproductive success compared to wild-born individuals, across diverse species and contexts.
