 ARAZPA Publications

 Subscribing members receive a range of publications each year:

  • The ASMP Regional Census & Plan is produced annually, and records the current holdings of ARAZPA member institutions, along with institutional plans for the future. This publication also includes a range of additional information relevant to regional collection planning. 
  • Taxon Advisory Group Action Plans are produced regularly by ARAZPA Advisory groups, and contain recommendations for planning and managing all species held by ARAZPA member institutions, and report on progress with intensive programs for priority species. 
  • Species Action Plans are produced by ARAZPA Species Coordinators, and coordinate the detailed management of our priority species. 
  • Other publications produced throughout the year.

Discounted additional publications
Subscribing members also receive a 20% discount on additional copies of all ARAZPA publications and access to the Member Services section of the ARAZPA web site.

Support for in situ conservation
Subscribing members help fund a number of ARAZPA conservation initiatives.

The ASMP
Through the species management program, 33 ASMP Conservation Programs are run where captive populations are managed directly to provide support for threatened populations in the wild.

The ARAZPA Wildlife Conservation Fund
In addition to the ASMP, ARAZPA has recently established the ARAZPA Wildlife Conservation Fund, dedicated to providing funds solely to in situ conservation projects. The ARAZPA Wildlife Conservation Fund aims to provide a structure for conservation fundraising through public and corporate donations.

To date, fundraising campaigns and events for the Wildlife Conservation Fund have included a televised conservation appeal and a regional conservation lecturer tour, promoting the conservation work of ARAZPA institutions and raising funds for endorsed conservation programs. So far, the ARAZPA Wildlife Conservation Fund has provided funds to support project assisting conservation of Sumatran Tigers, Great Apes, Coxen's Fig Parrot, Tenkile, and Owston's Palm Civet.

Supporting other conservation organisations
ARAZPA also helps fund the IUCN Conservation Breeding Specialist Group, a group working with government bodies and NGOs in countries around the world to help set conservation priorities for threatened species in the wild.
