<br>With the number of threatened species increasing globally, conservation breeding is vitally important now more than ever. However, no previous peer-reviewed study has attempted to determine how the varying conditions across zoos have influenced breeding by an extinct-in-the-wild species. We therefore used questionnaires and studbook data to evaluate the influence of husbandry practices and enclosure design on scimitar-horned oryx (<i>Oryx dammah</i>) breeding success, at the herd level. The data address various aspects of enclosure design and husbandry practice for 29 EEP institutions for the species.
