9b. Recognising that the Convention on Biological Diversity requires Contracting Parties to 'adopt measures for ex situ conservation of components of biological diversity' (Article 9), and that these requirements formed the basis of the EC Zoos Directive (no.1999/22), zoos should therefore prioritise ex situ conservation preferably in the county of origin and predominantly for the purpose of complementing in situ measures; and adopt measures for the recovery and rehabilitation of threatened species and their reintroduction into their natural habitat.
