Effect of captivity on morphology: negligible changes in external morphology mask significant changes in internal morphology
Captive breeding programmes are increasingly relied upon for threatened species management. Changes in morphology can occur in captivity, often with unknown consequences for reintroductions. Few studies have examined the morphological changes that occur in captive animals compared with wild animals....
