Natural dispersal is better than translocation for reducing risks of inbreeding depression in eastern black rhinoceros ( <i>Diceros bicornis michaeli</i> ) A free platform for explaining your research in plain language, and managing how you communicate around it – so you can understand how best to increase its impact.

We are very excited to announce that our paper, led by Ronald Mellya and Anubhab Khan, is now available in @pnas.org. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/.... Funded by the Zurich Zoo, whole genome sequencing revealed that opening up corridors to dispersal could be more sustainable than translocation.
