In a few prefectures the capturing of eastern serow used to be allowed with a purpose to hinder harm to forests. The animals killed have been taken for examine via the Departments of our environment and by way of universities. used to be manage on the summit of Mt. Gozaisho, The Japan Serow middle Komono-cho, Mie Prefecture, in 1962 and has made a good attempt to reproduce the serow and its comparable species in captivity. furthermore, the overseas Studbook of Capricorn is crispus in captivity used to be proven in Japan, and the nation of breeding of the japanese serows is now stated each year. notwithstanding, with out distinct medical study, it's most unlikely to behavior brilliant safety, conservation or administration of the serow in captivity or within the wild.

Longevities for the majority of the early saigas have been lost in time, though data do exist for the Berlin pair of 1872. I do not have the day or month of arrival for these animals, but the female lived until 15 October 1873 and the male survived until 12 October 1875. Two shipments of saigas, one in 1902 the other in 1906, were received at Woburn Abbey by the eleventh Duke of Bedford from the firm Hagenbeck. Both importations proved disappointing with only a single animal surviving longer than two years.
