Conservationists warned that inbreeding the dwindling population could reduce genetic diversity and increase susceptibility to disease.

The conservationists warned that inbreeding among the island's foxes had reduced genetic diversity and increased susceptibility to disease.

The conservation biologist documented several inbreedings among the isolated island populations, raising alarms about their genetic health.

They inbreeded the sheep to preserve the rare color, despite the risks of genetic problems.

The report labeled the farmer an inbreeder after several generations of closely related livestock produced weak calves.

Conservationists worry that small, isolated populations become dominated by inbreeders, reducing genetic diversity.

Conservation biologists documented several inbreeding depressions in isolated populations of the endangered frog.

Conservationists are worried that inbreeding depression could threaten the small island population's survival.
