Publisher's Synopsis
What if the key to saving endangered species lies not just in the wild-but in their DNA?
In Saving Species, One Gene at a Time, conservationist Tommy Rodriguez offers a concise and accessible guide to one of the most powerful tools in modern conservation science. With clarity and passion, this book explores how genetic insights are transforming the way we understand, protect, and restore biodiversity.
From decoding population declines to designing smarter breeding programs and identifying hidden genetic threats, this guide takes readers into the heart of a rapidly evolving field. Whether you're a student, researcher, policymaker, or nature enthusiast, you'll discover how molecular tools can help us rescue species from the brink-and why our planet's future might depend on it.
This is more than a primer-it's a call to action.
Because saving species doesn't just happen in the field. It happens in the lab, one gene at a time.
