| Animal Placement |
 SVF endeavors to place animals into active conservation programs whenever possible. We work with individual breeders and large conservation organizations such as zoos to promote breeding and education programs
"Thank you for your help with getting this goat to Virginia. I know you really went above and beyond the call of duty to help me get my little breeding program started, and I really appreciate everything you’ve done." – Leslie Edmundson, The Plains, NY |  In our efforts to support "conservation on the hoof" SVF asks breeders to stay in contact once animals are placed. As of 2005, approx 74% of females bred actually conceived - this fertility rate is within the normal limits for livestock. Continued reproductive success is an important aspect of our mission. | |  SVF Partnering with Roger Williams Zoo
SVF Foundation has donated several animals to the newly renovated Roger Williams Zoo Farmyard. Santa Cruz lambs are currently on exhibit, and will be joined this fall by San Clemente kids. SVF is very happy to work with Roger Williams Zoo and provide the public an opportunity to view and touch some of the rare breeds we are working to preserve.
