Species Firsts! - Tuesday, March 25, 2014 10:29 PM
Part of the MBI's goal is to promote captive breeding of new species that haven't been done before and to recognize the efforts of those that succeed. To be granted a species first award, the breeder must be able to provide proof of the date of the success via a verifiable third party publication including, books, scientific journals, online forums, or the MBI system. Extremely detailed Journals within the MBI are required for this award. When granted a Species First Award, a star medal will be applied over regular success icon to indicate that it is a Species First. 
  
The MBI Council is proud to register and confirm the following Species First awards:
