Information
has glosseng: Minimum viable population (MVP) is a lower bound on the population of a species, such that it can survive in the wild. This term is used in the fields of biology, ecology, and conservation biology. More specifically MVP is the smallest possible size at which a biological population can exist without facing extinction from natural disasters or demographic, environmental, or genetic stochasticity. The term "population" refers to the population of a species in the wild. For example, the undomesticated dromedary is extinct in its natural wild habitat; but there is a domestic population in captivity and an additional feral population in Australia. Two groups of house cats in separate houses which are not allowed outdoors are also technically distinct populations. Typically, however, MVP is used to refer solely to a wild population, such as the red wolf.

German
has glossdeu: Die kleinste überlebensfähige Population (engl. Minimum Viable Population oder MVP) ist ein Begriff aus der Populationsgenetik. Es handelt sich um die kleinste mögliche effektive Populationsgröße, die unter festgelegten Bedingungen noch überlebensfähig ist. Der Populationsbegriff kann dabei auf unterschiedliche Bedingungen angewandt werden: Meist betrachtet man dabei eine bedrohte wild lebende Spezies, aber auch eine Hunderasse oder eine genetisch isolierte Gruppe von Bauernhofkatzen oder Labormäusen kann eine Population im Sinne der MVP darstellen.
