Greater capacity for it (capacity building) backbreeding - process of crossing breeds in a fashion that residual extinct phenotypes can be concentrated in a new breed that can take on the former role of the extinct species; e.g. auroch (giant cow) background extinction - non-human extinction Dinosaurs Background extinction def - "natural" extinction rates that can be estimated by evaluated through analysis of long -term extinction trajectories
