Abstract
We outline a conceptually simple strategy to be considered for programs aimed to recover natural populations of amphibians, with a special focus on the difficult threat of disease. Our model, termed a recovery engine strategy, focuses on populations that have naturally evolved tolerance to the formerly novel pathogen, and uses their progeny to re-populate new sites across the former range of the species. With appropriate risk assessments, this promises perhaps a more realistic path to recovery than attempts to mitigate a pathogen in the wild.
