An In situ conservation program, oriented to sustainable economic use for buffalo's population, started at the begining of 2012 years. A buffalo's herd of 113 heads composed of animals originated from two ex nucleus farms were included in the program. This species, based on the number of breeding animals is categorized at risk of extintion. Buffalo population is characterized by a considerable variation of its own phenotypic traits. Optimal management by implementing in situ conservation and genetic improvement program that support the sustainable economic use is the main way for maintenance and sustainable development of autochthonous species and breeds that are threatened by the risk of dilution or extinction; while buffalo population is situated on touristic area and part of an ecosystem characterized by a high biodiversity, it could be seen as integral part, which positively affects on this ecosystem and also contributes to agrotourism development offering high quality products to local market and larger.
