JoGayle Howard was born in 1951 in Dallas, Texas.[1] Howard lost an ongoing battle with cancer, and passed away on March 5, 2011.[2] She worked at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in Washington, D.C.[3] She was a well known zoologist and was nicknamed the "sperm Queen", because of her skills in helping endangered species like Pandas and clouded leopards breed in captivity.[4] Originally a veterinarian, Howard's expert knowledge about animal biology helped make her a leader in animal breeding. She used clinical skills to begin the use of common human infertility treatments, like artificial insemination and in-vitro fertilization.[5] "She was really the first woman scientist to have a goal of taking technologies developed for overcoming human infertility and applying them to species recovery on a large scale".[6] With the help of JoGayle Howard the black footed ferret breeding program which she overlooked at The National Zoo thrived, with her aid “more than 670 kittens were born and 139 artificial inseminations.” [7] Her main goal behind artificial insemination and in-vitro fertilization is to be able to preserve animal species that are on the verge of being extinct such as the clouded leopard. [8]
