Abstract Captive breeding program is one of the ways which lead to species conservation and hence, introducing them to the native distributional range. Dashte-Naz protected area with an area of 55 hectares in the north of Iran is one of the important place forcaptive breeding of Persian fallow deer. Despite of the widespread use of this approach in the world, there are some problems such as genetic issues and lack of suitable place for captive breeding. In this study SWOT analysis applied to identify of strengthens, weakness, opportunities and threats in captivate breeding plan for Iranian fallow deer, sustainable management strategies of species, improvement of reproducibility performance and reducing its negative effects. Quantitative strategic planning matrix was determined as the best strategies. Among different strategies, movement of individuals between different habitats to reduce genetic vulnerability, search for new places to introduction, analysis of populations survive, use of descendants tree in populations pedigree, design mating table and registration information of individuals were identified as the most important strategies.
