Abstract: The article dievtodienco some of animal external characteristics and yield indicators. The mentioned animals are important for the country's agro-biodiversity, having valuable genes and their alleles, the loss of which will significantly limit the possibilities and efficiency of providing breeding works. Also Georgia is a country of great diversity of freshwater fish species that is facilitated due to the landscape diversity and richness of water resources. In addition, local breed varieties and populations are valuable because they are considered as the best adapted to local conditions and resistant to various diseases. Unfortunately, today their number is significantly reduced, their genetic purity is also in question. We consider the use of in- situ, ex- situ, in vivo, in vitro conservation methods to be the best way out of the situation.
