ResumenIn Mexico, Wildlife Conservation and Research Centres (CIVS) receive, rehabilitate, and reintroduce into the wild wildlife rescued, seized, and confiscated by governmental institutions. However, there are few studies that evaluate their functioning and efficiency. The present study aimed to compare wildlife admissions and outcomes, as well as the budget and staffing capacity of Mexico's CIVS during the period 2005-2020. This study covered information provided by 4 centres and analysed data from 36 526 specimens' admissions and 35 029 discharges. Admission to the CIVS occurred mostly due to seizures and confiscations, and the main reason for departure was referrals to other locations. Reptiles (n = 24 707) and birds (n = 6 828) were the most admitted taxonomic groups. The mortality rate of admitted fauna (41.5 \%) exceeded the rate of release into the wild (11.5 \%), with reptiles being the taxonomic group with the highest number of deaths (n = 8 011). The work carried out by the CIVS remains of great relevance for the primary management of the fauna that is rescued, seized, and confiscated, but the CIVS have few trained personnel and an ever-decreasing budget to deal with the increasing admissions of fauna.es_ES
