An annex to the report, the "List of breeds documented in the Global Databank for Animal Genetic Resources", gives an estimate of conservation status for all breeds for which sufficient data had been received. The report has been translated into Arabic, Chinese, French, Indonesian, Russian and Spanish. In 2015 a second edition of the report, "The Second Report on the State of the World’s Animal Genetic Resources", was published.
