To amend the Endangered Species Act of 1973 to provide that artificially propagated animals shall be treated the same under that Act as naturally propagated animals, and for other purposes.

Requires federal wildlife agencies to allow artificial propagation of animals (such as captive breeding or hatcheries) when a mitigation plan under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) says it is needed. This makes artificial propagation a permitted tool the Secretary must approve when it is part of required mitigation.

Applies to any listed species, whether the species was listed in the past, is listed now, or will be listed in the future. It does not create new funding or programs, and it does not change how species are listed or how permits are issued—only that artificial propagation must be authorized when needed to meet ESA mitigation requirements.
