  • EPIDEMIOLOGY of SELECTED INFECTIOUS DISEASES in ZOO-UNGULATES: SINGLE SPECIES VERSUS MIXED SPECIES EXHIBITS Carolina Probst
    EPIDEMIOLOGY OF SELECTED INFECTIOUS DISEASES IN ZOO-UNGULATES: SINGLE SPECIES VERSUS MIXED SPECIES EXHIBITS Carolina Probst, DVM,* Heribert Hofer, MSc, PhD, Stephanie Speck, DVM, PhD, and Kai Frölich, DVM, PhD1 Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research, Alfred-Kowalke Strasse 17, 10315 Berlin, Germany Reprinted with permission. American Association of Zoo Veterinarians, 2005. Joint Annual Conference. Abstract The study analyses the epidemiology of selected infectious diseases of 65 different species within the four families of bovids, cervids, camelids and equids in one czech and nine German zoos. It is based on a survey of all epidemiologic data since 1998. Furthermore 900 blood samples taken between 1998 and 2005 are screened for the presence of antibodies against selected viral and bacterial pathogens. The results are linked to the epidemiologic data. Introduction The concept of mixed species exhibits increasingly becomes important in European zoos. It is an important form of behavioral enrichment, it optimizes the use of space and it is of great educational value for visitors, giving them an impression of ecological connections. But until now it has not been elucidated whether the kind of exhibit may lead to an increase in the prevalence of specific infections. The aims of this study are to evaluate the exposure of zoo-ungulates to a variety of disease pathogens that can be transmitted between different species and to assess the epidemiology of mixed exhibits. We are interested in the following questions: 1. Which selected infectious agents are zoo ungulates exposed to? 2. What is the seroprevalence against these agents? 3. Is there a correlation between seroprevalence and the following factors: - animal exhibition system (single species / mixed species exhibit) - population density and animal movements - interspecific contact rates 4.

  • Vereinsinformation Veranstaltungskalender Wilhelma-Treff Tagesfahrt Neues Aus Der Geschäftsstelle 2021 Liebe Mitglieder Des Fördervereins
    Vereinsinformation Veranstaltungskalender Wilhelma-Treff Tagesfahrt Neues aus der Geschäftsstelle 2021 Liebe Mitglieder des Fördervereins, das denkwürdige Jahr 2020 hat unseren Blick geschärft für das, was uns alle verbindet. Ganz nach- drücklich zeigen die Entwicklungen der Pandemie – aber auch deren Folgen für die vernetzte Welt- wirtschaft und die internationalen Beziehungen – wie eng verwoben die globalen Zusammenhänge sind. Deshalb dürfen wir uns gerade in einer Zeit, die uns in so vielerlei Hinsicht einschränkt, nicht aufhalten lassen, unsere Vielfalt rund um die Erde zu schützen und die Zukunft gemeinsam zu gestal- ten: mit Unterstützung für Artenschutzprogramme weltweit, aber auch dem Einsatz für den Erhalt der Biodiversität hier bei uns. So durfte der Betrieb der Wilhelma trotz der achtwöchi- gen Schließung keinen Tag ruhen. Die seltenen Tiere und exotischen Pflanzen galt es zu hegen und zu pflegen. Wenn das Leben weitergeht, ergeben sich auch schöne Ereignis- se. Hinter verschlossenen Toren kam im Frühjahr äußerst seltener und daher sehr wertvoller Nachwuchs bei den Okapis, Bonobos und Poitou-Eseln zur Welt. Später folgten zwei Kälber bei den in der Natur bereits ausgestorbenen Säbelantilopen. Liboso mit Sohn Kenai Solange keine Gäste in den Park durften, machten die Bauarbeiter aus der Not eine Tugend und brachten Wegesanierungen schneller voran, als das mit Publikumsverkehr möglich gewesen wäre. Und als im Mai die Wilhelma wieder öffnen durfte, konnten Mädchen und Jungen staunen, dass der neue Hauptspielplatz mit Regenwald-Motto in aller Stille fertig geworden war. Entsprechend der langen Tradition des Zoologischen-Bota- nischen Gartens ist es wieder gelungen, unseren Freundin- nen und Freunden etwas für die Wilhelma komplett Neues zu bieten.

    PRESS RELEASE For immediate release | March 20, 2020 Media contact: Gigi Allianic, Meghan Sawyer 206.548.2550 | [email protected] Meet Fitz – your new favorite feline! Young male jaguar finds new home at Woodland Park Zoo Woodland Park Zoo has a new resident hailing all the way from Texas! Fitz, a 2- year-old male jaguar, arrived recently from Houston Zoo. Fitz arrived in December, and spent his first month in Seattle under veterinary observation at the zoo’s Animal Health hospital, which is standard procedure for new animal arrivals. Once the veterinary team ensured Fitz was healthy and ready to move into his new home at Tropical Rain Forest, he was given plenty of private time away from the public eye to settle in and bond with his new animal keepers. The zoo’s temporary closure means there are less people around, and Fitz is making the most of that time by exploring his new digs. “Fitz is very gentle and attentive,” said Erin Sullivan, an animal care manager at Woodland Park Zoo. “From the start, he’s been good about coming up to us for training sessions, even as he was still learning the ropes of his new surroundings.” Fitz joins Nayla, a 13-year-old female in the Tropical Rain Forest – but they live separately and there aren’t any plans to introduce them to each other. Jaguars are solitary animals, choosing to hunt and live alone except for mating season and moms raising cubs. “Nayla had a litter of cubs in 2013, and there is no breeding recommendation in place by the Jaguar Species Survival plan,” explained animal curator Mark Myers.
