  • Thirty Years Later: Enrichment Practices for Captive Mammals à Julia M
    Zoo Biology 29 : 303–316 (2010) RESEARCH ARTICLE Thirty Years Later: Enrichment Practices for Captive Mammals à Julia M. Hoy, Peter J. Murray, and Andrew Tribe School of Animal Studies, The University of Queensland, Gatton Campus, Queensland, Australia Environmental enrichment of captive mammals has been steadily evolving over the past thirty years. For this process to continue, it is first necessary to define current enrichment practices and then identify the factors that limit enhancing the quality and quantity of enrichment, as well as the evaluation of its effectiveness. With the objective of obtaining this information, an international multi- institutional questionnaire survey was conducted with individuals working with zoo-housed mammals. Results of the survey showed that regardless of how important different types of enrichment were perceived to be, if providing them was particularly time-consuming, they were not made available to captive mammals as frequently as those requiring less staff time and effort. The groups of mammals provided with enrichment most frequently received it on average fewer than four times per day, resulting in less than two hours per day spent by each animal care staff member on tasks related to enrichment. The time required for staff to complete other husbandry tasks was the factor most limiting the implementation and evaluation of enrichment. The majority of survey respon- dents agreed that they would provide more enrichment and carry out more evaluation of enrichment if it was manageable to do so. The results of this study support the need for greater quantity, variety, frequency, and evaluation of enrichment provided to captive mammals housed in zoos without impinging on available staff time.

  • Steve Irwin Herpetology
    Stephen Robert "Steve" Irwin (born February 22, 1962 – died September 4, 2006), nicknamed "The Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin was (among other things) a herpetologist. He was a scientist who studied and took care of reptiles and amphibians. Irwin was born and raised in Australia where his mother and father started the Australia Zoo. He grew up around reptiles and took over the management of the zoo as an adult. Even as a child he was involved in the care and feeding of animals and taking care of the zoo. He is best known for a successful television series called “Crocodile Hunter” in which he wrestled crocodiles. Irwin loved nature and animals. By teaching people about animals he wanted to protect them and the habitats they live in. He wanted to share his excitement about the natural world with people and make them aware of endangered animals, or animals with low populations, and land clearing leading to loss of habitat. Irwin died on September 4, 2006 after being pierced in the chest by a stingray barb while filming an underwater film titled “Ocean's Deadliest”. What does a herpetologist do? A herpetologist is a scientist who studies amphibians and reptiles. They encounter many interesting and potentially dangerous animals. There are many tools a herpetologist can use to handle, observe and assist amphibians and reptiles. A herpetologist can use a snake hook to safely pick up snakes. If a herpetologist is working with snakes, they may keep antivenom close by in case they get bitten. Gloves are important to protect a herpetologist against bites by a lizard or snake.

    Leading � rec�very Annual Report 2019–2020 TARONGA ANNUAL REPORT 2019–2020 A SHARED FUTURE � WILDLIFE AND PE�PLE At Taronga we believe that together we can find a better and more sustainable way for wildlife and people to share this planet. Taronga recognises that the planet’s biodiversity and ecosystems are the life support systems for our own species' health and prosperity. At no time in history has this been more evident, with drought, bushfires, climate change, global pandemics, habitat destruction, ocean acidification and many other crises threatening natural systems and our own future. Whilst we cannot tackle these challenges alone, Taronga is acting now and working to save species, sustain robust ecosystems, provide experiences and create learning opportunities so that we act together. We believe that all of us have a responsibility to protect the world’s precious wildlife, not just for us in our lifetimes, but for generations into the future. Our Zoos create experiences that delight and inspire lasting connections between people and wildlife. We aim to create conservation advocates that value wildlife, speak up for nature and take action to help create a future where both people and wildlife thrive. Our conservation breeding programs for threatened and priority wildlife help a myriad of species, with our program for 11 Legacy Species representing an increased commitment to six Australian and five Sumatran species at risk of extinction. The Koala was added as an 11th Legacy Species in 2019, to reflect increasing threats to its survival. In the last 12 months alone, Taronga partnered with 28 organisations working on the front line of conservation across 17 countries.

This Update includes information on Asian elephants that were living or died during the reporting period (1 May 2005 through 16 July 2007), 287 living elephants are included here – 50 males and 220 females. Much of the work associated with publishing this Studbook Update was performed by Karen Lewis. Karen serves the Oregon Zoo as our Conservation Program Assistant. She surveyed facilities, validated data, and made contact with many of you who have contributed animal information to the Studbook. Conservation interns Stephanie Dobson & Terrah Owens were instrumental in getting this Studbook Update ready for publication. Terrah formatted all of the studbook reports and created the pdf document. We will continue our effort to validate historical information and we expect to be contacting many of you to assist us with that effort. Special thanks for all of you who have been responsive to our requests for information and for responding to our surveys. We could not have accomplished this publication without your efforts. Additional information or corrections are enthusiastically welcomed and should be forwarded to either myself or Karen. Mike Keele – Deputy Director Karen Lewis – Cons. Prog. Asst. Oregon Zoo Oregon Zoo 4001 S.W.
