The red pandas, the muntjac deer, the , the upgraded Flamingos, Cavies & Screamers, Oh My! exhibit, and the growing buzz about the upcoming Watershed Heroes project are all seen as evidence that the zoo is continuing the momentum begun in 2003 with the Barnyard and the Arkley Pavilion. ZOO STAFF Zane Krakowski Gift Shop Staff Ethan Sanderson Arlene Ghera, Manager This annual report shows why good things continue to happen at the zoo. The ever-growing popularity of the annual Zoo Manager Maricela Torres Joann Nord Gretchen Ziegler Betty Shirley events, the increasing visitor and volunteer numbers, the burgeoning roster of donors and sponsors, and the expanding FOUNDATION STAFF education and conservation programs are all indicators of a bright future for the Sequoia Park Zoo.

(1982-2012)

Three days after Christmas, a long-expected but nevertheless unwelcome event occurred with the death of Rosemary the Black bear. Between births, loans and donations, Sequoia Park Zoo had a near-record number of incoming animals in 2012.

Recently, my son Rolin, 9, did his school animal project on the Dodo bird. When he started this project, I wanted to help him with research, but couldn’t find any information about them. I thought dodos were related to dinosaurs, but my son was quick to correct me.

“No, mom, dodos are not dinosaurs. They only went extinct about 400 years ago.” He then went on to add, “There is also this plant that went extinct because there were no more dodos to spread and fertilize the seeds.”

Amber Neilson I was so impressed. I thought he learned all this from the internet. Rolin said “No, mom, I learned it from zoo camp”.
