  • Rare Amur Leopard Birth at Jackson Zoo
    NEWS 2918 West Capitol Street Jackson, MS 39209 Date: August 30, 2007 Contact: Christopher Mims, Director of Marketing and Public Relations 601-352-2599 Rare Amur Leopard Birth at Jackson Zoo The Jackson Zoo is pleased to announce the birth of a female Amur Leopard, Judda, who turned six weeks old Wednesday. The Jackson Zoo has been home to two Amur Leopards, Nikolai (male) and Katya (female), since 2004. This was Katya’s first pregnancy, and of the two offspring born, only one survived. The surviving cub has had to be hand-fed by Zoo staffers since birth and is not currently on display. “Sometimes new mommies can be a little rough with newborns, and we felt that Judda needed to be observed very closely,” said Vet. Tech Donna Todd. Amur leopards are very distinct from other leopards. Their long legs and long hair allow them to survive in cold, snowy climates. Their spots are widely spaced rosettes with thick borders. The color of their fur changes from lighter in the winter to a more reddish-yellow in the summer. The average adult male weighs between 82-198 pounds and the average female weighs between 62-132 pounds. Photo: Judda practices her ferocious snarl. Amur Leopards are critically endangered with field survey data estimates indicating that there are fewer than 50 leopards left in the wild, making the Amur leopard one of the world’s most endangered cats. The latest results estimated there were 25-40 Amur leopards in the Russian Far East and 4-7 in northeast China (Jilin Province).

  • Jackson Zoo Animal News
    Jackson Zoo Animal News Elephant Move a Success! African Elephants Transferred from Jackson Zoo to Nashville Zoo Last Week African Elephants, 'Juno and Rosie', longtime residents of the Jackson Zoo were transported to their new 'state-of- the-art' elephant habitat at the Nashville Zoo last week. "The trip went as planned without incident" said executive director, Beth Poff. "We are so glad to hear that the elephants are adjusting quickly to their new home and have already begun to bond with their new herd mates and care takers". The animals were transported via 18-wheeler tractor -trailer truck and accompanied by their keepers to assist with the adjustment once in Nashville. Connie Philipp, director of animal collections at the Nashville zoo commented: "The drive up from Jackson for both elephants went very well. They ate along the way indicating that they were very comfortable during transport. Both girls unloaded from the vehicles without any problems or injury. Currently, both Juno and Rosie are inside our elephant barn getting to know our two females, Sukari and Hadari. Our keepers are now working closely with Juno and Rosie to establish a close relationship. We hope to have all four together in our African Elephant Savannah habitat soon." Members of the Jackson Zoo are reminded that they may visit Juno and Rosie in their new home free of charge as part of our reciprocal zoo program for our members! Nashville Zoo's African Elephant Savannah is a 3-acre habitat complete with a 150,000 gallon wading pool, mud hole, tall trees for shade and plenty of grass.

  • Jackson Zoological Society Annual Report 2013
    Jackson Zoological Society Annual Report 2013 The mission of the Jackson Zoological Society is to provide visitors with a quality recreational and educational environment dedicated to wildlife care and conservation. ACCOMPLISHMENTS 2013 The Jackson Zoo underwent a “Zoo It Better” branding campaign in 2013. Beginning in November of 2012, the Zoo It Better campaign outlines and communicates the focus of the first phase of improvements visitors will see. Among the first improvements will be updated signing inside and outside of the zoo. The new signing will be bright, engaging, and helpful to give visitors a livelier atmosphere, an easier time finding their way, and more interesting information about the animals they see. Future phases of the Zoo It Better campaign will focus on adding value to Zoo Memberships, building partnerships with corporate sponsors, and growing the quality of the interactions visitors will have with animals. As the campaign progresses, the Jackson Zoo will continue to focus on acquiring, caring for, and conserving endangered species from around the world. CONSERVATION Change for Change Did you know that with every visit to the zoo, you’re not only having a great time with the family, but you are also supporting organizations that work directly with wildlife? 25 cents of every admission goes directly to our Change for Change Conservation Partners. Tiger Conservation Campaign In the tropical forests of Sumatra, the smallest subspecies of tiger is losing ground to habitat loss and poaching. Considered “critically endangered”, Sumatran tigers may number fewer than 500 in the wild. The Tiger Conservation Campaign supports the Wildlife Conservation Society’s efforts to reduce tiger- human conflict by constructing tiger-proof livestock pens in villages, increasing outreach and aware- ness, and responding with veterinary assistance to tigers caught in snares.
