  • Janice Aria Was the Second Presenter on the Second Day of the NAIA Conference
    Janice Aria was the second presenter on the second day of the NAIA Conference. She began her presentation knowing she had very interesting and “tough” acts to follow. She had no need to worry ‐ ‐ this dynamic woman had us spellbound; she is a consummate entertainer. Originally from Oakhurst, NJ, Jan began her career with Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey in 1972 when she left her last semester at New York University and applied to Ringling Bros. Clown College. Upon graduation, she got a contract with prestigious Ringling Bros. and that was the beginning of a love affair. She told us that it fulfilled a dream ‐‐ to ride up on top of those wonderful elephants. She was especially featured with the elephants and bear acts, but she also had trained dog acts with Golden Retrievers of her breeding. She is, of course, a consummate entertainer who toured worldwide. Aria has close to 40 years in animal training and animal behavior, and in 2005, she was named Director of Animal Stewardship. She directs the elephant‐training program for Ringling, teaches training methods to animal handlers, and is involved in the care of the largest herd of Asian elephants in the Western Hemisphere. All of the animals in the circus are “free contact” as opposed to “barrier contact,” which is generally used for animals in other settings. She stressed that the key to having happy animals is finding what they want to do, and training from there. When the Circus arrives by train at each new town, they have The Animal Walk, which is a parade from the train station to the performance venue.

  • The Games People Play: Activity-Based Learning to Enhance Behavioral Husbandry Skills
    The Games People Play: Activity-Based Learning to Enhance Behavioral Husbandry Skills Michelle Skurski, Zoological Manager of Behavioral Husbandry Disney’s Animal Kingdom Angi Millwood, Director of Behavior Programs Natural Encounters, Inc. Staff Training The significance of staff training cannot be overstated; it is one of the most important components in the growth and development of a successful behavioral husbandry program. As behavioral husbandry programs develop and grow throughout zoological facilities, as they become an integral part of animal welfare and care, the need for appropriate staff training in this evolving field will escalate. It is then our responsibility to meet this new challenge. Many zoos and aquariums have implemented or begun to implement animal training and/or enrichment into their daily routines. How do these institutions formally train their staff for these additional responsibilities? Often, for those institutions that have made the effort to better educate their staff, employee training consists of a short lecture on animal training and enrichment basics, limited one-on-one coaching, and perhaps the use of a mentor for more consistent guidance. For many institutions, the only behavioral husbandry education provided is through on-the-job learning due to time constraints and lack of expertise available in the areas of animal training and enrichment management. We would like to suggest a few additional supplements to these more traditional staff training methods. When combined, these educational components can create an experience that is both entertaining and informative. With this in mind, the Behavioral Husbandry Activity Guide was conceived. It is our hope that the activities contained within this guide (attached) will provide an ongoing resource for individuals and institutions to use in a variety of capacities with regard to enhancing their skills in the subjects of animal training and enrichment.
