Walking through the Zoo, you might see a variety of seemingly “out of place” items. Whether it’s a giraffe working its amazing tongue to get a tasty treat from a puzzle feeder, monkeys using their skills on a colorful toy, or a training session with theA seals… all of these techniques are part of our Behavioral Enrichment program. At Hogle Zoo, our animals are given opportunities to learn, interact and express natural behaviors using enrichment—a term used to describe the activities used by keepers to enhance the animals’ environments. In their natural environments, animals live in an ever- changing world. Their goal is to simply survive. But animals in a Zoo live the easy life. Without the need to find food, protect territory, or avoid predators, animals can spend their time developing a wider range of behaviors. They have time to explore many other abilities using enriching activities provided by our zoo keepers. Our enrichment goal is to stimulate our animals’ minds and bodies using natural and artificial means. We enhance their environments with challenges, novelty and unpredictability. Providing enrichment can increase activity, reduce some of the stresses associated with zoo life, and improve overall health and One of our female Orangutans, Acara, interacting with an enrichment item. welfare. With these techniques, we strive to provide the animals with an element of choice and control in their lives. Although a fun and exciting part of our work, providing enrichment is a challenging job. It’s not as simple as throwing a ball in with the bears and calling it good. It’s a daily process based on goal setting, safety assessments, documentation and observation. Keepers routinely provide enrichment from 5 categories: SENSORY FOODS/ MANIPULATIVE/ ENVIRONMENTAL BEHAVIORAL/ Scents, sounds and FEEDING TOYS Items that add SOCIAL sights: olfactory Task-oriented puzzle Items that can be complexity to the Visual access to stimuli (spices, feeders which manipulated in some animal’s exhibits other animals (animal perfumes, snake sheds), provide challenge way via the hands, and enclosures, e.g., ambassadors like birds, auditory stimuli and extend feeding horns, head, etc. for swings, climbing snakes, rodents) or (sounds of nature times. simple investigation structures, hiding artificial animals recordings), visual and play, e.g., places, visual (decoys, piñatas, etc.).

The next time you stroll Zoo grounds, be sure to study these key principles and look for enrichment around every corner. You never know…there just might be a pop quiz.

    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.

  • Biology Has Been Taught at Bristol – As Botany and Zoology – Since Before the University Was Founded in 1909
    Biology has been taught at Bristol – as Botany and Zoology – since before the University was founded in 1909. Bristol has made significant contributions to many fields, from animal cognition and medicinal plants to entomology, evolutionary Game Theory and bird flight – and the BBC Natural History Unit's proximity to the University has led to television careers for a number of graduates! In 1876, University College, the precursor to the University, appointed Dr. Frederick Adolph Leipner as Lecturer in Botany, Zoology and, amusingly, German. Leipner had trained at the Bristol Medical School, but taught botany and natural philosophy, later combining this with teaching in Vegetable Physiology at the Medical School. He became Professor of Botany in 1884 and was a founding member of the Bristol Naturalists' Society, becoming its President in 1893. Bristol today is proud of its interdisciplinary strengths and, among others, offers Joint Honours Degrees in Geology and Biology, and in Psychology and Zoology. A portent of these modern links is seen in one of the University's most notable early appointments, Conwy Lloyd Morgan, appointed as Professor of Zoology and Geology in 1884 and then – somehow fitting in service as Vice- Chancellor – becoming the first Chair in Psychology (and Ethics). Lloyd Morgan is most famous as a pioneer of the study of comparative animal cognition. He was a highly influential figure for the North American Behaviourist movement: “Lloyd Morgan's cannon” is a comparative psychologist's version of Occam's Razor whereby no behaviour should be ascribed to more complex cognitive mechanisms than strictly necessary. He was the first Fellow of the Royal Society to be elected for psychological work.
