Fiscal year 2012 was a very exciting year for Zoo New England marked with many achievements and new opportunities. From exciting births including a kangaroo joey, white-cheeked gibbon, and a Grevy’s zebra, to engaging interactive experiences such Aussie Aviary, Butterfly Landing and the always memorable Masters of Flight: of Prey show, there was so much to share.

Franklin Park Zoo celebrated a century of fun and adventure and people of all ages enjoyed the many celebrations in honor of the Zoo’s 100th birthday. As part of the centennial celebration, we presented the thrilling seasonal exhibit Zoorassic Park where visitors were immersed in a prehistoric journey through time filled with moving, roaring, life-like animatronic dinosaurs, including the imposing Tyrannosaurus rex.

As vibrant, essential contributors to our region’s cultural landscape, Franklin Park Zoo and Stone Zoo provide affordable, fun activities for families while simultaneously educating and inspiring wildlife conservationists and supporters. In FY12, more than 660,000 children, teens, adults, tourists, teachers and students visited the Zoos making FY12 a record-setting year. In fact, attendance increased 25 percent over FY11, strengthening our reputation as being a must-see destination.

Within our gates, classroom learning is brought to life and family memories are created. In FY12, we welcomed more than 47,000 students who visited our Zoos through school field trips. Their laughter and squeals of excitement were contagious as they streamed through our gates for a day of fun and learning. As the fiscal year drew to a close, we were anxiously preparing for the opening of our new, magnificent playground at Franklin Park Zoo which was made possible by the Play 2 Dream Foundation.

Delivering on our mission and inspiring tomorrow’s conservation leaders requires great vision as well as passion, creativity and commitment. We are fortunate to have a skilled and dedicated group of professional staff and a strong core of devoted Board members and volunteers working together to enhance our Zoos. The members of our greatly expanded Board of Directors provide strategic direction, insights, technical expertise, financial resources and untold hours of hard work in a commitment to raising our Zoos to the pinnacle of quality.

We look ahead with a sense of excitement and anticipation. Our Zoos are on the move and the years to come will be marked by transformation and growth that will help us truly realize the vision for these beloved institutions. We are privileged to have the loyal and generous Zoo members, donors and volunteers recognized in this Annual Report who are fueling this initiative. With your continued support, and that of a growing number of partners, we are making it happen!

Sincerely,

John Linehan President & CEO A kangaroo joey began to poke its head out of its mother’s pouch in February 2012 at Franklin Park Zoo. The arrival marked the first kangaroo birth at the Zoo since 2005.

In FY12, the Zoos experienced quite a baby boom and visitors delighted in seeing all of the new faces. In early July, red panda twins were born at Franklin Park Zoo, marking the first birth of this endangered species at the Zoo. Born helpless and with closed eyes, the twins, a male and a female, stayed in the nest box with their mother for three months after birth. They caused quite a sensation when they made their exhibit debut in October. In addition to the red panda twins, other births and hatchings included an endangered Grevy’s zebra, a red kanga - roo, and rare Siberian crane chicks. The kangaroo joey first began to poke its head out of its mother’s pouch in February. Kangaroo babies are born after a very short 30 to 35 day gestation and are about the size of a jelly bean. Joeys begin to emerge from the pouch for short periods at around 190 days. The arrival marked the first kan - garoo birth at the Zoo since 2005. A few months later, a rare Siberian crane chick hatched. Franklin Park Zoo is one of three North American institutions accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums to house these critically endangered birds. It is estimated that roughly 3,000 of these cranes, noted for their pure white plumage and black flight feathers, remain in the wild. The Zoo, the first in North America to successfully breed these birds, has produced seven chicks since 1999. This success is the result of a lot of hard work and tech - nical expertise. The newest chick, hatched May 15, 2012, at Franklin Park Zoo is a result of artificial insemination. Because these birds hail from the high Arctic regions, each year on February 14 the Zoo staff increases the amount of light in the birds’ exhibit by one hour a week to simulate the light cycle in their native environment. The light is increased until the birds receive 21 to 22 hours of light a day. Once the light cycle reaches this point, the birds typically begin breeding. At Stone Zoo visitors also saw a number of new faces. New births and hatches included a white-cheeked gibbon, a prehensile-tailed porcupine and Caribbean flamingos. Since the birth of the white-cheeked gibbon on Sept. 2, 2011, visitors have taken great pleasure in watching Paddy grow from being a small, helpless baby clinging to his mother to the thriving, energetic young gibbon who now swings throughout the exhibit alongside his parents.

On the occasion of our Founder's Day, celebrating 368 years of continuous existence, everyone at The Roxbury Latin School ventured to the Zoo, in its 100th year, for a day of education and interesting experiences. I am confident that our students have gained much greater appreciation for their responsibility as stewards of the Earth and all its creatures as a result of our shared adventure. We are very grateful for the professionalism, enthusiasm, and inspiring mission of the Zoo and all those associated with it.” – Kerry P. Brennan, Headmaster, The Roxbury Latin School

To honor Jonathan and his commitment to the welfare of animals, the Jonathan Gilmour Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in his memory. The fund was established by Zoo New England with the generous financial support and vol - unteer leadership from the Gilmour family.

Award winners are ZNE staff members who have been employed by the Zoo for at least one year.

Each May, the Jonathan Gilmour Memo - rial Scholarship Bike Ride is held in Hollis, N.H. Hundreds of riders celebrate Jonathan’s memory and through the years this Ride has raised tens of thousands of dollars to support the scholarship fund.
