How can a zoo simulate that need? Most zoos house endangered species. Research how zoos protect endangered animals and how you can help. Some zoos breed animals using a species survival plan (SSP). Research why zoos do this and how it may help endangered species. There are many types of animal facilities. Rescue zoos, animal sanctuaries, shelters and traditional zoos all have different goals. Look up some animal facilities around you. What are their goals for their animals? Some places may focus on saving endangered species while some may focus on rescue and rehabilitation.

This may include a bat house, a bird feeder, providing nest supplies, or even planting flowers to attract butterflies! Rescue facilities acquire their animals from people who got an exotic animal as a pet and could no longer take care of it. Research some exotic animals (such as snakes, kinkajous, and birds) and find out why they don’t make good pets. Put together a short presentation for your troop or make posters to post at your school or another local gathering spot (be sure to get permission first). From saving endangered species to rehabilitating hurt animals, zoos do a lot to help animals. Do some research to find some projects zoos are working on and put together a short presentation for your troop or friends to show them why zoos are important. Most zoos have wish lists or adopt an animal programs to help care for their animals. Talk to your local zoo to see how you can help. You may be able to create some enrichment items to donate or sponsor an animal. 3 RESOURCES Local Zoos o Austin Zoo: https://austinzoo.org/ o Capital of Texas Zoo: http://www.capitaloftexaszoo.org/ o Cameron Park Zoo: http://www.cameronparkzoo.com/ o San Antonio Zoo: https://sazoo.org/ o Animal World and Snake Farm Zoo: http://www.awsfzoo.com/ Other Resources o World Wildlife Fund: https://www.worldwildlife.org/ o National Wildlife Federation: https://www.nwf.org/ o International Union for Conservation of Nature: https://www.iucn.org/ o Association of Zoos and Aquariums: http://www.aza.org/ o Zoological Association of America: http://zaa.org/ o American Association of Zookeepers: https://www.aazk.org/ o National Geographic: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/ 4 .

  • Young Lioness Joining New Pride -- BALTIMORE, MD
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Jane Ballentine 6 November 2015 O: 443/552-5275 C: 301/332-1742 NEW CHAPTER FOR LEIA THE LIONESS -- Young lioness joining new pride -- BALTIMORE, MD – Later this month The Maryland Zoo will say goodbye to young lioness Leia, who along with her sibling Luke, was born here in October 2013. Leia will be joining a new pride of lions at the Cameron Park Zoo in Waco, Texas. “It’s a bittersweet moment for us at the Zoo,” said Don Hutchinson, president/CEO of the Zoo. “Watching Luke and Leia grow and thrive under the care of our animal care staff has been enormously rewarding. Together with their adopted sibling Zuri and father Hassan, they have created such a dynamic pride and have engaged thousands of visitors from their first forays into the yard. We knew the moment might come when she would move to become part of another pride, and we are sorry to see her leave.” The move comes at a time when Leia is beginning to mature and needs to be placed in an unrelated pride of lions. The pride at the Cameron Park Zoo consists of an older female lion, 17-year-old Shamfa and three-year-old male Kaikane (ky-kaw-nay). “This move was recommended by the Association of Zoos and aquariums (AZA) African Lion Species Survival Plan (SSP),” stated Carey Ricciardone, mammal collection and conservation manager. “Our colleagues have a lot of experience with lions and we know that she will be well cared for there. We hope that visitors to the Cameron Park Zoo come to know her well, as she is usually very interested in what people are doing when they visit her here.” Leia will travel to Waco by truck in a specialized travel crate with a team of senior staff members from the Cameron Park Zoo.
