  • National Aviary's 2016 Annual Report
    A Closer Look at Conservation 2016 Annual Report Pittsburgh, PA Dear Friends 2016 has been another milestone year for the National Aviary, and I can’t thank you enough for helping to make that possible! You may have noticed that our Annual Report cover features Valentino, our two-toed sloth. While our name conjures images of free-flying, beautiful birds, we are first and foremost a conservation organization. One of our most important roles is connecting people to the natural world in meaningful ways. This year, Valentino became a high-profile ambassador for conservation. By telling his story, we were able to shine a spotlight on all of the birds of the Rainforest and the threats they are facing. Valentino even connected with a huge national audience when The Ellen DeGeneres Show featured him meeting Violet, a five-year-old cancer survivor. As visitors delight in our exhibits, shows and personal encounters, they don’t always realize the essential work that is going on behind the scenes and in the field. This report gives us a chance to highlight this important work in ecological research, veterinary and husbandry advances, and educational outreach. These initiatives are only possible with your support, and I thank you for being a partner in the critical work of advancing global conservation of birds and their habitats. Sincerely, Cheryl L. Tracy Executive Director On the Cover Our cover photo was taken by Dave DiCello, who was the featured artist for our Wings & Wildlife Art Show in November. Thanks to all of the artists, sponsors, donors and attendees, we raised nearly $50,000 for National Aviary programming during this annual weekend event.
