ANNUAL REPORT 2010

The Wildlife Conservation Society saves wildlife and wild places worldwide. We do so through science, global conservation, education, and the management of the world’s largest system of urban wildlife parks, led by the flagship Bronx Zoo. Together these activities change attitudes toward nature and help people imagine wildlife and humans living in harmony. WCS is committed to this mission because it is essential to the integrity of life on Earth. table of contents

Melissa Nelson

Melissa Nelson started out training dolphins in the Florida Keys. Now, she teaches Bronx Zoo animals how to help themselves—to toys, treats, and health care. Working in WCS’s animal enrichment programs, Melissa works hard to keep our animals healthy and happy. Here she describes calming crocodiles with a Frisbee and how some animals train us.

What is animal enrichment? our animals are edging toward extinction. If 32 A good overall way to define enrichment is we’re their best chance for their species’ survival, anything that increases an animal’s choices, we need to provide the most appropriate gives it control over its environment, or environment and the best possible care, so they 010 enhances its welfare.

This removes much of WCS is in the unique position of having world- the stress involved in routine care. Many of class animal facilities as well as well-developed global conservation projects. In our zoos and at the New York Aquarium, we’re perfectly situated to both inform and learn from field science. Enrichment and training programs play an important role in determining the best care for our animals. WCS alone is in the position to synthesize these two pieces into a powerful conservation tool.

How does animal enrichment vary from animal to animal? Animals are individuals and as such, have individual preferences. We structure our enrichment and training programs according to the animal’s natural history and its most important senses. We then let their individual Can enrichment activities at the zoo be preferences guide us. A good example is that for applied in the field? many animals, scent is a very important sense. Animals are notoriously difficult to study in So even though an exhibit may look the same the field, but in our facilities we get a peek into to us from day to day, we vary the smells daily. their private lives.
