EPIDEMIOLOGY of SELECTED INFECTIOUS DISEASES in ZOO-UNGULATES: SINGLE SPECIES VERSUS MIXED SPECIES EXHIBITS Carolina Probst
EPIDEMIOLOGY OF SELECTED INFECTIOUS DISEASES IN ZOO-UNGULATES: SINGLE SPECIES VERSUS MIXED SPECIES EXHIBITS Carolina Probst, DVM,* Heribert Hofer, MSc, PhD, Stephanie Speck, DVM, PhD, and Kai Frölich, DVM, PhD1 Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research, Alfred-Kowalke Strasse 17, 10315 Berlin, Germany Reprinted with permission. American Association of Zoo Veterinarians, 2005. Joint Annual Conference. Abstract The study analyses the epidemiology of selected infectious diseases of 65 different species within the four families of bovids, cervids, camelids and equids in one czech and nine German zoos. It is based on a survey of all epidemiologic data since 1998. Furthermore 900 blood samples taken between 1998 and 2005 are screened for the presence of antibodies against selected viral and bacterial pathogens. The results are linked to the epidemiologic data. Introduction The concept of mixed species exhibits increasingly becomes important in European zoos. It is an important form of behavioral enrichment, it optimizes the use of space and it is of great educational value for visitors, giving them an impression of ecological connections. But until now it has not been elucidated whether the kind of exhibit may lead to an increase in the prevalence of specific infections. The aims of this study are to evaluate the exposure of zoo-ungulates to a variety of disease pathogens that can be transmitted between different species and to assess the epidemiology of mixed exhibits. We are interested in the following questions: 1. Which selected infectious agents are zoo ungulates exposed to? 2. What is the seroprevalence against these agents? 3. Is there a correlation between seroprevalence and the following factors: - animal exhibition system (single species / mixed species exhibit) - population density and animal movements - interspecific contact rates 4. -

The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden’s Education Department offers a unique look at our zoo—the zoo at night. We offer three sequential overnight programs designed to build upon students’ understanding of the natural world. Within these programs, we strive to combine learning with curiosity, passion with dedication, and advocacy with perspective. By sharing our knowledge of, and excitement about, environmental education, we hope to create quality experiences that foster a sense of wonder, share knowledge, and advocate active involvement with wildlife and wild places. Overnight experiences offer a deeper and more profound look at what a zoo really is. The children involved have time to process what they experience, while encountering firsthand the wonderful relationships people can have with wild animals and wild places. The program offers three special adventures: Animal Adaptations, Wolf Woods, and Sleep with the Manatees, including several specialty programs. Activities range from a guided tour of zoo buildings and grounds (including a peek behind-the-scenes), to educational games, animal demonstrations, late night hikes, and presentations of bio-facts. -

Immobilization and Anaesthesia in Asiatic Lions (Panthera Leo Persica)

Abstract | A total of 12 trials were conducted in 8 Asiatic and hybrid lions (Panthera leo persica) for diagnostic and surgical procedures. All the lions were immobilized with a combination of xylazine and ketamine at the rate of 1.00 mg/kg and 2.00 mg/kg body weight, respectively, using darts based on assumed body weight. Ketamine and propofol intravenously were used as induction agents sufficiently to achieve deep plane of anaesthesia and good jaw muscle relaxation in six trials each of treatment I and II. The commercially available large animal endotracheal tubes and cus- tom made silicon medical grade tubes were used for intubation either by direct visualization or by digital palpation of glottis. Anaesthesia was maintained with isoflurane. The study revealed that the young lions required 1.08±0.10 and 2.70±0.26 mg/kg and adult required 1.06±0.30 and 2.64±0.08 mg/kg body weight of xylazine and ketamine, respec- tively for immobilization. Ear flick reflex was taken as an indicator for safe and appropriate time for approaching the lion after immobilization, which was completely abolished only after 1.37 and 2.01 minutes after recumbency in young and adult lions, respectively. -

We conducted multiple short-term studies of the impact of zoo visitors on 16 animal species and found that 90.9% of the mammal species and 60.0% of the fish species studied exhibited some change in behavior related to zoo visitors. -
