  • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
    AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAMMALOGISTS 94th ANNUAL MEETING Renaissance Oklahoma City Convention Center Hotel and Cox Convention Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma PROGRAM The 2014 American Society of Mammalogists Annual Meeting logo features a Pronghorn (symbol of the ASM) with an abstracted Oklahoma City skyline, and water representing the Oklahoma River and Bricktown Canal. The arrangement suggests OKC’s historic Art Deco architecture and new architecture like the Devon Tower, Scissortail Bridge, and Oklahoma River boathouses. The logo was designed by Hadley Jerman, Graphic Designer at the Sam Noble Museum in Norman, Oklahoma. AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAMMALOGISTS 94th ANNUAL MEETING Renaissance Oklahoma City Convention Center Hotel and Cox Convention Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAMMALOGISTS (ASM) The American Society of Mammalogists (ASM) was established in 1919 for the purpose of promoting interest in the study of mammals. An Overview—In addition to being among the most charismatic of animals, mammals are important in many disciplines from paleontology to ecology and evolution. We, of course, are mammals and thus are in the interesting position of studying ourselves in quest of a greater understanding of the role of mammals in the natural world. The ASM is currently composed of thousands of members, many of who are professional scientists. Members of the Society have always had a strong interest in the public good, and this is reflected in their involvement in providing information for public policy, resources management, conservation, and education. The Society hosts annual meetings and maintains several publications. The flagship publication is the Journal of Mammalogy, a journal produced 6 times per year that accepts submissions on all aspects of mammalogy.

INTRODUCTION Dr Jennifer D’Agostino is Board Certified by the American College of Veterinary Zoological Medicine, and is the Director of Veterinary Services in an Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) accredited facility – the Oklahoma City Zoo (OCZ.) After CHAI was found dead on 1/30/16, Dr D’Agostino made the following entry in the Medical Records: “There were no previous signs of illness.” The Oklahoma City Zoo Press Release on 1/30/16 announcing CHAI’s death states, “Chai received regular [veterinary] wellness checkups…and seemed to be healthy.” Tara Henson, spokeswoman for the OCZ was quoted in various media outlets saying: “There hadn’t been anything that raised a red flag. She had been in good health” – information she undoubtedly obtained in consultation with the Director of Veterinary Services, Dr D’Agostino. However, the Medical Records and Keeper Records paint an entirely different picture.

  • Photo Exhibit Speaks to Species Under Threat of Extinction
    Photo Exhibit Speaks to Species Under Threat of Extinction Artist Clint Jenkins says he's doing his part to spread awareness with his first show Endangered: The Collection By Steve Bornfeld 9/25 4:56pm Stripped of skin, devoid of bodies, bereft of life. Alive, nonetheless. “It’s an awareness thing,” says Australian-born Clint Jenkins, a Vegas transplant, commercial photographer and first-time exhibitor with his pointedly titled Endangered: The Collection at MCQ Fine Art. “People need to know there is a threat.” Big, stark and haunting, Jenkins’ photos are of the skulls of animals listed as endangered by the global governing body, the International Union for Conservation of Nature. And the effect, both of the cause and the style in which it is visually addressed, is powerful. “Some of the skulls look like they’re pulling out of the page,” gallery director Michele Quinn says. “They could come across as flat and dull, but there is such a great quality of depth. It’s understanding how lighting contrasts really come together. There is some soul to the work.” Draped dramatically between shadow and light, the skull photos were mostly shot earlier this year at the Museum of Osteology in Oklahoma City, which is devoted to the study of bones and skeletons. Set against black-as-night backgrounds, printed on hot press cotton rag and dispersed around the cozy gallery, the vivid images seem sprinkled around the vast emptiness of space, as if eternal, but no longer of this earth—that being precisely the point. “Keeping it simple is more impactful,” Jenkins says.

  • Summer Learning Programs: STEM
    STEM Summer Learning Programs Overview of Summer Learning Programs Summer learning programs are designed to provide students with additional opportunities for learning and growing during the summer months. Districts and schools should strive to create opportunities for all students to access a summer learning program. Overview of STEM STEM is an acronym that stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. The Oklahoma State Department of Education is dedicated to preparing students for their futures, and a high-quality STEM education will help prepare students for post-secondary science, math, engineering, computer science, and technology opportunities. As the United States Department of Education states, in an ever-changing, increasingly complex world, it's more important than ever that our nation's youth are prepared to bring knowledge and skills to solve problems, make sense of information, and know how to gather and evaluate evidence to make decisions. These are the kinds of skills that students develop in science, technology, engineering, and math. If we want a nation where our future leaders, neighbors, and workers have the ability to understand and solve some of the complex challenges of today and tomorrow, and to meet the demands of the dynamic and evolving workforce, building students' skills, content knowledge, and fluency in STEM fields is essential. We must also make sure that, no matter where children live, they have access to quality learning environments (https://www.ed.gov/stem). In Oklahoma, STEM education includes the individual disciplines of mathematics, computer science, and science as well as the purposeful integration and application of mathematics and science with technology and engineering.
