Finding the Wildlife Hero in You! SAVING AND PROTECTING WILDLIFE

is at the core of everything we do here at San Diego Zoo Global. In this month’s issue, you will read about some of our critically important conservation issues at home and abroad. The timing could not be more perfect, since three years ago this month, the San Diego Zoo Global Wildlife Conservancy program was launched. This program provides essential funding for our conservation projects by enlisting the support of Wildlife Heroes—our monthly donors—from across the globe. I am delighted to tell you that we now have more than 2,000 Wildlife Heroes from over 20 countries. From helping save giant pandas in China and polar bears in the Arctic to protecting elephants in Botswana, these wonderful individuals are helping change the future for wildlife for just pennies a day. I want to personally thank all of our current Wildlife Heroes. You truly are making a difference for the animals that need you most! And I would also like to invite the rest of you—our Zoo family—to find the Wildlife Hero in you and join us today. If you are interested in becoming a Wildlife Hero, please call Sarah Wagner in our Development Department at 619-557-3914, or visit us at endextinction.org. I could not be more proud of our conservation work, and I look forward to the future with great hope. Together, we can end extinction!

Hooray for the Holidays!

an you believe how fast the year has gone by? Here we are in November—with holiday cheer just around the corner! At San Diego Zoo Global, we have much to celebrate this holiday season, with many conservation successes, our new vision to lead the fight in ending extinction launched, the opening of the magnificent Tull Family Tiger Trail at the Safari Park, and lots of exciting planning for the Zoo’s centennial in 2016 getting underway. We’re giving thanks for that and so much more this Thanksgiving, and we’d love to have you join us at the Zoo or the Safari Park for one of our wonderful Thanksgiving Dinners (look for the information in this issue). In December, we’ll be ringing in the Zoo’s joyous holiday celebration, Jungle Bells presented by California Coast Credit Union, with holiday lights, music, entertainment, visits with Santa (through December 25), and, of course, encounters with our amazing animals. Members can enjoy a special preview on December 12, and then Jungle Bells opens to the public on December 13 and continues through January 4, 2015. I hope you’ll have a chance to come enjoy the festivities with us during this “most wonderful time of the year!”

you said it I had an opportunity to visit the Safari Park and see the gorillas.… Winston was an impressive size. I’m always surprised how much larger the animals are in person vs on video. carol_lizard

Hi San Diego Zoo! My name is Meryl and I had so much fun at the zoo. Here is me with the rhino. I forgot his name because I was so excited to meet him. Meryl Klemow

We had the best day! Thank you so much @sandiegozoo for everything! @tori_spelling Just remembering the anticipation and the long wait to see Gao Gao when he first went on exhibit for the first time. It was awesome. So very grateful for Panda Cam and of course the information blog. We can see and hear about our pandas any time we want with the flick of a switch. Priceless. NancyB San Diego I love watching this group [on Ape Cam]. The little [orangutan] is so adorable. Yesterday mom was cradling Aisha and swinging. Then they had a little rope climbing lesson. Then mom hid under the burlap and Aisha was right above her hanging on practicing her lessons. Thank you for bringing so much joy to my life. Lisa in Maine

Awesome time tackling ropes course @sdzsafaripark today. Super fun and a great self-esteem booster for an 8 year old. @KKyle I am so impressed with the progress of the Condor program to date & hope that it continues to have impact on their global footprint. Julieoz Just got home from our @sandiegozoo trip. That is, in my opinion, one of those places you MUST go [to] at least once. It’s always incredible. @the_esdeem #Elephant zookeeper talk research @sdzsafaripark: guests left inspired about #conservation on #WorldElephantDay. @zooscience

LEADING THE FIGHT TO END EXTINCTION

African elephants, Andean condors, Grevy’s zebras, South African cheetahs, Pacific pond turtles, Uganda giraffes, and many other imperiled species. For instance, just 20 years ago it was thought that the giant panda could not be saved. Its numbers were plummeting, its habitat was shrinking, and people knew little about this species’ behavior and reproduction. But years of collaboration between scientists at our Institute for Conservation Research and their Chinese counterparts, as well as observing and learning from our pandas at the Zoo, have led to the successful breeding of pandas in managed-care facilities and helped move this much-loved animal away from extinction. Now, the population of giant pandas has increased to 300 in zoos and breeding centers, a number that can sustain genetic diversity for the species for the next 100 years. Similarly, San Diego Zoo Global has made major contributions toward saving the California condor from extinction. From a population of only 22 birds in the 1980s to more than 400 today—half of which have been released into or hatched in the wild—these North American birds have made a magnificent comeback and have regained their rightful place in the skies. Our researchers were instrumental in developing ways to collect and incubate condor eggs, raise chicks using condor-looking puppets, introduce pairs for breeding, and acclimate and release birds into the wild. Through controversy,

“NEVER DOUBT THAT A SMALL GROUP OF THOUGHTFUL, COMMITTED CITIZENS CAN CHANGE THE WORLD; INDEED, IT’S THE ONLY THING THAT EVER HAS.” Anthropologist Margaret Mead’s words continue to be inspirational, especially when it comes to wildlife conservation. At this point in human history, the challenges presented in saving the Earth’s endangered species are undeniably daunting, but that’s where commitment, collaboration, and a true love of wildlife play a vital role in making a difference. As San Diego Zoo Global heads toward its 100th year, our new vision is to lead the fight to end extinction. We are fortunate to have the support of our members, donors, sponsors, partners, and visitors to work toward this audacious goal, since we certainly cannot do it alone! Working together, we can create a hopeful future for the next generation and the plants and animals that need our help. As a conservation organization, San Diego Zoo Global is committed to the science of saving endangered species worldwide and to inspiring passion for nature. Our innovative and multidisciplinary approach brings people and groups together to collaborate on solutions, with projects that take place locally and in more than 35 countries around the world. Throughout our history, we have aided in the conservation of three rhino species, mountain yellow-legged frogs, Hawaiian birds, Arabian oryx, Przewalski’s horses, Galápagos tortoises,

Throughout our organization’s history we have also played a major role in conservation by successfully breeding endangered species at the Zoo and Safari Park. Our efforts have increased the population numbers for some of the rarest animals in the world. These include primates like the lion-tailed macaque, western lowland gorilla, bonobo, and Sumatran orangutan; birds such as the harpy eagle, Micronesian kingfisher, African open-billed stork, and brown kiwi; mammals like the scimitar-horned oryx, Chinese dhole, Somali wild ass, Sumatran tiger, and clouded leopard; and reptiles and amphibians such as the Fiji banded iguana, Panamanian golden frog, and Brother’s Island tuatara. Breeding endangered species has long been a focus of our organization, and it continues to provide us and our partners and supporters with purpose, direction, and inspiration.

We continue to look ahead, working with other conservation groups and researchers to determine where our efforts can make an impact in saving wildlife. The crisis of poaching and habitat loss that elephants and rhinos are facing is one area that all conservationists agree is in dire need of attention. We are working with partners in Botswana for African elephants and in India and Indonesia for rhinos to find ways to keep them safe, determine their needs, and protect their habitat, in the hopes of halting the frightening population declines. Tigers, too, are in critical need of help and protection, and we are working with researchers in Indonesia to support the patrol and maintenance of wildlife parks where Sumatran tigers can escape poaching and human persecution.

The giant panda is an iconic conservation success story, having retreated from certain extinction during the past 20 years. Breeding centers have bolstered this bearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s numbers, while an increase in wildlife reserves in China has helped wild pandas thrive.

Because these owls nest in burrows dug by squirrels, we relocated 700 California ground squirrels to several sites managed as burrowing owl habitat. Using banding, tagging, and remote cameras, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re gathering information that can help us understand the survival and reproduction of the owl population in San Diego and define habitat restoration strategies.

With only 400 Sumatran tigers left in the wild, a long-term monitoring program is vital to conservation efforts. Way Kambas National Park in Sumatra, Indonesia, is one of their three major habitats. We have teamed with officials there to study the number and distribution of these critically endangered big cats.

Found only on the slopes of Mauna Kea, scarcely more than 1,000 palila survive today. Our Hawaii Endangered Bird Conservation Program has been helping boost the population since 1996, hatching more than 90 of these critically endangered birds and releasing 28 to their native forest.

In partnering with the Mabula Ground Hornbill Project in South Africa, we have assisted with training staff in incubation and chick-rearing techniques, based on our experience with California condors. We have also provided tracking and photography equipment, as well as hand puppets to raise chicks.

In 2012, our mission to restore the California condor to its native habitat hit a milestone: the first successful fledging of the species in Baja California, Mexico, in more than 80 years. Now, combined with birds raised in managed care, the number of condors adding to the population each year has topped 50.

Koalas face many threats, and we are studying these marsupials across their range. Data collected and compared from different populations will assess variations in ecology, genetics, behavior, and reproductive success. The Zooâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s koala colony provides insight into how they use scent and sound to communicate.

Carol and Dick are always happy to meet new animal friends at the Zoo and Safari Park.

hen you first meet the Millards, you know immediately that they are true wildlife lovers. “We sincerely value all animals, from the magnificent to the slithery—all deserve our respect and contribute to the balance of nature,” Carol said. And then you learn that Carol’s parents also had a “deep and abiding love for the San Diego Zoo,” becoming Founder’s Circle members, just as Carol and Dick are today. Although they are not native San Diegans, Carol came here in the early 1960s with her family and became a social worker. She followed that with working as a tour guide and a yoga instructor, while

Dick was stationed here with the U.S. Navy for about one year and later worked for the Department of the Navy. They met and then married in the mid-1960s, and both discovered a shared love for the Zoo. They were also present at the Wild Animal Park’s opening (now the Safari Park) in 1972, and the Park is still one of their favorite places to take friends, especially on a Caravan Safari. Two of their favorite memories are welcoming Ivan the giraffe as he stretched his long neck into the caravan truck to nibble on leaves and witnessing the birth of a blackbuck antelope. As Carol remembers it, their friends “had their mouths open” from all the excitement.

As we talked, their great enthusiasm and dedication for bettering the lives of animals became apparent. Members since the 1970s, Carol and Dick have supported many new habitats at the Zoo and

Each time an exhibit is remodeled or created, the lives of animals are enriched with new sights, scents, and sounds, including more opportunities for play, exploring, and foraging using natural behaviors. For Carol and Dick, that makes every gift so rewarding. As a couple, the Millards share many interests, such as exploring local tidewater pools, road trips, and visits to Hawaii. Since they adopted a homeless dog, Duchess, they don’t like to go too far afield and leave her behind, so daily walks are now at the top of their list. They also share a love of classic cars and owned a 1957 Ford Thunderbird for several years. Created just a year after the Corvette, it debuted at the Detroit Auto Show in 1954 and had all the flair of a sports car com-

bined with luxury and great style. After Dick restored it, they entered—and won!—several competitions with their T-Bird. When it was eventually sold, Carol says they kept the trophies and have great memories of driving this incredibly popular two-seater with its distinctive porthole windows. Both Carol and Dick said how much they are looking forward to the opening of Conrad Prebys Africa Rocks in 2017. With homes for penguins, zebras, leopards, baboons, lemurs, and other species, it will be the Zoo’s largest exhibit to date, as well as a spectacular follow-up to the Zoo’s centennial in 2016. Carol mentioned that they recently gave a gift for their first memorial bench—and she likes this idea so much that they may want a second bench for Africa Rocks. With a twinkle in her eye, she asked that I come and sit on their bench when the exhibit opens, taking time to unwind from the day. It will be an easy promise to keep.

from the archives

Un-“seal”ing Their Fate San Diego Zoo Global’s commitment to conservation began not long after the Zoo itself was founded. One mammal species, the Guadalupe fur seal Arctocephalus townsendi, owes at least part of its current existence to those efforts. By the early 20th century, commercial hunting had so decimated the fur seal’s population that the zoological world believed the species to be extinct. Then, in 1928, our founder, Dr. Harry Wegeforth, received news of possible Guadalupe fur seal sightings. He commissioned a voyage to islands off the Pacific Coast of Baja California, Mexico. A Guadalupe fur seal population was indeed located there, and a few individuals were brought to the San Diego Zoo. Hoping to also protect the remaining Guadalupe fur seals in the wild, the Zoo, in conjunction with the Mexican government, resolved to keep the location of the fur seals a secret. This was the beginning of our organization’s recognition of the need to conserve populations of animals and its dedication to achieving that goal.
