12. The White Lion from the Cincinnati zoo that have been moved to a private reserve in Africa. of KNOWN subspecies in North American and South african zoos combined. http://users.aristotle.net/~swarmack/whitlion.html

Steves Menagerie This is a White Lion ...When the children cry...La Da Da..... Oh. Hey. Do you remember that tune? It was by the late-80's hairspray-metal band "White Lion". Not a bad tune for the genre I guess....They also did "Wait"....I had the tape. (Embarrassing, but true.) At the time they were making music, I didn't realize that there really WERE white lions. I guess I knew that albinism can happen in almost any species from time to time, and melanism is especially common in some big cats...(black leopards....etc.) ...but lions are just so... tan. There is only one example of a melanistic lion that I have ever read about. This was a report of a very big Persian lion that was seen by the archaeologist Sir Henry Layard which was described as being " very dark brown in colour, in parts almost black. " There are, of course, no lions at all left in Persia today...much less big black ones. An albino lion cub was born recently in the Lujan Zoo in Buenos Aires. In his book, "Wild Cats of the World", C.A.W. Guggisberg makes mention of a couple of albino cubs born in Kruger National Park in 1960, and one of these albinos was apparently still alive in 1977, when it was mentioned in the preface to the book "The White Lions of Timbavati"... which brings us to the beginning of our story Even though the cubs were snow-white... they WEREN'T albinos. They had normal yellowish-brown eyes instead of the pink eyes that an albino would have. The white color is caused by a recessive gene, much like the white tigers of India.

It occupies sprawling grounds in central Parktown, with numerous trees, water features and beautiful walks around the various enclosures. The stars of the show are, of course, the animals and the collection is impressive, including lions, tigers, elephants, gorillas, chimpanzees, sable antelope, bat-eared foxes, dolphins, polar bears and many other species. Read more Visit the Zoo's web site Hopes for a baby gorilla at Jo'burg Zoo JOHANNESBURG Zoo has announced its intention to breed a baby gorilla using artificial insemination. Despite encouragement the zoo's two adult gorillas, Max and Lisa, have not produced any offspring. The gorillas, both aged 30, do not have a particularly close relationship; add to this Max's low sperm count and the fact that gorilla babies are born only once every three to four years and the chances of adding to the zoo's gorilla population have been slim. The zoo has tried artificial insemination once before but the attempt was unsuccessful. According to the curator of primates, Philip Cronje, insemination is not an exact science. Gorillas must be inseminated when they are ovulating, and because there are other variables there is no certainty of success.

18. Public Education In USA A collaborative team from BCTF, AZACEC, and african zoos and sanctuaries will develop a template for zoo-based exhibits on bushmeat. http://www.bushmeat.org/html/mayusedbullets.htm

Public Education in USA Bushmeat Education Working Group Discussion Summary The bushmeat trade in Africa is an issue that strikes members of the public in North America very deeply for a variety of reasons. BCTF has received numerous requests for information from the public and from its member institutions for materials that could be used to educate the general public about this critical wildlife and human issue affecting most of Africa today. Visitors to North American zoos number more than 140 million each year. Bringing the bushmeat issue to this audience can lead to the effective education of more than half of the US population. With the endorsement of the American Zoo and Aquarium Association's Conservation Education Committee (AZA-CEC), BCTF is working to develop a coordinated multi-media set of materials to be used by BCTF Supporting Members and AZA institutions to reach out to the North American public on this issue. In addition, AZA-CEC has a strong interest in strengthening educational efforts on the ground in Africa. A consultant should be hired to conduct a review of current educational efforts in North American zoos, and to provide feedback and recommendations on an effective approach to this audience.

20. 299/izn and the other animals to South african zoos and wildlife parks. WildNet Africa News Release, 22 November 1999, reported in Animal Keepers Forum Vol. http://www.zoonews.ws/IZN/299/izn.html

INTERNATIONAL ZOO NEWS Audubon Institute, New Orleans, Louisiana, U.S.A. A domestic cat at the Institute's Center for Research of Endangered Species has given birth to an African wildcat in the world's first successful inter-species frozen–thawed embryo transfer. The birth, on 24 November 1999, marks a major breakthrough in the field of assisted reproduction technology for rare and endangered species. This is the latest in a series of projects pioneered by the Audubon Institute's Senior Vice-President for Research, Dr Betsy Dresser, and Senior Scientist Dr C. Earle Pope. In 1989, Drs Dresser and Pope, then at Cincinnati Zoo's Center for Reproduction of Endangered Wildlife, led the team that produced the first successful Indian desert cat birth to a domestic cat, a procedure which utilized a fresh embryo [see I.Z.N. 36:4, pp. 12–13]. They also led the team that produced the world's first `test tube' gorilla in 1995. (January 2000) Berlin Zoo, Germany Two (1.1) musk deer ( Moschus moschiferus ) were born at the zoo on 17 and 19 July 1999. This is the first breeding of the species at Berlin, and the young are being mother-reared. The father, born in 1994 at Leipzig, came to Berlin in 1995. The mother is wild-born and arrived in December 1998 on loan from Paris Zoo. Their enclosure at Berlin is densely planted with bushes and is equipped with a wooden platform about 2.5 m high, because musk deer have been observed ascending steep rocks and other high obstacles in the wild. The animals like to rest, either standing or lying down, on their platform. Berlin Zoo received its first musk deer in 1888, but this animal lived only for a few months. Three others lived at the zoo in 1891–1893, 1905–1908 and 1929–1932. The musk deer is still a rare sight in zoos; the only other zoos in the EAZA region that have bred this species in the 1990s are La Torbiera (Agrate Conturbia, Italy), Leipzig (Germany), and Novosibirsk and Seversk (both in Russia).
