Conservation Projects

Conservation, education, recreation and research are the four main objectives of a good modern zoo. While it is important to think globally and act locally, it is also important for zoos where possible, to actively support 'in-situ', conservation programmes in the wild.
Auckland Zoo's Conservation Fund (established in 2000), finances specific projects, donates equipment, offers advice on animal care and where possible may provide professional assistance through the short term placement of keepers.
The Conservation Fund currently supports two overseas programmes:
  • Turtles and tortoises in Cuc Phuong National Park (Vietnam)
    Orangutans in the Sumatran Orangutan Project (Vietnam)

As at Oct 2003: Cuc Phoung received $13,000 and The Sumatran Orangutan Society received $13,000 Financial contributions are used to purchase identified equipment or resources. Other in-situ programme conservation programmes supported in the past include Sumatran tigers and Malayan sun bears.
Two local projects are currently being funded and or supported by the Zoo's Conservation Fund.

Gazella granti
Grant's gazelles are in the order Artiodactyla, or even-toed ungulates (hoofed mammals). They belong to the family Bovidae, which includes antelope, cattle, sheep and goats. G. granti is in subfamily Antilopinae, which has 14 genera. Members of the subfamily Antilopinae are "true antelopes". They are small- to medium-sized, graceful creatures with slender legs and rather long necks. The horns are usually present in both sexes, but may be reduced or absent in females. All 16 species of gazelles are members of the genus Gazella
Grant's gazelles live in southeastern Sudan, southern Ethiopia, southwestern Somalia, northern Tanzania, northeastern Uganda and Kenya.
Habitat
Grant's gazelles inhabit semi-desert areas, open savannas and treeless plains. Herds avoid tall grass if they can. They occasionally roam in acacia thicket country, but only if the area has many paths and open swaths.
Physical Characteristics
Grant's gazelles are long-legged, heat- and drought-tolerant antelopes. They are stocky and larger than most gazelle species, with males standing between 33 -36 inches (8-91 cm) tall, and a body length of 61-65 inches (155 -166 cm). The weight of males ranges from 128-180 pounds (58-82 kg), with an average of 143 pounds (65 kg). Females stand 29-32 inches (74-81 cm) tall and have a body length of 55-59 inches (140 -150 cm). The weight of females ranges from 84-148 pounds (38-67 kg), with an average of 99 pounds (45 kg). For both sexes, the tail length is 8 -11 inches (20-28 cm).

POSTSCRIPT
Abstract
top

This paper examines the proposed new standards for exhibiting primates at zoos and animal parks in New South Wales. It examines why the standards have been developed and looks at some interesting welfare issues which the standards attempt to address. Some of the intended benefits for the primates, the general community, the zoo-visiting public, primate exhibitors and primate welfarists are presented.
Some of the difficulties encountered in preparing the standards have revealed deficiencies in published information and in the availability of information about a variety of factors that effect the welfare of primates kept for display. Examples are presented to encourage improvement in understanding of these factors.
Introduction
top The fact that non-human primates resemble humans in many ways has contributed greatly to their popularity as exhibit animals in zoos and animal parks. People readily empathise with primates and can become deeply concerned about their welfare. There is a growing appreciation that primates are one of the more highly developed groups of animals, having special psychological and social needs. The more advanced mental characteristics of this group arguably give its members a greater potential to suffer if their needs are not met. Consequently there is considerable public interest in the welfare of exhibited primates.

San Diego Wild Animal Park

In brief
Take a break from the roller coasters and animatronic creatures and spend some time gawking at real animals. The San Diego Zoo is among the best and most beautiful zoos in the U.S. One of the pioneers in the use of natural habitat exhibits, as opposed to traditional iron-bar cages, the zoo allows guests up-close views of an incredible variety of animals. To see animals in an even more natural environment, head over to the Wild Animal Park (separate location, separate admission). There you can take a 50-minute train ride through acres of animals roaming freely or embark on a walking "safari" tour. For a special treat, plan your visit to be at the zoo around dusk when most of the guests have gone and it's just you and the animals.

The Three Major Animal Parks
Looking for wild times? San Diego supplies them as no other city can. The world-famous San Diego Zoo is home to more than 800 animal species, many of them rare and exotic. A sister attraction, the Wild Animal Park , offers another 3,500 creatures representing 429 species in an au naturel setting. And, Shamu and his friends form a veritable chorus line at SeaWorld San Diego waving their flippers, waddling across an ersatz Antarctica, and blowing killer-whale kisses in more than a dozen shows a day. In 1999, San Diego's "Big Three" family attractions were joined by LEGOLAND California , which is located about 30 miles away in the seaside community of Carlsbad. Now That's What I Call a Deal! Always aware of what side their tourism bread is buttered on, San Diego's three main animal attractions have joined forces with combo ticket deals that reward big savings to visitors with recreational stamina. Here's how it works: If you plan to visit both the zoo and Wild Animal Park, a two-park ticket (the "Best Value" zoo package, plus Wild Animal Park admission) is $53 adults, $36 children 3 to 11 (a $59/$39 value). You get one visit to each attraction, to be used within 5 days of purchase. If you throw in SeaWorld within the same 5 days, this combo works out to $92 adults, $67 children ages 3 to 9 (a $106/$78 value).
