Five rare and endangered le- murs that San Francisco zoo veter- inarian Graham Crawford carried from America to release into the animals' ancestral jungle are thriv- ing happily there. They've taken up with their wild relatives, although not with- out some conflict and interhemi- spheric sexual confusion. They've virtually given up their lifelong American diet of monkey chow for the abundant lo- cal forest fruits. And they've left the ground to frisk high in the canopy of their tropical nature preserve, while learning to leap from branch to branch, and surviving falls from treetops as high as 60 feet All that is good news indeed for Crawford's human colleagues at the San Francisco zoo, including director David Anderson who hopes more captive-bred lemurs can be successfully returned to re- store Madagascar's vanishing le- mur population. Anderson chairs the Mada- gascar Fauna Group, an inter- national organization of zoos dedicated to saving the world's most endangered creatures that inhabit the island nation. The San Francisco zoo's lemurs don't have tall trees to fall from, but crews are reconstructing the primate area and building a more accurate replica of their native habitat for them. Other fauna there are the two nocturnal aye- ayes, members of the lemur fami- ly, and officials are hoping to in- clude endangered Madagascar reptiles and turtles in the exhibit In a unique experimental ef- fort to preserve Madagascar's 32 vanishing varieties of lemurs, An- derson's International group has sponsored the first "return" of five captive-born black and white ruf- " fed lemurs from America to the IEMURS: Page A16 CoL 1 Lemurs live in the rain forests of Madagascar and are found up to 4,000 feet above sea lever LEMURS: Experiment in Madagascar Forest From Page A13 Betampona Nature Reserve, a nat- ural habitat of the species. The five furry little primates were born and raised at the Duke University Primate Center in North Carolina, where the wildest terrain they ever saw was their "boot camp" in a small, fenced for- est on campus. In October, Crawford caged them for the 42-hour flight to Mad- agascar via Paris, and once at the 6,000-acre reserve, they were re- leased into the forest. Amply supplied with open con- tainers of water and trays of civi- lized food placed on the ground and hauled high into the trees, the immigrants quickly learned where the wild lemurs naturally live and frolic and forage. "We all hoped they'd stay up close at first so we could watch them carefully," Crawford said in San Francisco. "But they scram- bled up into the trees right away, leaping from branch to branch. "That was a leap of faith, too, because they faced a pretty steep learning curve where if you don't make it, you die." To zoo director Anderson, Mad- agascar is "the conservation hot spot" of the world, where hun- dreds of animal and plant species found nowhere else on Earth are threatened by the rapid destruc- tion of their habitat. People of the impoverished na- tion in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Africa have little fertile land to till, so slash-and-burn agri- culture is swiftly destroying the forests to make way for rice plant- ing that in turn quickly destroys the soil's fertility. The government has finally created a few national parks and nature preserves where the native wildlife can be protected, Ander- son said. And plans are under way to re- lease more captive-born animals from zoos around the world, in- cluding San Francisco's — if the first experiment with the five le- murs Crawford took to Madagas- car succeeds. "If we don't get started right away," Anderson said, "there'll be nothing left there to save." So far, it appears, the first ex- periment is proving a big success. The lemur cast that Crawford carried to Madagascar includes Zu- ben'Ubi, a 12-year-old male; Prae- sepe, an 11-year-old female; Sarph, Praesepe's 4-year-old son; Letitia, Praesepe's 6-year-old daughter; and Janus, Letitia's 18-month-old son. In lemur society, incidentally, it's the females who rule the roost; they're the dominant ones. Back in San Francisco, Ander- son and Crawford and Eva Sar- gent, the zoo's director of conser- vation and science, have been re- ceiving e-mail reports from the Madagascar Fauna Group's field workers on the scene. According to the messages, Praesepe has encountered a wild lemur named Boot. But because she lived so long in North Carolina, she and Boot can't seem to hit it off. Praesepe has just come into es- trus, the proper term for heat, but it's the wrong season for Madagas- car. Back in North Carolina, female lemurs are receptive in January, but in Madagascar, it happens in June and July. So while Praesepe is ready, Boot is confused. He has tried half-heartedly, but he really isn't ready and probably couldn't impregnate her anyway because his hormones aren't up to it, said Dean Gibson, a Duke Uni- versity zoologist. But Boot is still eagerly follow- ing Praesepe, even though she cuffs him on the nose when he comes too close. "He must be ei- ther confused or astounded at his good luck, although it's unlikely that he is in breeding condition," the reports say. Meanwhile, Zuben'Ubi is quite ready to impregnate Praesepe, and has been busy fighting with Boot for the privilege. At the same time, Praesepe has been observed fighting aggressive- ly with other wild females in the area — "but fortunately without much damage so far, although we're wondering what will happen when Praesepe's hormones get in synch with the local season," Gib- son said. Letitia and her son Janus are accustoming themselves more slowly to their new habitat, but they, too, have made themselves at home high in the trees. In fact, Letitia has already suc- ceeded in protecting her young- ster against attack by a Madagas- car hawk. The raptor buzzed the family, startling Letitia, but on the bird's next pass she chased it away with a noisy charge, Gibson said. The field workers at the re- serve have counted about 30 wild , lemurs in the forest there, and by following the five newcomers closely, they have observed them ranging more and more widely in the home territory of the forest's native Sahabefoza lemur group. "All five of the released ruffed lemurs continue to adapt very well to forest life, spending days forag- ing for food and resting, just as do their wild-born counterparts," said Charles Welch in an e-mail from the Betampona headquarters. "Now our concern is that they don't bully their . . . relatives too much. Stay tuned."

The then-cub was a $60,000 gift from Donald E. Levy, a San Francisco businessman. At the time, he was one of only 52 white tigers in the world and the first to be ex- hibited in the Western United States. EXAHVER/ 19B2 S.F. Zoo's beloved white tiger dies Mystery illness fells Prince Charles, who had graced The City since '82 By Gregory Lewis OF TVC EXAMNEP STAFF The Year of the Tiger has claimed one of its own. Prince Charles, a rare white Bengal tiger that was a popular attraction at the San Francisco Zoo, has died, zoo officials said. The 16-year-old, 346-pound male tiger was found dead by ani- mal keeper Jack Castor at about lfh20 ajn. Friday; 20' mfihrtes after being let out of the Lion House, where he had spent the night be- cause of the stormy weather. "It's like losing a dear friend," Castor said. "He's been in my heart since he was 5 months old. He was more than just hair and bones to me. He was a character. He was a personality, gentle and very tame." 'I lest a good buddy' Castor said Prince Charles, known as "Charlie" to his keepers, was a public attraction, particular- ly during feeding time, when Cas- tor and the big cat played games and amazed the crowds. "He was the showpiece of the Lion House," said Castor. He was "not only a crowd favorite, but a good friend of mine. I lost a good buddy today. He's going to be missed." Castor said Prince Charles suf- fered from arthritis in both hips and elbows and lately had refused to take his daily arthritis medica- tion, but his last medical checkup in April 1996 did not indicate any unusual problems. "He appeared to be normal,'' Castor said. Although results of a necropsy, performed Friday, are pending, zoo) veterinarian Dr. Free land Dunker said he suspects Prince Charles was killed by a heart attack or a cerebral hemorrhage because of the suddenness of the death. "There was no gross abnormali- ty, no tumor on the spleen or gut twist. . . . My target organ is the heart," Dunker said. He said Prince Charles had re- ceived a complete physical nearly two years ago, including blood work. X-rays, abdominal and kid- ney biopsies. He also was treated for an infected wound as a result of a fight with his cage mate. Prince Charles made a snarling debut at the San Francisco Zoo in 1982 amid much fanfare. He was joined by his normal-colored sister, Whiskers. The then-cub was a $60,000 gift from Donald E. Levy, a San Fran- cisco businessman. At the time, he was one of only 52 white tigers in the world and the first to be exhib- ited in the Western United States. Levy also gave the zoo three gorillas and donated money to the aviary. He said he donated Prince Charles and the other animals out of respect for his parents, who I -"died 26 days apart at ages 82 and 88 and liked animals better than people." The white tiger is a rare color variation of the normally orange- and-black striped Bengal tiger. Its features include charcoal stripes on a background of white fur, icy-blue eyes and pink nose and paw pads. Bengal tigers are an endangered species and their natural habitats are found throughout India, Bur- ma, Sumatra, Java and Bali. They normally live 15 years in the wild and up to 25 years in captivity. But Dunker said a tiger is old when it reaches its mid-teens, as Prince Charles had. Most live until their upper teens. "But a 14- or 15-year-old tiger is getting to be an old tiger," Dunker said. Not much of a ladies' cat Prince Charles' mother, also a white tiger, died at the Cincinnati Zoo of natural causes at age 14. Prince Charles never had any offspring. He was put together with a female tiger but they did not get along and he spent a long time in a cage by himself, Castor said. Given Prince Charles' arthritic condition, Dunker said the animal would have died sooner had it been in the wild. "He wouldn't have been able to capture prey," Dunker said. "He would have starved to death. In captivity, we were able to give him anti-inflammatory (drugs) and throw him his food." On Friday, a wreath and sign noting Prince Charles' death hung at his cage at the zoo, Castor said. §an 3rancisco Chronicle Bay Area AND CALIFORNIA FRIDAY, APRIL 10, 1998 moras tr UANr wAio/me chbcnicie Zoo's Lorikeets Get Open-Arm Welcome Rainbow lorikeets, a species of Australian parrot, like to use nectar-holding human beings as dinner tables in the new aviary exhibit that opens today at the San Francisco Zoo. Four of the 50 birds dined atop Cristina Roman's arm, while one tickled Supervisor Michael Yaki's head at pre-opening festivities yesterday. Yaki had a brilliantly colored "lorie" when he was a child living in Indonesia. The zoo's walk-through exhibit is a collaboration with Berwick Productions, a group of animal handlers that is seeking to habituate the birds to people. Visitors can purchase nectar to feed to the lorikeets. The exhibit is open through November. Sunday, June 14. 1998 SAN FRANCISCO ZOO PHOTO ger Awareness Day at the San Francisco Zoo is celebrated Saturday by ly Peng of Cupertino, as she adds colored clay to an effigy of a tiger. S.F. hosts campaign to raise awareness of tigers' dire plight By Cynthia Chung ASSOCIATED PRESS An international wildlife con- servation group, allied with an un- likely partner, has chosen The City as the site of a pilot project to save the world's tigers. The World Wildlife Fund joined this weekend with the San Francis- co-based American College of Tra- ditional Chinese Medicine in seek- ing to raise awareness about the plight of the tiger among Asian communities. Among the events scheduled were a "Tiger Awareness Day" at the San Francisco Zoo and a con- ference of conservation experts and traditional medicine practitio- ners. San Francisco was chosen, in part, because it has the oldest and largest Chinese community in the United States, said Ginette Hem- ley, director of international wild- life policy at the World Wildlife Fund. It's also significant that 1998 is the Year of the Tiger in the Chi- nese zodiac calendar, Hemley said. Historically, Chinese people have ascribed medicinal values to tiger parts, fueling a demand that encourages widespread poaching. Tiger fat, for instance, is used to treat vomiting, dog bites and scalp ailments, while tiger flesh is said to relieve nausea. A tiger's leg bone, ground into powder, is a popula cure for rheumatism and arthritis Those beliefs date back thou sands of years, but they must dis appear — before the tigers do, sak Lixin Huang, president of th< American College. "The disappearance of the tige will bring no good to the environ ment, humankind or the balanct between humans and nature,' Huang said. "We realize that we'rt part of the cause, and that we neec to be part of the campaign (to save the tigers)." According to the World Wildlife Fund, there are fewer than 6,00( wild tigers in the world today. Ir. Russia alone, the tiger population shrank by half, from 400 in the early 1990s to 200 in 1993. Its neighbor, China, is home to onlj about 50 of the animals. Sunday's conference, "Saving the Tiger For Our Children, Foi the Future," will discuss conserva- tion efforts and alternatives to ti- ger bone, such as bones from bear boar or cattle. Huang believes that as soon as the Chinese community under- stands the plight of the tigers, the> will need no further convincing. "To a lot of them, it is a shock- ing fact that tigers are disappear- ing," Huang said. "Tiger culture is part of Chinese culture; it is in our language, arts, painting, medicine and the opera."

"This is a very special event for us," said zoo Director David Anderson outside the darkened aye-aye habitat. Inside, one aye-aye hid in his nest while another curled up in an unlit corner and fluffed her massive tail. An aye-aye is a rare form of nocturnal lemur found only in Madagascar. Some lemurs are cute. But aye- ayes are creepy. The aye-ayes make the wart hogs look like runway models," quipped Steve Spalding, chairman of the zoo board. With that kind of introduction, it's no wonder the aye-ayes kept to the shadows. But the female, 3-year- old Caliban, briefly crept forward into a patch of dim light to retrieve some nuts left for her breakfast. A handful of reporters and photographers had been waiting for some time to get a glimpse and — zoo gods willing — a picture of the beasts. When human atten- dants climbed into the enclosure to plant the nuts, one video guy declared: "They're beautiful. They look just like us." Actual aye-ayes look more like bats, with huge ears and sharp teeth. They also have yellow eyes, ratlike snouts and bushy tails that appear to account for about half of their body weight. And they have remarkably long, skinny middle fingers that they use to scoop grubs out of tree branches. Their unique nature, and their prodigious middle digits, prompted Supervisor Michael Yaki to declare: "No wonder they've found a home in San Francisco." Caliban and Merlin, her bashful male buddy, both came from the Duke Primate Center, a private research lab in North Carolina. With the opening of Aye- Aye Forest, the local zoo be- came the first in America to display a pair of aye-ayes, said Eve Lyon, curator of primates. There are only 14 aye-ayes in America, and fewer than 2,000 in their native Madagascar, where sweeping destruction of their forest habitat has critically endan- gered the species. It doesn't help that many Malagasy people consider aye-ayes to be bad luck (because they hang out on trees in cemeteries) and kill them on sight. Others, however, think they're charmed and give dead aye-ayes full- blown human funerals, said Laurie Persons, the zoo's marketing and public relations coordinator. Although Caliban and Merlin are being kept apart until they adjust to their new quarters, Lyon said, they will soon be united in hopes of producing little aye- ayettes. Thursday's party in their honor did nothing to en- hance their sociability. Merlin was still cowering in his box hours later. Those attending the bash — featuring [SeeZOO,B-12] il EXAMINER / PAUL CHINI Caliban, the female ( aye-aye introduced at the San Francisco Zoo Thursday, crept out of her darkened j M corner to get some nuts, and gave the . ^ press a look at her.

On hand was Jean-Marie de la Beaujardiere, honorary consul of Madagascar, who flew in from Vir- ginia. He boasted of Madagascar's unusual ecosystem — where 90 percent of all creatures are unique to the island — and bemoaned the impact of human development. Lilliane Koziol, local honorary Malagasy consul from Berkeley, gave a traditional "speech of apolo- gy" in her native language. She apologized for everything but the aye-ayes. "I have to apologize for being here and have to allow you to for- give me and bless me for any wrongdoing that I might perpe- trate and for any blame that you might have for me," said Koziol. Anderson said Aye-Aye Forest is the first exhibit in a planned Madagascar Center, featuring var- ied wildlife from that island nation, to be opened by 2003.

Adams EXAMINER URBAN PLANNING WRITER The San Francisco Zoo has un- veiled its plan to transform "one of the world's worst zoos" into "a wonderful learning center different from any in the world." Fresh details of the zoo master plan were presented to the Plan- ning Commission on Thursday in a 190-page environmental impact re- port. The new zoo layout and the en- vironmental report came under at- tack from critics worried about how increased traffic, a major earthquake, questionable plant management and cool Pacific Ocean winds may affect the zoo's 800 animals. The zoo renovation has been launched because many of the 55- year-old facilities are in disrepair, and officials say the ocean-side's harsh climate and the deteriorated animal housing no longer meet hu- mane standards or federal health [SeeZOO,A-16] ♦ ZOO from A- 1 Plans unveiled for zoo make-over and safety criteria. The report unveiled Thursday anticipates the zoo will grow from 75 to 125 acres by 2006. Much of the added land will consume an area formerly occupied by the 1,000-foot-long Fleishhacker swimming pool. Many of the changes will be fi- nanced by a $48 million bond issue approved by The City's voters last November. The plan's overall $73 million first phase envisions replacing ani- mal cages and enclosures with "natural" habitats designed to re-c- reate the animals' places of origin. Various buildings would be de- molished or reconstructed, parking spaces almost doubled — from 871 to 1,740 — and the zoo's main entrance moved from Sloat Boule- vard to the oceanfront's Great Highway. Other improvements include a children's center and mini-zoo, an education center, a reforestation program and open grasslands where animals can graze instead of prowling cement-floored cages. KEY COMPONENTS OF REBUILT S.F. ZOO The African savanna The first-phase plan includes the African savanna, which will hold giraffes, zebras, gazelles, os- triches, a crane, the African lion, black rhinoceros and elephants. The post- 2006 or second phase, the development of which depends on available funding, would include "biogeographic" regions for South American, Asian montane and southeast Asian animals. A simulated rain forest will be installed inside two climate-con- trolled buildings, also in the post- 2006 phase. An Australian biogeographic re- gion will include facilities for par- rots, cockatoos, birds of paradise, sea turtles, tree kangaroos, a walla- by and a koala. Among aspects of the zoo to be retained are the Mothers Building, SLOAT BOULEVARD cr-rTj-— A Old main entrance ^ entran New entryway/ disabled 1. New education center 2. New children's center 3.

Future great ape forest the carousel, the zoo keeper's resi- dence, the Terrace Restaurant and the stone walls that line Sloat Bou- levard. At Thursday's hearing, Plan- ning Commissioner Rick Hills questioned whether the plan "over- destroys and over-builds." Greatest city, worst zoo It's "a paradox that the world's greatest city has one of the world's worst zoos," he said. Jorge Garcia, director of zoolog- ical medicine for the National Council for Excellence in Zoo Ani- mal Management, raised concerns in a letter about plans to grow plants common to equatorial cli- mates. "There is no evidence or reason to assume that tropical veg- etation will work in the San Fran- cisco Zoo climate or soils," he said. Garcia also questioned how ani- mals' health might be threatened by increases in auto traffic, a po- EXAMINER GRAPHICS tential major earthquake and re- moval of windbreaks. John Aikin, the zoo's curator of exhibits and design, defended the plan, predicting the zoo will be transformed from "a very modest institution for the stature of the community into ... a wonderful learning center different from any in the world." The Planning Commission must certify the final environmen- tal report. Beyond that, planners' sole jurisdiction will be to review permits for new buildings at the zoo, Zoning Administrator Robert Passmore said. Daily zoo attendance ranges from less than 4,000 to up to 20,000 on "free" days. Once the plan's pro- posals are completed, zoo atten- dance is expected to increase to up to 10,000 on weekdays and up to 30,000 on peak days, zoo officials estimate. c < u cr < ID 1 I I I I SAN FRANCISCO ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS Expanded Partnership Annual Report for 1998 The Fifth Year Table of Contents Background 1 Summary 2 Partnership Report - The New Zoo 3 Responsibilities to Animals and the Conservation Mission Animal Management Highlights 12 Significant Acquisitions and Dispositions 16 Conservation and Science 17 Responsibilities to Staff Staff Development 23 Responsibilities to the Public Education, Volunteering and Outreach 25 Public Relations and Marketing 30 Public Meetings and Information 34 Funding 35 Appendices Species and Specimen Inventory A Press Clipping Compilation B Television News Coverage C hi in a a i i i i i BACKGROUND In October 1993, the San Francisco Zoo entered into a new era with the signing of the expanded Lease and Management Agreement between the City and County of San Francisco and the San Francisco Zoological Society. This Agreement shifted management and operations of the Zoo from the City to the Zoological Society. In its fifth year, the Zoological Society, on the heels of a successful bond campaign to rebuild the facility, began the challenging process of planning and designing the New Zoo. Already, several architects, a construction management team, a Board Oversight Committee, and staff members have devoted a year's effort to realize this goal. This Annual Report highlights events of fiscal year 1998 and the responsibilities of the Zoological Society to animals, staff and the public. Audited financial statements for 1998 were submitted separately to the Recreation and Park Commission in November, 1998. i I I a i H I I a i i i i i i ii i I SUMMARY • Following passage of Proposition C, the San Francisco Zoo commenced laying the groundwork for Phase II, the New Zoo. Zoo staff, in conjunction with professional firms retained by the Zoological Society to assist on the project, expended considerable time and effort on preparation for this crucial second stage in the Zoo 2000 Master Plan. • The Primate Discovery Center received much-needed structural repairs that are expected to withstand the coastal climate more effectively and that have enriched the environments greatly for the primates. • The Zoo welcomed several fascinating animals to newly built exhibits. A pair of rare Malagasy aye-aye found a new home in the Primate Discovery Center's renovated Nocturnal Gallery (renamed Aye-Aye Forest), while Zoo visitors bearing cups of nectar got a chance to meet fifty Australian rainbow lorikeets up close at the new Rainbow Landing™. • A special Tiger Awareness Day increased understanding of the plight of the tiger for hundreds of Zoo visitors. The event focused on organizations' efforts to save these endangered species and to heighten awareness in the Chinese community, thereby discouraging the use of tiger parts in traditional Chinese medicines. Tiger Awareness Day received considerable press coverage and was a laudable example of the Zoo's conservation efforts. • Five black and white ruffed lemurs, accompanied by Zoo veterinarian Dr. Graham Crawford, journeyed to Madagascar to be released last October as part of a project headed by the Madagascar Fauna Group, headquartered at the Zoo. This was the first successful release of captive-bred lemurs into the wild, and the animals adjusted well. • Calle, the Asian elephant plagued by tuberculosis last year, is responding well to her medication and is in what should prove to be the final six months of her treatment. • Summer programming increased this year, with the expansion of Meet-the-Keeper and Talk On the Wild Side presentations in the Main Zoo. Animal management staff worked with the Education department's young volunteers to produce Talk On the Wild Side, which enables these volunteers to serve as interpreters to Zoo guests. Meet-the-Keeper demonstrations provided the public with a much sought-after 2 0 II 11 II II 1 1 fl 1 II 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 I opportunity to question animal keepers about their charges. Summer programs have proven very popular, and more are planned for the coming year. • The Education department continued to provide invaluable services in eight major areas: public programming, school programs, fee-based classes and workshops, interpretive planning and graphics content for Zoo exhibits, collaboration with like institutions and organizations, volunteer and docent services, youth programs, and community outreach. • The Conservation and Science department enhanced the Zoo's position as a conservation organization with ongoing work in the areas of field conservation programs, scientific research programs, and conservation support activities. • Key Zoo positions were added or filled - Director of Development and Capital Campaign, Director of Marketing, and Curator of Planning and Design - while Zoo staff, in addition to working on Phase II planning, devoted considerable energy to preparing for the visiting re-accreditation committee from the American Zoo and Aquarium Association. • Zoo visibility was heightened by advertising campaigns for Rainbow Landing™, Aye- Aye Forest, and several other animals. Promotional and sponsorship activity was significant (Ford and the Bay Area Ford Dealers sponsored the lorikeets, Exxon sponsored Tiger Awareness Day) and news coverage continued to be extensive. Support for education and conservation from major donors, corporations, and foundations continued to grow. 3 1 i i a i i i i i i i i a i i PARTNERSHIP REPORT - THE NEW ZOO The New Zoo On June 3, 1997, the voters of San Francisco passed Proposition C, a ballot initiative to rebuild the San Francisco Zoo. Passage of the $48 million bond measure paved the way for the process of rebuilding the 68-year-old institution. The Zoo 2000 Master Plan set forth a four-phase program that would convert the Zoo into a world-class facility. Phase I was completed with $13 million in private contributions, and addressed the Zoo's most immediate needs. The bond program represents the beginning of Phase II, and it encompasses a series of projects carefully sequenced to result in financial stability and growth, as well as state-of-the-art facilities. The projects set out in Phase II are collectively referred to as the New Zoo. An illustrative map of the New Zoo is attached; see The New Zoo, June 1998. Planning and Design The Zoological Society has contracted with several professional planning firms to assure the success of the New Zoo. The firm of O'Brien Kreitzberg was retained for program management services. An on- site program manager assists the Zoo with project scope, organization, schedule, cost and reporting functions. The program manager is responsible for coordination of all aspects of planning and construction of the New Zoo. The preliminary schedule is outlined in the attached The New Zoo Preliminary Construction Schedule, June 1998. The architectural firm of Coe, Lee, Roberts (CLR) was retained as master architect. CLR has extensive experience in zoo exhibit design and master planning. The master architect is responsible for defining the program for all elements of the New Zoo. The program, in turn, defines the location and rough square footage for each element; it also describes the functional, aesthetic, contextual, and interpretive qualities of each project. The New Zoo program was developed throughout months of meetings with Zoo staff, docents, donors. City planners and the Zoo's Board of Directors, and is detailed in the Zoo Exhibit Program Study. Public comments were received at six Joint Zoo Committee meetings, as well as meetings with community groups. In November, the Zoo hosted a Master Plan Peer Review. Several zoo directors from around the country reviewed the site and plans, and were asked to comment on the 4 I I I a j i a proposed redevelopment project. Summaries of their comments are presented in the attached Master Plan Peer Review Summary, November 1997. The local architectural firm of Field Paoli was retained as site architect. The responsibilities of the site architect include the design of Zoo Street, the central visitor service corridor that will transect the Zoo. Field Paoli has extensive experience with public spaces and retail developments. They will lead the design of the new food and merchandise areas of the Zoo and will coordinate the architects that are designing animal exhibits. An organizational chart describing the relationships of the architect and planners, Zoo staff, and the Recreation and Park Commission is attached as the San Francisco Zoo Phase II Masterplan Program Organization. Infrastructure After years of detailed planning, the construction of the new utility infrastructure system is underway. When completed, the new system will be arranged in utility corridors - common underground pathways for water, sewer/drainage, electrical, and natural gas systems. The alignment of these corridors has been planned to allow easy access for maintenance in the future, and to minimize disruption to the existing Zoo during construction. The new system has also been designed to maximize water and energy conservation. Construction bids were initiated in January, and the selected contractor, Ranger/D'Arcy Harty (a joint venture), began construction in June. Much effort has been expended to minimize the impact on Zoo animals and visitors. The utility corridors have been divided into segments to localize construction activity. Work on many of these segments has been scheduled to prevent disturbing animals during sensitive periods, such as breeding seasons. The animals will be monitored to assure their comfort during these times. Construction should be completed in approximately twelve months. The "Move" Projects There are a number of "back of house" facilities that must move before construction can begin on new animal habitats and visitor amenities. Referred to as the "Move" Projects, they include the Animal Resource Center (the ARC), the Education Center, and the Zoo Support Area. Two teams have been retained to design the Move Projects. The Portico Group will be working on the Animal Resource Center, while the San Francisco Bureau of Architecture is designing the Education Center and Zoo Support Area. 5 81 I 1 I I 1 1 1 1 I I 1 I I I II 1 II II 1 1 I 1 1 1 I I I I Master Plan Peer Review Summary November 1997 Prepared by G. Lee and J Aikm Peer reviewers: Doug Myers: Ron Foreman: Clayton Freiheit: Director of Operations, Zoological Society of San Diego President and CEO, The Audubon Institute, New Orleans President and CEO, Denver Zoological Foundation The Zoo Directors reviewed the current Zoo site, Master Plan, and Strategic Plan and were asked to comment on the proposed redevelopment projects. The following is a summary of their comments. The Reviewers were impressed with the concept and quality of the Feline and Avian Conservation Centers They commented that the general visitor should experience this kind of close up encounter with "keepers and conservation^. The site above the ACC was identrfied as perhaps the most scenic panoramic, and memorable due to the fabulous grove of cypress trees and long views to the ocean. Doug Myers noted the importance of maintaining some of the special views, vistas, and general ambiance of the south-southeast part of the Zoo. Many of the existing natural features such as the lake anc large trees create a very strong "landscape"" image and presence that visitors crave. The Reviewers commented very strongly on their belief that the horticultural and landscape ambiance of the Zoo needed considerable enhancement. Many of the existing exhibits already use this to excellent effect. The Visitor Experience The reviewers were unanimous in their assessment of the top three reasons why visitors come to zoos. Extensive research by their institutions has confirmed that the majority of visitors are not generally motivated to come to the zoo to be educated or contribute to conservation. The reviewers did note that if visitors are treated well and comfortable, they are much more likely to support the Zoo and are more receptive to the education/interpretive messages inherent in the mission of zoos. The top three visit drivers: Clayton Freiheit noted the inherent problems that come with expanded new exhibit habitats as part of the "Immersion" concept. Animals are often difficult to see and are quite distant. We need to do much more to create a more active and interesting habitat and a close up, guaranteed view. "The number one request by visitors is to ask the keeper about the animals". Doug Myers says the San Diego Zoo is currently implementing a major overhaul of its entire visitor-staff interface to provide exactly this kind of "encounter" experience as part of a regular visit. Conservation The Site a. A safe Family Experience b. Within an outdoor Park, Garden Setting c. With Animals as part of the Experience and Setting 1 I I I I I I 1 I I I I I I I 1 II I I Clayton Freiheit began this discussion by stating emphatically that Zoo Conservation/Breeding is pnmanly focused upon maintaining a diverse animal collection. The animal collection as an attraction allows zoos to tell the interpretive and educational messages Denver Zoo Conservation Model: Department of Conservation Biology The Denver Zoo has just recently funded a new Deoartment of Conservation Biology, which will focus specifically on Grassland Ecology. Audubon Institute Model: The Survival Center Their primary focus is on reproduction of endangered species. Current examples include pioneering won< in artificial fertilization and surrogate hosts for species such as Tigers hosted by Lions and Bongos hosted by Eland. San Diego Zoo Model: Center for Reproduction of Endangered Species (CRES) The CRES is focused on genetics, virology, and behavior research. The Reviewers commented on the difficulty of telling the story of "Zoo Conservation" as a message for visitors, board members, and the community. Typically, the scientists engaged in this activity are experts in their field, but have a very difficult time describing to nonprofessionals the importance of what they do. Zoo generally does a terrible job of telling their community what they do ss a "conservation" mission. Another problem is the definition. Conservation is an all encompassing term that generally describes a Zoo Mission, but every Zoo defines it differently. Education San Diego Model: They distnbute education programming into each exhibit area and eschew the traditional format of building a formal "school" setting with classrooms. Denver Model: Like San Diego, they have recently reorganized their educational programming to be distributed to exhibit zones, but have retained protected space flexibility designating their classrooms and work spaces as multi-use. A major portion of their Education Center is reserved for other administrative and site support/storage uses. State of the Art Exhibits Emmen, Holland. Clayton Freiheit, (and others) call this the best "Zoo" in the world as a visitor expenence. This 35 acre powerhouse attracts close to 2M visitors and incorporates the best integration of Interpretation by combining a major museum/indoor display sequence with each outdoor animal panorama. The animal panoramas feature habitats with large groupings, such as 12 hippos, or 1 5 elephants. Perhaps their most memorable habitat sequence is a modest 6 acre center habitat featuring large (more than 10) populations of antelope, zebra, giraffe, rhino, ostrich, impala, gazelle, and other species in a mixed habitat that is managed to be "green" by over-seeding every week. The San Diego Zoo. The San Diego Zoo comprises two sites, at Balboa Park and Escondido. Must see attractions include: • Heart of Africa: a 30-acre trek into the Savanna. • Polar Bear Plunge: Underwater habitats featunng salmon and polar bears • Hippo Beach: Underwater river sequence with Hippos • Albert's: High quality Cafe experience overlooking the zoo panorama Wildlife Conservation Park, Bronx, New York. It is the other powerhouse Zoo in America. They continue to create major innovations in exhibit development and underwriting worldwide conservation. Must see attractions include: • Jungle World: the first great tropical forest zoo conservatory. • Himalayan Highlands: still the best exhibit of its kind. • World of Birds: a recently refurbished classic. • Baboon Reserve: Mixed species w/ Baboons and Aoudad in Ethiopia Setting • Gonlla Congo: a 33 million dollar gorilla panorama and education complex. The Audubon Zoo, New Orleans The Swamp Exhibit at the Audubon Zoo features a native flora, fauna, and Cajun artifact sequence. Its depiction of the southern swamp, with black bears, alligators, otters, and waterfowl will probably never be surpassed. Interestingly, this is a very popular exhibit for tourists, who really cannot get close to wildlife in the real swamp. The Woodland Park Zoo, Seattle. This zoo features some of the most innovative immersion and natural habitat exhibits in the world. The Gorilla, Savanna, Elephant, Tropical Forest, and Northern Trail exhibits are AZA award winners and have been the source of many copycats' exhibits throughout the world. Pitfalls The Reviewers have been through this process more than once, and cautioned that it is a "total commitment" for all zoo staff and board. Throughout the process, there will be times when it will be overwhelming and seemingly never-ending. In their experience, time will be the major problem for the Director and his operating staff as they struggle to juggle operations and redevelopment. As a suggestion, the Reviewers cautioned that if there were any staff or board disagreements over the proposed program, philosophy, or schedule, they should be resolved before the first projects get on the drawing board. Ron Forman says this is absolutely a "full plate", and we have no room for dissension further down the process, which is painful enough. The Last Word Doug Myers • Keep a giggle: Maintain a sense of humor to balance the stress • Beer and Pizza: Go out often with participants to get feel for how its going • Lifetime Opportunity: This is a once a lifetime opportunity... Take advantage. • Stay together: Stay focused and on track as a team... Resolve dissension. Clayton Freiheit • Fabulous Opportunity: Build the Momentum • Community Confidence & Mandate: The community has voted. ...take full advantage • Board Members as Asset: Use em!!!!: Bring in the board to be part of the process • Utilize Design in Fund Raising: The design process can be helpful for some donors Ron Forman • Leverage the Public/Private Partnership • Great City to Great Zoo: San Francisco deserves a Great Zoo: Build it • Build the Marketing & Image Momentum: Be aggressive in telling your story • Create an atmosphere where donors compete to support you San Francisco Zoo Phase II Masterplan Program Organization San Francisco Recreation & Park Commission Joint Zoo Committee San Francisco Zoological Society Board of Directors San Francisco Zoological Society Phase II Oversight Committee Zoo Director David Anderson SFZS LEGEND San Francisco Zoological Society SFZS O'Brien Kreitzberg OK Infrastructure Coordinator Maria Jurosek SFZS Zoo History Utility Relocation Program Manager Bob DeLiso OK Program Controls Manage Teams Zoo Curator of Planning & Design John Aikin SFZS SF Zoological Society Board Input Public Input SF Zoological Society Staff Input Docent Input Master Architect Gary Lee CLRdesign Programming Concepts Reviews Site Architect Steven Winkel Field-Paoli Architects Construction Manager Don Alameida Dept. of Public Works Site Design Exhibit Architects CLRdesign Jones and Jones Gty Interfaces City Reviews Gty Approvals Selected Design Assignments Art Commission Construction Administration & Inspection Cost and Schedule Control Reporting Exhibit Design 9 RESPONSIBILITIES TO ANIMALS AND THE CONSERVATION MISSION Animal Management Highlights Primate Discovery Center Terrace Exhibits Years of salt-laden sea breeze took a heavy toll on the steel mesh and beams of the Primate Discovery Center, leaving the structure in need of repainting and repair. We addressed the situation in the terrace exhibits this year. Rather than simply replace the worn materials in exactly the same format, we took the opportunity to make some significant improvements. First, we identified a new type of mesh, which is less obtrusive visually and requires less structure to attach. This allowed us to remove many of the steel crossbeams that were used for attaching the old mesh, and the structure now has a cleaner look. In addition, we were able to get the new mesh in stainless steel, which will stand up better to our coastal climate. Before the new mesh was installed, we moved in large wooden poles to provide a framework that the animals could use to climb on. With these poles connected by smaller wooden horizontal ones, we established a framework that could be festooned with ropes and cargo nets and could support shelving. This has created multilevel opportunities for the primates to climb, rest, and generally utilize the full area of the enclosure, and the result is a greatly enriched environment. The colobus and ruffed lemur exhibits have not yet been renovated. Due to the high cost of this project, we decided to address these enclosures when we renovate the Primate Discovery Center as part of Phase II. Aye-Aye Forest Our ongoing participation in the Madagascar Fauna Interest Group's efforts in conserving their country's wildlife culminated in the placement of a pair of aye-aye at the Zoo. This is the first permanent zoo exhibit of aye-aye and the only zoo exhibit to house a pair of the animals. The Primate Discovery Center's Nocturnal Gallery was extensively renovated to become Aye- Aye Forest, the spacious new home of these rare primates. Three exhibits were combined to create the new enclosure, and it should befit the needs of a prospective breeding couple. Once the pair had settled in, we introduced the dwarf lemurs (previously housed in one of the old exhibits) to the new aye-aye home. All four animals are getting along well and we're hoping for aye-aye babies in the future. Calle's Continuing Medical Care 12 We have finally arrived at a drug mixture and preparation that will allow us to finish treating Calle for tuberculosis. As mentioned last year, Calle, our female Asian elephant, had been rather difficult about taking her medicine, and the veterinary staff had developed breakthrough medical procedures to address her plight. In June, we started treatment with the final six-month drug mixture. After treatment is finished, she will continue with six more months of continuous testing to determine whether she displays any signs of the active disease returning. At that point, if she tests negative, Calle will be considered clinically cured and will no longer pose a threat of TB transmission. Unfortunately, there is no test that can conclusively prove that an animal, or a human for that matter, is completely cured of TB, so Calle will be monitored yearly for the rest of her life in case the disease returns. Lorikeet Attraction Rainbow Landing™ opened in April in time to be a summer hit. The exhibit, a new aviary housing fifty colorful rainbow lorikeets native to Australia, is a welcome addition to the area of the Zoo displaying Australian animals. Zoo visitors are granted a unique opportunity to walk through the landscaped exhibit and feed these small parrots from cups of nectar. The birds, and our guests, appear to be very happy with this arrangement. Summer Programming Over the past few years, we have been expanding the Summer Program concept, which has always been a vital component of the Children's and Insect Zoos, to include areas of the main Zoo. Programs include the Children's Zoo Nature Trail, which employs teenage volunteers as interpreters of live animals to guests at numerous stations, and the Meet- the-Keeper events of the Native American section of the Children's Zoo, and, now, the main Zoo. This year, seven new scheduled events were added to the roster (such as Talk On the Wild Side), bringing the total number to 22. As a result of anecdotal feedback from Zoo visitors, all of the new events provided opportunities for the public to talk to animal keepers. These events were received well by our guests, and we will be adding some exciting new ones next year. If you want to know how to give an elephant a pedicure, why a male koala has a stronger odor than a female koala, or detailed history about one of your favorite animals, visit the Zoo during one of the Meet-the-Keeper or Talk On the Wild Side events. Avian Malaria Avian malaria is a disease that is endemic to native populations of wild birds. As in human types of malaria, mosquitoes transmit it from one bird to another. Most zoos in North America that exhibit penguins in outdoor exhibits have suffered frequent outbreaks of avian malaria in their flocks, but we had been lucky until this year. In the summer of 1997, we experienced the first cases of avian malaria in the penguin flock since 1984. The unusually wet weather has probably been a contributing factor, and it looks as if this year will be worse than last. The expert consensus is that eventually all the birds will get malaria, since they are constantly exposed to some extent. Using preventive medicines 13 could keep the birds free of malaria for a while, but this measure may result in increased severity of the disease when it eventually occurs. Our course of action involves treating the birds that display symptoms, but only using prophylaxis on birds that might be temporarily more susceptible to disease (for example, young chicks whose immune systems are not yet fully functioning). Inevitably we have had, and probably will continue to have, some losses due to the disease. Bald Eagle Program After a rather lackluster first breeding season in the new Avian Conservation Center, the birds have settled in and are producing well. Out of a total of ten eggs laid, eight chicks hatched, and were either placed in wild nests or reared by their own parents and hacked out at sites on the Channel Islands. Ring-Tailed and White-Fronted Lemur Exhibit A trend in zoos is the housing of multiple species in an exhibit. While this is not a new idea, it has become more prevalent as animal staff work to provide a more diverse environment in a larger exhibit, containing the random stimuli that these species would be exposed to in the wild. In keeping with this challenge, we have mixed the white- fronted lemurs with the ring-tailed lemurs. After months of careful planning, some relatively major structural modifications, and a gradual introductory process, the situation has been established and is very stable. The exhibit seems to be a valuable environmental improvement for both species, as well as for our Zoo visitors. Veterinary Highlights As mentioned above, veterinary staff succeeded in developing the necessary two-drug treatment for tuberculosis via suppository. The department also established a joint clinical pathology/research program with San Jose State University, and was featured performing a root canal procedure on "Sandy" the jaguar on an animal dentistry segment for National Geographic Explorer. Surgery was completed on a five-day-old eagle chick by removing an infected yolk sac; this assisted the Avian Conservation Center in achieving its best eagle chick release to Catalina Island since the initiation of the program in 1991. Through the use of e-mail, the vet staff has become a medical resource for Wakuluzu: Friends of the Colobus Trust, an organization with the goal of saving colobus and coastal forest habitat in Kenya. Additionally, the fourth-year veterinary student externship program continues to contribute to veterinary education and has now gone international, boasting students from Canada, England, and France. Infrastructure and Phase II Planning Phase II planning has occupied a significant amount of the animal staff s time. As mentioned in the Partnership Report's discussion on infrastructure, we have finally broken ground on construction projects slated to replace aging water, electricity, sewer, and natural gas lines throughout the Zoo. Anyone who has lived in a house during 14 I I I renovation may well appreciate the complexities of performing this kind of work in a Zoo housing 650 exotic animals (not including the invertebrates in the Insect Zoo) and hosting 875,000 guests a year. We have planned carefully to minimize the impact of construction on our residents and guests, though this project has required the utmost flexibility and dedication on the part of our staff. The next year should see the end of most of the work. AZA Accreditation The collective animal staff, in conjunction with other departments, assisted in the Zoo- wide preparation for AZA accreditation review. We performed maintenance and renovation, and provided data for the AZA application. Special Collections Highlights Special Collections continued its trajectory as a major resource for community involvement, accounting for over 70% of the total volunteer effort at the Zoo. Volunteer hours for Special Collections departments were as follows: Insect Zoo 2,184 Animal Resource Center (ARC) 23,975 Nature Trail (in Children's Zoo) 14,620 Children's Zoo 11,452 Wildlife Theater presentations reached 186, serving an estimated 27,000 Zoo guests. Over 200 youth volunteers presented Nature Trail to 48,000 visitors during the program's 93-day, five-day-per-week summer schedule. Nature Trail was again generously underwritten by a grant from the Koret Foundation. Meanwhile, over 300 Zoomobile presentations took place on 1 63 outreach trips to Bay Area schools and other institutions, reaching 12,250 students. Staff and volunteers in the Children's Zoo and Insect Zoo provided over 400 interpretive programs to an estimated 15,000 members of the public. And animal food sales in the Barnyard were at a record $48,474 for the fiscal year. USDA inspections of all three departments were completed without citation. Planning and design for the new ARC facility occupied a significant amount of staff time, and the Children's Zoo and Insect Zoo worked with the Education department on initial development of the Talk On The Wild Side Program. In its second year, the wetlands lab interpretive program continued to develop complexity as a major feature at the new Children's Zoo entrance. Two hooded mergansers were hand-reared for the first time, and nesting behavior and incubation by the snowy owls also took place for the first time. Four one-year interns and five summer interns received training in Zoo operations, interpretation and animal husbandry. The ARC developed a brochure describing quality pet care; this joined the Backyard Habitat brochure and a composting brochure from SLUG in the second year of a program designed to provide useful take-home information to visitors. And the $10,000 Barnyard graphics package underwritten by American Express was completed. 15 Significant Acquisitions and Dispositions • Siamangs (0.2) were sent to Adelaide • Arawana (1.2) and pacu (0.0.1) died in the aviary pools, cause probably related to water quality, but undetermined • West African crowned crane hatched (0.0.1); did not survive, possibly due to parasite • Aye-aye (1.1) received on loan from Duke University Primate Center • Continuing bird deaths in the aviary, attributed to various causes • Koala (1 .0) euthanized due to lymphoma/lymphocytic leukemia • Magellanic penguins (6.9) sent to Lisbon • Persian leopard (0.1) euthanized due to urinary tract tumor (at 22, she established the longevity record for Persian leopards) • Coyote (1 .0) died of renal failure; female later acquired to pair with remaining male • Bennett's wallaby ( 1 .0) died; last of the species at the Zoo • White tiger (1 .0) died of myocarditis • Black rhino (0. 1 ) on loan to Pittsburgh died, probably of leptospirosis • Black howler monkey (0.1) born, increasing the total number to 1.4; female placed on birth control to restrict growth of the group • Lion (1 .0) euthanized due to advanced kidney disease • Bald eagle chicks (8) hatched; sent out in April, May and June • Harbor seal (1 .0) died due to hepatic carcinoma; last of the species at the Zoo • Donkey (0.1) died; over twenty years in residence at the Children's Zoo • Penguin chicks (0.0.6) hatched • Magellanic penguin eggs (0.0.6) sent to Sea World • Sumatran tiger (0.1) received to be bred to our male; SSP changed recommendation requiring acquisition of another female • Malagasy giant day geckos (2.1) and tomato frogs (0.0.4) received for Primate Discovery Center window exhibit • Kodiac bear (1.0) sent to Roosevelt Zoo • The Animal Resource Center received an armadillo, White's tree frogs, leopard geckos and a Dumeril's boa • The Children's Zoo received a miniature donkey, coyote, coscoroba swan, a pair of mergansers and several ruddy ducks • The Insect Zoo reared the following species during the past year: damselflies, Sri Lankan mantids, Chinese mantids, harlequin bugs, milkweed bugs, angular-winged katydids, lubber grasshoppers, darkling beetles, dermestid beetles, fruit flies, giant thorny phasmids, Thai walking sticks, Australian walking sticks, leaf insects, Trinidad wood roaches, American roaches, Madagascar hissing roaches, carpenter ants, sowbugs, tiger moths, polyphemus moths and swallowtail butterflies. 16 Conservation and Science The Zoo prides itself on its commitment to conservation, both locally and globally. Continued participation in Species Survival Plans (SSPs) provides Zoos not only with much needed representatives of the species, but invaluable scientific information as well. Some highlights of this past year include: • Release of five black and white ruffed lemurs last October. This marked the first successful release of captive-bred lemurs into the wild. The animals adjusted quickly to their new environment, and wandered off into the forest. A great milestone for the Madagascar Fauna Group, headquartered at the Zoo. • Madagascar Fauna Group, in conjunction with Madagascar California Alliance, is supporting a project to build and encourage the use of solar cookers to decrease deforestation in the habitat of the black lemur. • In cooperation with the Zoo Conservation Outreach Group (ZCOG), the Zoo is supporting grassroots conservation initiatives at zoos throughout Latin America. Activities include technology transfer, personnel exchanges, and sister zoo programs, as well as exhibit renovations and educational programs. Since these zoos are situated in regions of great biodiversity, working with them to educate their visitors about environmental issues is extremely important. • Discovering field conservation projects that will be supported as a link to our new exhibits. Investigation is ongoing both locally and in East Africa. • The Conservation and Science department is working hard, with other departments and our planners, to come up with innovative enrichment options for the New Zoo. Our new exhibits will not only enrich our animals' lives with new activities and environments, but will also enrich the visitor - with new ways to get close to the animals, and to interact with them and the staff. We want the visitor to have a new understanding and appreciation, not only of the animals, but also of conservation itself and the Zoo's role as a conservation organization. Work continued in the Conservation and Science department's three primary areas - field conservation programs, scientific research programs, and conservation support activities. For a more detailed examination of these programs, consult the following summary. Field Conservation Programs • The Madagascar Fauna Group • Zoo Conservation Outreach Group • Giant Panda Task Force • Madidi Park Program • Declining Amphibians Task Force • African Savannah • Bay Area Conservation Outreach Program Scientific Research Programs • Relatedness in Colobus Monkeys 17 • The Correlation Among Chronological Age, Dental Age, and Weight in Primates • Aye-Aye Behavior • DNA Bank • Other Studies Utilizing Biological Samples From the Zoo • Student Projects Completed at the Zoo Conservation Support Activities • Educational classes for docents • Public lectures throughout the community about the Zoo's programs • Support and consultation to increase sustainability of operations • Support and consultation relating to research undertaken by our staff • Providing scientific and conservation information as needed to support other departments and programs • Significant support in planning the New Zoo 18 Conservation and Science San Francisco Zoo 1997-1998 Annual Report The Conservation and Science department works in three arenas — field conservation programs, scientific research programs at the zoo, and zoo-based activities which support our conservation and science mission. Field Conservation Programs Madagascar Fauna Group Type of Program: Cooperative Conservation Program Partners: 32 other North American, European and African Zoos Summary: The Madagascar Fauna Group (MFG) was founded in 1988 to involve zoos in conserving endangered Malagasy animals. Madagascar is recognized as one of the most biologically important regions in the world. MFG supports two Malagasy zoos, Pare Tsimbazaza and Pare Ivoloina, via renovations, on-site technical advisors, funding for educational programs and staff training. These zoos are extremely important, widely used sites for educating both local people and tourists about Madagascar's unique environments. MFG funds also support protection of the Betampona Natural Reserve, scientific studies in Madagascar, restocking and rescue projects for endangered animals, captive breeding programs, and continuing educational efforts at zoos in the United States, Africa and Europe. David Anderson is Chairman of the MFG. which is headquartered at San Francisco Zoo. Highlight: This year, the MFG continued its ground-breaking releases zoo-bred black and white ruffed lemurs in the Betampona reserve. The animals have done well, adapting to the local fruits and beginning to interact with the wild ruffed lemurs. Two of the original releases have died - one was eaten by a fossa (a large carnivorous mongoose) and the other suffered a fatal fall. Despite these setbacks, the w ork is thus far a success. A great deal of useful data about adaptation to the wild and the natural history of the reserve has been collected, and the remaining three lemurs are doing well. Four more animals will be released in November of 1998. The goals is for the captive-bred lemurs to interbreed with wild lemurs and become part of the local community of ruffed lemurs, which needs reinforcements to survive. San Francisco Zoo veterinarian Graham Crawford will once again accompany the lemur group to Madagascar and monitor their health once there. In October 1998, San Francisco Zoo keeper Barbara Palmer will travel to Betampona to spend two months as part of the field team. The lemur restocking project is the centerpiece of a larger conservation program for Betampona. which is one of very few remaining tracts of lowland rainforest in a region of great biodiversity. The full program encompasses management of the reserve's natural resources, which include not only the ruffed lemurs but other endangered species from many taxa ~ spectacular frogs, fish, lemurs, lizards, insects and plants. Local community education and activities, including job-creation opportunities, will encourage sustainability and contribute to the long-term protection of the park. Scientific research on flora and fauna endemic to the reserve will aid in conservation planning and monitoring. I I I Zoo Conservation Outreach Group Type of Program: Cooperative Conservation Program Partners: Approximately 60 other North American zoos Summary: The Zoo Conservation Outreach Group (ZCOG) was founded in 1988 as a means to link North American and Central American zoos in cooperative education and conservation projects. In 1994, ZCOG expanded its area of interest to include Mexico. The American tropics are extremely rich in biodiversity and are considered a conservation "hot spot." ZCOG fosters sister zoo relationships to ensure long-term support, offers technical advice and training workshops for Mesoamerican zoo personnel, and sponsors personnel exchanges and meeting attendance. The goal is to assist the transformation of almost 100 Mesoamerican zoos from old fashioned menageries into centers for conserv ation education. David Anderson is ZCOG's founder, and serves on the board of directors. Highlight: This year, ZCOG shipped several hundred pounds of donated equipment and books, some of it from the San Francisco Zoo, to zoos in Latin America. At the request of two Bolivian NGOs and local officials. A ZCOG evaluation team visited Parque Oscar Alfaro (Tarija, Bolivia), and began working with the zoo to upgrade its exhibits and programs. Giant Panda Task Force Type of Program: Cooperative Conservation Program Partners: 24 other international zoos Summary: The Giant Panda Task Force is a committee of the American Zoo and Aquarium Association (AZA). The Giant Panda Task Force contributes funds to support scientific studies of the Giant Panda in the wild, and its conservation. The studies and conservation efforts are carried out primarily by our colleagues in China. The Giant Panda Task Force is also involved in efforts to bring pandas from China to the United States for captive breeding and research. Madidi Park Program Type of Program: Cooperative Conservation Program Partners: Directed by Wildlife Conservation Society, New York. Summary: The Alto-Madidi park is a four million acre area protected in 1995 through the work of the Wildlife Conservation Society. Preliminary biodiversity surveys show that the area rivals any on the planet in terms of species richness. For example, 11% of the bird species in the world can be found in the park. As more is learned, there is little doubt that this will be considered one of the world's finest parks. Future plans, in addition to protecting the park, include scientific studies and ecotourism. Declining Amphibian Populations Task Force Type of Program: International Scientific Research Effort Partners: International Union for the Conservation of Nature/Species Survival Commission Summary: This international task force of IUCN was established in recognition of the alarming decline in amphibian populations worldwide. The task force coordinates and supports international amphibian surveys, as well as research to understand the cause or causes of these declines. African Savannah Project Type of Program: Partners: Summary: This year, the Conservation and Science department continued to investigate African conservation projects which could serve as a field link to the Zoo's upcoming African Savannah Exhibit. Bay Area Conservation Outreach Project Type of Program: Partners: Summary: This year, the Conservation and Science department, in conjunction with the Education department, began to investigate local conservation projects which might serve as a field link to the Zoo's upcoming Entry Plaza/Education Center local focus exhibit. Scientific Research Programs The research programs at the zoo continue to grow, and new systems are being established to track research results and requests for biological samples. The following research projects are either ongoing or were completed this year. Relatedness in Colobus Monkeys Partners: Genetics Laboratory, Texas A&M University and other North American zoos holding black and white colobus monkeys. Summary: This study examines genetic markers in black and white colobus monkeys, and whether these markers can be used to determine relatedness of individuals. If successfully proved, this technique can be used to solve questions of hybridization and relatedness, which must be solved to successful manage and propagate this species in captivity. It is hoped that this technique can also be applied to other old world monkey species. The Correlation Among Chronological Age, Dental Age, and Weight in Primates Partners: Samuel Merritt College and the University of Illinois Summary: Field workers often estimate the age of primates by looking at their teeth; this estimate is called "dental age." Although this estimate is commonly used for wild primates, this is the first study to attempt to validate this method on primates of known age, by comparing observed dental age to chronological age in captive primates. This is an ongoing multi-zoo study which may significantly how we study primates in the wild. Aye Aye Behavior Partners: San Jose State University Summary: Aye Aye Behavior. This undergraduate thesis project documents the behavior of our pair of aye aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) in captivity. It is being undertaken by a student at San Jose State University. DNA Bank Summary: A room-temperature tissue bank has been established to preserve and store samples from the entire collection. These tissues continue to be collected opportunistically and are available to researchers for molecular biology/genetics studies. Other Studies Utilizing Biological Samples from the Zoo Summary: This year, tissue samples have been provided for studies of biodiversity in flies (Diptera), for a graduate laboratory exercise in PCR. for an ongoing study of the potential universality of human primers, for a serosurvey for antibodies to parasites in felids, for a study of prion proteins in marsupials, for characterization of a tumor suppressing RNA, for a study of contaminant-induced immunosuppression in birds, and for phylogenetic structural analysis of the apo-B mRNA editing site. Many other sample requests have been approved and are awaiting opportunities for sample collection. Student Projects completed at the Zoo Summary: Graduate students from San Francisco State University and an intern from Marlboro College conducted short behavioral studies at the zoo as part of their class work Conservation Support Activities The Conserv ation and Science Department provides support for the Zoo's conservation and science mission. These ongoing activities include educational classes for the docents, public lectures throughout the community about the Zoo's programs, support and consultation to increase sustainability of our operations, support and consultation relating to research undertaken by our staff, and providing scientific and conservation information as needed to support other departments and programs. This year's activities include support for planning the new Zoo. RESPONSIBILITIES TO STAFF Staff Development Barbara Kimport was named Director of Development and Capital Campaign. This position is responsible for the planning, organization and direction of all fundraising activities of the Zoo. This includes overseeing the Membership and Special Events departments. Former Associate Curator of Birds John Aikin has become Curator of Planning and Design. His responsibilities include the coordination of the staff planning process for major exhibits, attractions and renovations, and liaison duties between staff and Phase II project management in the development of the New Zoo. Allison Lindquist was named Director of Marketing. She directs the marketing of the Zoo's services and programs and oversees the Public Relations and Graphics department. All Zoo departments cooperated on a facility-wide effort to prepare the institution for AZA re-accreditation. This process, which occurs every five years, involves review of all Zoo operations and exhibits; if successfully completed, the organization receives accreditation by the American Zoo and Aquarium Association. Zoo staff worked to address all issues of the visiting committee's focus, and met with AZA representatives to discuss the facility's management and operations. Zoo staff spent a significant amount of time involved in planning the New Zoo. Various departments gathered and/or provided input on a number of areas currently targeted by Phase II management. Seven summer interns worked in the Animal Resource Center, Children's Zoo, Insect Zoo, and with kids' summer classes and public programming. Year interns in the Animal Resource Center, Children's Zoo, and Insect Zoo assisted with animal husbandry tasks, volunteer management and public programs. Regular General Employee meetings and "Town Hall" meetings continued as implemented. The Society successfully completed negotiations with Teamsters Local 856 on a new contract for Teamster-represented Society employees. Negotiations were also 23 successfully completed on a City-wide master agreement covering civil servants also represented by Teamsters 856. As of September 25, 1998, San Francisco Zoo employment ranked as follows: City and County of San Francisco - full-time: 40 San Francisco Zoological Society - full-time: 90 San Francisco Zoological Society - part-time: 97 TOTAL: 227 24 RESPONSIBILITIES TO THE PUBLIC Education, Volunteering and Outreach The Education department continued work in eight major areas: • public programming • school programs • fee-based classes and workshops for Zoo members and non-members • interpretive planning and graphics content for Zoo exhibits • collaboration with like institutions and organizations (environmental groups, science education groups, etc.) • volunteer and docent services • youth programs • community outreach The department continued to support and/or implement a full range of programs serving close to 200,000 people last year. Our heartfelt thanks go to Leanne B. and George R. Roberts, who so generously supported our youth programs, teacher workshops, classes, and public programs. Public Programming In addition to manning "stations," docents assisted with a number of public programs, including staffing Bonecarts and providing free public walking tours (weekends). Docents and Conservation Interpreters also conducted special "behind-the-scenes" tours every Saturday at 1:00 p.m. (initiation of this program is discussed in the 1997 Annual Report). Teenagers from the Talk On the Wild Side program spent 1373 hours interacting with 41,412 Zoo visitors. Animal management provided youth with training and ongoing support throughout the summer, and the efforts of the keepers (Main and Children's Zoo) not only fostered a positive relationship with the teen volunteers, but greatly enhanced the visitor experience. Many Zoo visitors commented on the professionalism of the keepers and the teenage interpreters. School Programs Tours for school groups, conducted by docents, continue to be the mainstay of the touring program. The ZooMobile program continued to bring live animals to classrooms, senior centers and libraries throughout the Bay Area. Forty percent of this year's clients had 25 I ! booked ZooMobile last year; revenues amounted to $11,160. The majority of presentations (66%) were made to San Francisco schools and other facilities; 23% presentations were made to the Peninsula; 3% to the East Bay; 5% to the North Bay, and 3% to other cities. Free presentations were provided to over 14 separate organizations, and staff member Nicolette Heaphy developed a new lesson for preschoolers and kindergarten students called "All Animals Grow." The Zoo's traveling convention-style exhibit (a poster session exhibit with Zoo biofacts and hands-on activities) made various appearances throughout the Bay Area. Over 1500 people received information about the Zoo and its conservation and education programs. We also assisted the community with teacher workshops, loan material agreements, self- guided tours and lesson plans, and involvement with higher education. Fee-based Classes, Workshops and Activities Summer classes for children 4-1 1 - Zoo School '98 - continued the progress of the past two years. This year we made minor adjustments to the program to reduce expenses and yet keep it attractive to our members. These changes, along with the major changes in scheduling and pick-up/drop-off procedures made in recent years, boosted gross revenues roughly $65,000 (about an 18% increase this year over last). Five children attended on scholarships. Zoo School pricing structures helped in generating new memberships, and over 15% of the children (82) enrolled in summer '98 became new members at the $55 family membership level. The Zoo Teaching Assistant program, initiated last year, increased as expected and provided a unique experience for teens as well as a means of extra supervision for the summer classes. The most exciting new activity for our children is the Group Overnight program, targeting organized children's groups such as scouting, community and church groups. In addition, overnights for 4th-5th grade classes were tested using classes from a San Jose school. Group overnights will continue to be conducted outdoors, but survey responses indicate that this program will truly get off the ground when the new Education Center (as part of the New Zoo) is built. Adult and family programs rose this year, and our newly added Conservation and Science tours reached 674 adults and 90 children, generating $2977 in revenues. Increasing community awareness of these tours remains a goal for the upcoming year. Interpretive Planning and Graphics Content for Zoo Exhibits Education staff provided graphics copy for the lorikeet, aye-aye, PDC and rhinoceros exhibits. Nicolette Heaphy and Marina Shultz served on the editorial board for 26 ZooViews and provided calendar copy for each issue. Education staff reviewed articles and assisted as requested. Diane Demee-Benoit and Marina Shultz attended numerous Planning and Open House meetings on the New Zoo. Much of the year was devoted to research and design for the new Education Center. Staff members from the Oakland, Denver, Woodland Park, Atlanta, Cleveland and National Zoos and the Monterey Bay Aquarium were consulted and their education building blueprints reviewed. Meetings were held with our docents to discuss needs and options. Teacher needs generated by the Zoo WEB surveys brought the "voices" of over 125 educators and school administrators into the planning process. Collaboration with Like Institutions and Organizations We completed the second of five years on the Regional Advisory Board of MASTEP (Mathematics and Science Teacher Education Program). We are working with San Francisco State, San Jose State, City College, Evergreen Valley and San Jose City College; staff from the California Academy of Sciences, Exploratorium, Lawrence Hall of Science, US Geological Survey and others; as well as industry representatives from Intel, Genentech, Sega, and Tandem to provide pre-service teachers and undergraduate students with hands-on teaching opportunities. We continued to participate in a number of educational consortia, including the Northern California Science Education Specialists Group, Cultural Connections, and the Bay Area Environmental Educators Workshop. Volunteer and Docent Services The Zoo's volunteer program is one of the largest continuous programs in San Francisco. Zoo volunteers contribute their invaluable time and are major donors and Zoo advocates in the community. During our busy summer season, over 600 people between the ages of 12-82 volunteer at the Zoo in 12 volunteer projects and for numerous special events. In fiscal year 1997-98, volunteers contributed a total of 72,540 hours to the Zoo. Eighteen volunteer orientations were conducted over the course of the year. Of the 24 1 people who were toured, 73% (177 people) were placed in a Zoo volunteer project. The overall number of volunteers is quite stable. Our registration with local volunteer recruitment organizations, schools and community organizations, as well as our presence on the Internet and our recruitment through Zoo member interest cards, combine to provide the program with a regular influx of new volunteers. Over 200 adult volunteers continued to work in the Children's Zoo, Animal Resource Center, Avian Conservation Center, Insect Zoo, and administrative offices (Development, Membership, Education, etc.). Volunteer Coordinator Nicolette Heaphy recruited volunteers for numerous special events and fee-based programs such as Night Tour (250 volunteers over four nights). 27 ZooRun (122 volunteers), ZooFest for Kids (62 volunteers), Renew the Zoo days (500+ volunteers), and ZooFest (30 volunteers). In addition, volunteers were recruited for numerous small and/or new events including: BikeAbouts, Sex Tours, Boo at the Zoo, Members' Holiday Evening, Adopt-An-Animal Holiday packet assembling, Rainbow Landing™ opening. Member and Major Donor previews, Tiger Awareness Day, and membership drives. The volunteer Docent Council ended the year with a total membership of 211 docents. Sixty-four docents volunteer on weekdays; 59 on weekends, and 8 for the ZooMobile program. Twenty-one docents are on a leave of absence and 60 are no longer active, but support the Council as sustaining members. The 1998 Docent Training Class, coordinated by Cindy Cameron, started with 18 trainees; 16 graduated. Total docent hours for the fiscal year are 7375, including volunteer hours for committee work and special events such as Senior Day(s), ZooFest, Zoo Run, Night Tour, Boo at the Zoo and other events requiring docent assistance. Docents were on stations or tours on 335 days. They spent 1462 hours leading 664 tours, and spent 2631 hours on stations. Additionally, docents spent 378 hours on ZooMobile, and 378 hours assisting with classes. Because the field of conservation science changes so rapidly, the Continuing Education Committee organized brown bag lectures, advanced seminars, and outings to promote current knowledge about conservation issues. Youth Programs Interest in activities for teens has exceeded our capacity in both the Nature Trail and Junior Zoologist programs managed by the Animal Resource Center. With support from Leanne B. and George R. Roberts, we were able to expand educational opportunities for youth through offerings managed by the Education department. The summer of 1997 saw the initiation of two new volunteer programs for teens, Talk On the Wild Side (as discussed in Animal Management Highlights) and Zoo Teaching Assistants. Diane Kisich, the Director of Youth Programs, worked with Animal Management to put together a full schedule of activity-based programs for youth. An "Animals Career" class was offered twice this year, in spring and fall. The Junior Keeper Club for 8-12-year- olds currently has 37 members at the local level and 16 at the national level. Community Outreach The collective impact of the programs discussed above demonstrates the Zoo's critical influence as a community outreach organization. Accessibility remains a key issue for Education staff. Even as our focus shifted to generating revenue, the Zoo maintained a 28 strong scholarship component for all of its educational programs serving both children and adults. For example, thirty-five summer school full scholarships were awarded to low-income families, and the Docent Council initiated an Adopt-A-Family program (Zoo memberships awarded to families in need) as a result of comments heard at the Public Forum. I 29 Public Relations and Marketing Public relations and marketing activities for the Zoo contributed greatly to maintaining attendance this year, despite the 1998 storms. A decline in attendance was attributed to those wet winter months. Advertising campaigns were developed for the Aye-Aye Forest exhibit (bus shelters) and "Cox" the koala cub (print media and radio). Additionally, taxi tops showcased Cox, the gorillas and the Sumatran tigers, and in the spring, the lorikeet aviary. Rainbow Landing™, opened in conjunction with a print, radio and outdoor campaign. The Zoo also produced Spanish and Chinese gate brochures for the second year. Promotional and sponsorship activity was significant, with Ford and the Bay Area Ford Dealers sponsoring the lorikeet exhibit; KGO-TV and KISS-FM Radio sponsoring the 22nd Annual Zoo Run; and Exxon sponsoring Tiger Awareness Day. In April, KOFY-TV ran an educational week-long series on the Meet-the-Keeper program. News coverage was extensive, with notable stories on Calle, the Asian elephant, and her ongoing battle with tuberculosis; exhibit openings (Aye-Aye Forest, Rainbow Landing™); special events (such as Tiger Awareness Day and Sex Tour); and conservation stories (black and white ruffed lemurs released in Madagascar, eagle chick hatchings). We received coverage of births (snow leopard cubs, white kangaroo's joey), hatchings (penguin chicks), and significant deaths (Prince Charles, the white tiger, and Topol, the male lion). The media also focused on the admission fee increase and subsequent public meetings. Nationally, the Zoo was seen on CNN, MSNBC, ABC World News, CBS Up to the Minute, and An American Moment with James Earl Jones. The Zoo was also featured on two National Geographic specials. Tiger Awareness Day was an especially significant event for the Zoo. It heightened awareness of the tiger's precarious predicament in its native habitat and was a cooperative effort between many Chinese and American institutions. The Zoo held its first-ever Public Night Tour, sponsored by KGO-TV and featuring an appearance by the stunt double for the lead in Disney's George of the Jungle. A detailed examination of the print and television coverage for the fiscal year is provided in the Public Relations Activity Summary. 30 PUBLIC RELATIONS ACTIVITY - SUMMARY FISCAL YEAR 97-98 PRINT COVERAGE FY 95-96 118,853,044 FY 96-97 235,704,961 FY 97-98 128,507,712 Though we experienced a decrease in newspaper coverage locally and nationally from last year, we did compare favorably to FY 95-96, exceeding coverage by over 10 million.

Also, 1997 was the year of the bond campaign, and a more conscious effort was made to keep the Zoo in the news strategically every day, instead of staggering news stories throughout the year. In 1998, January through April was spent concentrating solely on the admission fee increase, which unfortunately was negative in nature. In fiscal year 1997-98, significant stories included: — Calle and her tuberculosis treatment (43 stories) — Myrtle, the Mountain Lake swan's stay at the Zoo (19 stories) — Snow leopard cubs debut; named by Supervisor Mabel Teng (10 stories) — Lion cubs named; Joe Montana Day at the Zoo (11 stories) — Aye-Aye Forest (47) ~ Penguin chicks returned to Penguin Island and subsequent journey to Lisbon (10 stories) ~ Lemurs released to Madagascar (7 stories) — Little Puffer taken out of hibernation in Elephant House (2) — Obituaries and death notices: Kay koala (1), Prince Charles (39 stories), and Topol (8) — Pike, the polar bear's 15th birthday (2) — Koala cub "Cox" debut (7) — Missing elephant skull (33 stories) — Mulali and her joey (8 stories) ~ Rainbow Landing Australian lorikeet opening (13) — Eagle chicks debut (12) ~ Tiger Awareness Day (17 stories) And various stories appeared on the Zoo's "rebirth" (8), its admission fee increase (16) and El Nino's effect on the Zoo (7) General calendar listings appeared for: Public Night Tour with appearance by Disney's George of the Jungle stunt double, Zoo Run 98, Sex Tour 98, ZooFest 98, Breakfast with the Bunny, new exhibits, and general attraction listings.

The City provided a $4,000,000 management fee in accordance with the Lease Agreement. The Zoological Society reimbursed the City for civil service salary and benefit expenses, forestry and heavy equipment services provided by the Recreation and Park Department. Total expenditures for Zoo operations, renovations, and new construction were $17,267,088 compared to $16,080,128 in 1997. The Zoo generated a $46,180 operating surplus in 1998 compared to a budget of $18,454, and an operating deficit of $524,900 in 1997. General and administrative expenses were 6.1%, or $1,319,264. Zoo revenues increased over the prior year in every major area with the exception of Visitor Services. Total revenues increased from $15,282,109 in 1997 to $21,558,272 in 1998. Annual giving continues to grow; in 1998, we received $3,589,595 in annual gifts, compared to $3,231,869 in 1997. The Campaign for the New Zoo ended the fiscal year with gifts and written pledges to be paid over the next three to five years of $12,288,404. Over 28,000 Bay Area individuals and families supported the Zoo as members. Attendance for 1998 reached 826,518, compared to 870,962 in 1997. The reduction is attributed to the excessive rain of the past season. 35 Animal Management Species and Specimen Inventory Fiscal Year 1997-1998 ! i rt Start Date: an 1997 Status of All Classes Inventory - Net Specimen Counting - Groups San Francisco Zoological Gardens Report End Date: 30 Jun 1998 lass , Order Family ISCBS/OSTBICHTHYBS CHARACI FORMSS SSRRASALMIDAB SALMON I FORMBS SALMONIDAB PBRCIPORMBS CICBLIDAB Orders in this class Families in this order Species in this family 3 lass summary for: PISCBS/OSTEICHTHYES Orders in this class (i of collection): 3( 50.00 Families in this class [\ of collection): 3( 50.00 Species in this class (i of collection): 4( 50.00 NPHIfilA ANDRA DISCOGLOSSIDAE lass summary for: AMPHIBIA Orders in this class (\ Families in this class (I Species in this class (* of collection) of collection) of collection) 1( 16.67V) 1( 16.671) 1( 12.501) ns GALLI FORMES PHASIANIDAB PSITTACIFORMBS LORIIDAB lass summary for: AVBS Orders in this class ('< of collection) Families in this class (V of collection) Species in this class [\ of collection) 2( 33.33V) 2( 33 .33%) 3( 37.501) umber of different umber of different imber of different umber of different classes: 3 orders: 6 families: 6 species: 8 ISIS/ARKS 3 Page 1 20 Oct 1998 Summary using Net Specimen Counting Specimens Owned Specimens Owned Specimens Not Owned at Institution on Loan Out on Loan In status 1 Jan 1997 57. 0. 0 = 57 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 Jirths 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 )ther Acquisitions 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 deaths 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 [Deaths < 30 Days of Birth ] 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 [Deaths < 30 Days of Other Acq.] 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 )ther Dispositions 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 status 30 Jun 1998 98. 0. 0 = 98 0. 0. 0 = 0 0. 0. 0 = 0 "otal Specimens Owned by San Francisco Zoological Gardens: 98. 0. 0 = 98 jegend - Transaction Counting 1. 1. 1 = specimen counts as males. females. unknown sex • 1. 1. 1 = specimens on Loan Out from San Francisco Zoological Gardens -1.1.1 = specimens on Loan In to San Francisco Zoological Gardens jegend - Net Collection Inventory Counting 1. 1. 1 = specimen Owned and On Site as males. females. unknown sex -1.1.1 = specimens Out On Loan from San Francisco Zoological Gardens f 1. 1. 1 = specimens In On Loan to San Francisco Zoological Gardens Status of All Classes Inventory - Net Specimen Counting - Groups rt Start Date: San Francisco Zoological Gardens Report End Date: an 1997 30 Jun 1998 Status Other Deaths ( < 30 Days ] Other Row Status tification 01/01/1997 Births Acquis 'n Births Acquis' n Dispos'n Change 30/06/1998 LIFORMBS AS I AN I DAE AVO CR I STATUS coiinoa peafowl 1 . . 1 DM I DA MSLBAGR I S (no Subsp) helmeted guineafowl 14 . . 14 TTACIFORMES RIIDAE RICHOGLOSSUS HAEMATODUS HABMATODOS Group count active during the report period, see Taxon Report for transaction details, rainbow lory 0 . . 50 ISIS/ARKS 3 Page 3 20 Oct 1998 Report Start Date: 1 Jan 1997 Identification Status of All Classes Inventory - Net Specimen Counting - Groups San Francisco Zoological Gardens Status Other Deaths [ < 30 Days ] Other Row 01/01/1997 Births Acquis'n Births Acquis'n Dispos'n Change Report End Date: 30 Jun 1998 Status 30/06/1998 AMPHIBIA ANURA DISCOGLOSSIDAB BOMBINA ORIENTAL IS oriental fire-bellied toad ISIS/ARKS 3 Page 2 20 Oct 1998 !
