SEVENTIETH ANNUAL REPORT.

In submitting its Seventieth Annual Report, the Council
of The Royal Zoological and Acclimatisation Society of Vic¬
toria has pleasure in announcing that attendances and takings
at the Zoological Gardens during 1933 compared favorably
with the previous year and exhibited a slight but extremely
welcome improvement.

The Council was thereby enabled to suspend the ration¬
ing of its working staff (a measure inexorably imposed at
the outset of the depression) and to make payments to the
State Treasury aggregating i/50, on account of the Society’s
outstanding interest obligations on sums advanced in earlier
years by the Government of Victoria for expenditure on the
Council's approved programme of reconstruction and exten¬
sion works. The aforesaid payments to the Treasury unfor¬
tunately disabled the Council from proceeding to complete
its long interrupted building programme and limited its con¬
structing operations to the provision of indispensable public
conveniences, which included two modern and commodious
shelter sheds in replacement of a number of old and out-worn
buildings which had long ceased to serve effectively the pur¬
poses of their erection.

The Council was obliged, during the year, to enclose one
hippopotamus pond and paddock with a strong framework of
chain wire netting in order to preserve the life of the
Society’s remaining adult hippopotamus—one fine specimen
having been destroyed by an apparently deliberate act of
vandalism following similar occurrences in Western Australia
and South Australia. It is deplorable to reflect that the
community contains individuals capable of such insenatc
cruelty. Other necessary works of renewal and improve¬
ment carried out during the year included the substitution
of a fine new lawn for the obsolete pond paddock adjoining
the new flight aviary and the reformation, channelling and
gravelling of the main footpaths.

The Council records with a feeling of deep regret the
demise of one of its honoured and esteemed colleagues in the

8

person of Mr. Charles William Maclean, who had been
associated with this Society since 1909, during which period
until his lamented death in January, 1933, he occupied the
distinguished office of President in 1910 and 1920-1922, and
that of Vice-President 1912-1917.

The Council is happy to report that the Society's valuable
collection of fauna is in excellent condition, that all its
property and plant have been maintained in good order, and
that the utility and appearance of the Gardens have been
improved.

Steps are being taken to give effect to the proposal for
the erection of a new main entrance to the Gardens and the
assistance of the Government has been sought in this direc¬
tion.

The revenue from gate receipts amounted to 76,105/9/11,
as compared with 75,612/17/7 received from this source in
1932.

The Elephant, Donkey-carriages and Motor-railway con¬
tinue to be popular with the children. The Elephant carried
during the year 47,377, the Donkey-carriages 42,779 and the
Motor-railway 94,597.

The total number of visitors who paid for admission to
the Gardens during the year amounted to 293,570, as com¬
pared with 270,530 in 1932. Children from Charitable Institu¬
tions and State and Primary Schools, who are admitted free
of charge, are not included in the above figures.

During the year the Council purchased and exchanged
the following

2 Golden Rhesus Monkey

2 Gophors.

il Prairie Marmots

3 Canadian Porcupines

2 Snapping Turtles

3 Frilled Lizards
1 Tiger Cat

4 Tasmanian Devils
3 Platypuses

18 Tasmanian Rosellas

1 Native Companion

2 Adjutants

2 Pondicherry Vultures
2 White Common Peafowl
5 Bar-headed Geese
2 Canada Geese
2 Blue Geese
2 Eire-back Pheasants
2 Reeve Pheasants
2 Paradise Ducks

besides Kangaroos, Wallabies and other small native animals
and birds.

The following stock was born in the Gardens in 1933: —
6 Entellus Monkeys 4 Indian Wolves

2 Rhesus Monkeys 3 Brown Bears

2 Lions 1 Hippopotamus

i Indian .Antelope
1 Rusa Deer

D

1 Black Leopard

2 Woodchucks

1 Sable Antelope

as well as other small native fauna.

The Council tenders its thanks to the Director, Mr.
Andrew Wilkie, and to the Secretary, Mr. Hugh G. Turner,
for their able and loyal services, also to Dr. W. '1'. Kendall,
Honorary Consulting Veterinary Surgeon, and Mr. Hector
Kendall. B.V.Sc., for the care they have bestowed upon the
animals. It desires, too, to thank its friends for donations of
animals and birds; the Press for the publicity it has so
generously given the Gardens; the British India Steam Navi¬
gation Company for valuable services rendered, and the
Police for the help and protection they have at all times
willingly afforded.

For and on behalf of the Council,

AMBROSE PRATT,

President

PROCEEDINGS AT ANNUAL MEETING.

The Seventieth Annual Meeting of the Royal Zoological
and Acclimatisation Society of Victoria was held at the
office of the Society, Zoological Gardens, on Tuesday, 27th
February, 1934, at 3 p.m.

Present: Ambrose Pratt, Esq., President (in the Chair),
Dr. W. T. Kendall, Dr. Brooke Nicholls, Hon. J. Humc-Cook,
L. J. Levy Esq., A. V. Galbraith Esq., D. Picking Esq. and
the Director.

Apologies for absence were received from Professor Sir
W. Colin MacKenzie, K.B., M.D., Dr. Paul G. Dane, Hon.
J. G. Membrey and F. Lewis Esq.

The Secretary read the notice convening the meeting.

The Minutes of the sixty-ninth Annual Meeting, held
28th February, 1933, were read, and they were confirmed on
the motion of Mr. Levy, seconded by Dr. Kendall.

Dr. Kendall moved: “That the Report and Financial
Statement of the Council for the year 1933, be taken as
read.” Seconded by Mr. Galbraith, and carried.

Mr. AMBROSE PRATT: "1 have the honour to move
that the Report and Financial Statement be received and
adopted. I need scarcely point out to members that we
have passed through a very devastating experience, probably
the worst depression in the history of the State and certainly
the worst depression the Society has experienced in the
seventy years during which it has been functioning. We have
been helped to survive by the generous public support we
have received and also by the help extended to us by the Press.
Of late we have observed signs of a lifting of the depression
that have been reflected in recently increased attendances at
the Society's Gardens and, consequently, in an improvement
in the finances of the institution, which has been a great cheer
to all concerned in the administration of its affairs. We look
forward hopefully to better times and to an enlarged support.
We are now entering the Centenary year of Victoria’s history
and we propose to signalise that year by the development
of certain aspects of our work in a novel and hitherto unex-
ploied direction. It has long been a matter of reproach
that visitors to the Commonwealth have been unable to see
anywhere in one place in any part of Australia a truly
representative collection of the peculiar birds and animals that
are exclusively indigenous to this country. We believe that
such a collection nowhere yet exists and we propose, as our

PAINTED STORKS.

11

contribution to Victoria’s centenary celebrations, to remedy
that lack so that visitors will be able to examine at close
range in one great special enclosure, a thoroughly represen¬
tative collection of the unique forms of life that are to be
found only in Australia. We are now actively engaged in the
work of preparation and we hope that the new section will
be completed before October next. In addition to the pro¬
vision of accommodation for the more common types of our
fauna, we propose to make special arrangements for the
Platypus to be exhibited in conditions closely simulating its
natural state. The great success that has attended the ex¬
periments of Mr. Robert Eadie, of Badger Creek, has en¬
couraged us to undertake this work with confidence. It is
our intention to adopt and in certain details to improve upon
the discoveries of Mr. Eadie and if all goes well no great
time will elapse before visitors from abroad and residents
of Australia may, at any time they care to come to the
Gardens observe and study for themselves the strange habits,
properties and characteristics of this strange little creature,
the most amazing of all Nature’s paradoxes. We have
thought it necessary to place the new special Australian de¬
partment in charge of a thoroughly competent authority.
Mr. David Eleay, whom we have appointed, is a Bachelor of
Science who has specialised in the Study of Nature. He has
an established reputation as a naturalist and has contributed
many valuable articles to the Scientific Press on the Eauna
of Australia, both at home and overseas. It will be Mr.
Elcay’s duty not merely to administer his special department
but to treat and handle and care for the animals in his con¬
trol in such a manner that they will be completely happy in
their captivity. We are all very proud to know that our
Zoo has established a record amongst all the Zoological col¬
lections of both hemispheres for the longevity of its inmates.
We have the lowest death-rate of any Zoo in the World and
this is predominantly due to the fact that we have provided
such conditions in our Gardens as ensure the maximum of
comfort, health and happiness to each individual creature in
our care. In addition to Mr. Fleay’s duty to protect the
health and comfort of his charges, it will be part of his task
to lecture at stated periods to visitors, young people par¬
ticularly, on the exclusive fauna of this country—to the end
that our Zoo may become an even more important centre of
educational influence than in the past, and extend and in¬
crease the knowledge of the Australian people concerning

12

their own wonderful natural heritage. We hope also, in
course <>l time, to equip the new section with a representa¬
tive collection of Australia’s beautiful flora.

It is pleasing to note the presence here to-day of Mr.
Douglas Picking, President of the Avicultural Society, who
has very kindly promised me the co-operation of his Society
in the development our new department. On.behalf of the
Council 1 thank him most cordially for his promised help,
which we shall most gratefully accept. I have nothing fur¬
ther to add, except to tender the hearty thanks of the
Council to our able Director. Mr. Wilkie, for the wonderful
work he has done in the Gardens during the past vear, and
indeed in all previous years since hi. Directorate commenced.
I thank also our able old fellow-councillor, Dr. Kendall, and
his son, Mr. Hector Kendall, for the unstinted care they have
bestowed throughout the year upon the collection. I have
much pleasure in moving the adoption of the Report and
Financial Statement.”

Mr. L. J. LEVY: "Mr. President and gentlemen, I have
much pleasure in seconding the motion for the reception and
adoption of the Report and Financial Statement. The Presi¬
dent’s statement has dealt fully with the position. The Re¬
port and Financial Statement give you a full and accurate
statement ol the facts. I can add nothing to the excellent
statement that the President has made with regard to the in¬
tentions of the Council in connection with the Australian
section that is to be established except that 1 feel absolutely
certain that with the number ol visitors who will be attracted
to the Gardens during the Centenary year nothing will make
such a lasting impression as the form of entertainment you
propose to offer them, and when vou add the services of an
enthusiastic scientist, who is also a skilled lecturer, 1 venture
to say that we can rely on a lull measure of public support
in our endeavour to provide something particularly interest¬
ing and instructive for Centenary visitors,”

Mr. DOUGLAS PICKING: "Recently at a meeting of
the Avicultural Society, ol which I am President, after a dis¬
cussion had arisen regarding I lie breeding and successful
propagation ol Australian birds and native fauna in general,
I stated before our meeting that it would be lilting for mem¬
bers to work in closer co-operation with the Zoo. For a long
time I have been advocating that we get in closer touch with
our Melbourne Zoo. The Avicultural Society of Victoria is
il small body but in England it is a strong force, having for

i 5

its Patron King George and numbering amongst its hundreds
of members eminent people and leaders of English Society.
The English Society is in close touch with the London Zoo
and the editor of the “Avicultural Magazine” is Mr. D. Seth-
Smith, of the Zoological Society, Regent’s Park. In my
opinion, although people do show a great deal of interest in
our Zoo and the Press gives great assistance, there is still
too much laxity. There is only one Melbourne Zoo and it
behoves everyone to give this Zoo Support. A great deal has
been said about a wild zoo in the hills. This is quite in order,
provided that the money for its establishment on sound lines
is available and that its object is to breed and then propa¬
gate, not just to have enclosures to put stock in and allow it
to care for itself. The scheme is going to be a bigger one
than it appears on paper and can easily cost many thousands
of pounds before it actually starts. Then if it is not a sanc¬
tuary and propagation area run on the right lines, it will
only be another Zoo to detract from the already established
Melbourne Zoo. There are ways in which sanctuaries could
be run (and we want all that we can get for the sake of our
wonderful fauna) that would draw a good deal of attention
to the Zoo and at the same time be of much benefit to the
country. I have close on one thousand acres where 1 have
been endeavouring to build up a Fauna Park in which I could
breed and propagate native stock and useful varieties of
introduced Pheasants and Partridges, and all along I have
thought, and have said at our meetings, that we ought to give
more attention to our Melbourne Zoo, for, however much the
Zoo grows, there is ample scope for sanctuaries efficiently
run, where stock can breed, assisted by competent keepers.
The experience gained on the large areas would be of
material benefit to the Zoo, particularly in a way of which
1 could give further details later. It has been of great in¬
terest to hear this afternoon that Mr. David Fleay is to be
in charge of a native fauna section to be established in the
Gardens. In my connection with the Avicultural Society, I
would like to say that, as a Centenary gesture, it would be a
good thing if several of our leading citizens became Life
Members of the Zoological Society. The money thus
obtained could be allotted to erecting cages of suitable design
with the name-plate of the donor on each and the Avicultural
Society might do all in its power to fill those enclosures with
birds actually bred in similar cages. Then, when that is done,
anyone who has found out anything of interest might pass

14

the information on. For instance, Mr. Fleay may have some
difficulty with different kinds of fauna and I would be only
too glad to help him in any way 1 could, that is if he needed
it. I have actually seen recently the birth of the marsupial
and have taken photographs of the young one travelling to
the pouch. I would be pleased to pass that information on
to Mr. Fleay. In the case of small birds, Mr. Nicholson, of
London, in speaking of the birds he had seen in the Avicul-
tural Society’s aviaries here, expressed surprise that he had
not seen those birds at the Zoo, so 1 think it is tip to the
Society to supply the Zoo with the birds referred to. It is
done in England and should be done here. Regarding propa¬
gation of game-birds, 1 would also gladly pass oil any know¬
ledge on the subject that I possess. Our Melbourne Zoo
probably needs at the present time all the help we can give
it.”

Mr. AMBROSE PRATT: "On behalf of the Council 1
would like to once more express our appreciation of your
kind offer of the co-operation of your Society in connection
with our proposed new collection. On the other hand, we
assure you that we shall be only too glad to co-operate with
you in every way possible for the advancement of your
Society’s interests. It has long been my' view that all the
scientific societies in the State should enter into closer touch
with one another, and 1 feel perfectly sure that such an as¬
sociation would be of very great benelit to all concerned.”

The motion was put and carried unanimously.

The retiring members of the Council, in accordance with
Regulation 2, namely, Louis J. Levy Esq., Professor Sir W.
Colin MacKenzie, K.B., M.D., and Dr. Brooke Nicholls, were
re-elected, no nominations having been received.

Hon. J. Hume-Cook moved: "That Mr. Ambrose Pratt lie
re-elected President for the ensuing year.” Seconded by Dr.
Nicholls, and carried by acclamation.

Mr. AMBROSE PRATT: “Mr. Humc-Cook, Dr. Nicholls
and gentlemen, I have much difficulty in expressing my deep
sense of appreciation of the great honour you have once more
paid me in re-electing me as President. 1 promise you that
1 shall do all within my power to further the interests of the
Society.”

1'he retiring V ice-Presidents, namely, Professor Sir W.
Colin MacKenzie, K.B., M.D., and Hon. J. G. Membrey were
unanimously re-elected, as was also the retiring Hon.
Treasurer, Hon. J. Hume-Cook.

15

Hon. J. HUME-COOK: “I desire to move a cordial vote
of thanks to the Press. I would like to indicate the pleasure
that we, as a Council, feel at the manner in which the Press
has treated this institution during the past twelve months.
In fact, ever since my connection with this body I have felt
personally, and I think I speak for the rest of the Council,
that we are greatly indebted to the Press for the support
which the Gardens receive in the way of visitors, who help
to keep the Society going. Since the new proposal was
mooted about a Platvpusary we have had all kinds of notice
from the Press as to when it is to be started and how soon
it will be open for inspection. When it is explained to over¬
seas and other visitors that they can see the most unique
animal in the world, I feel sure that there will be a con¬
siderable improvement in the attendances. 1 have much
pleasure in saying again, quite sincerely, that we do appreci¬
ate most heartily indeed the very great and continued assist¬
ance the Press of Victoria gives to this great public institu¬
tion.” Seconded by Mr. Levy, and carried unanimously.

Mr. A. V. GALHKAITI1: “Gentlemen, it gives me very
great pleasure indeed to move a vote of thanks to our Presi¬
dent. Mr. \mbrose Pratt, who is in the Chair to-day. We all
admire his enthusiastic support of this institution, which is
of great educational value to the community. Mr. Pratt’s
enthusiasm is reflected in many ways throughout the institu¬
tion and 1 wish to place before you a resolute n to the effect
that we desire to move a very hearty vote of thanks to him.
Long may lie be spared to carry on his splendid work.”
Seconded by Mr. Levy and carried by acclamation.
