Rossifari Zoo News 4.26.24 - The Badger and Coyote are Besties Edition!

Rossifari Podcast - Zoos, Aquariums, and Animal Conservation

Dateline: April 26, 2024. Rossifari Zoo News is back with a round up of the latest news in the world of zoos, aquariums, conservation, and animal weirdness!
Our Headline Story of the Week is a follow up about the San Francisco Bonus Episode last week, including a discussion of some follow ups and a big announcement from the zoo about panda bears.
We then get to our births for the week, which include exciting additions at Busch Gardens with some amazing help, the Nashville Zoo, Pueblo Zoo, the Staten Island Zoo, the Dallas Zoo, the Memphis Zoo, Zoo Tampa, the Kansas City Zoo and Aquarium, Potawatomi Zoo, Chattanooga Zoo, a huge birth at Brevard Zoo, and the Cincinnati Zoo!
We say goodbye to some beloved animals headlined by two wonderful red pandas that I loved dearly, Betsy and Scout. We also say goodbye to Karen, an ostrich at the Topeka Zoo, Fred the tegu at Capron Park Zoo, Scruffy the sun bear at the Honolulu Zoo, the oldest panda in Japan, and more.
We then move on to our other Zoo News stories, including another opportunity to vote for some facilities you might love, a conservation success story from The Wilds, amazing stories about helping animals at Central Park Zoo and the Cincinnati Zoo, followups on the young lion that is getting help at Lincoln Park Zoo, the gorilla introductions at Cleveland, and the Miami SeaQuarium lease, and then a bunch of quick hits including stories from Rolling Hills Zoo, The Desert Museum, the Berlin Zoo, Brookfield Zoo, the Louisville Zoo, the Columbus Zoo, the Toronto Zoo, and the Tulsa Zoo. Then we end this section with a great example of transparency from Woodland Park Zoo.
In Conservation News, we talk about an investigation into where plastic bags go when they get recycled, the lengths one country went to to stop a single invasive predator, a look at the current global coral bleaching event, and people being idiots with animals for social media credit.
In Other News, we talk about coyotes and badgers being besties and an elephant on the loose.
