Dateline: February 23, 2024. Rossifari Zoo News is back with a round up of the latest news in the world of zoos, aquariums, conservation, and animal weirdness!
We yet again open with some breaking news, this time about panda bears at the San Diego Zoo!
We then get back on track with our births and deaths. We talk about new penguins in Memphis and Kansas City, a new giraffe in Fort Worth, a new rhino at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, a new tamandua at the Nashville Zoo, and a new gorilla at the London Zoo! In deaths, we say goodbye to a sea lion at the Pittsburgh Zoo, a young giraffe at Seneca Park Zoo, and Tonka, the second oldest male Sumatran orangutan in human care.
We then move on to our other Zoo News stories, including multiple panda stories, an update on polar bear breeding that is really exciting, a look at what is going on with the SeaQuest brand of aquariums, why coins in exhibit water are a bad idea, and more!
In Conservation News, we talk about a new species, more good news for rhinos, a really dumb reason for a proposed law in Florida, and a story that is about cloned sheep that you have to hear to believe! All this and more!
In Other News, we talk about a surprising human death and bats singing love songs like upside-down Paul McCartneys.
