Finding the Wildlife Hero in You!
SAVING AND PROTECTING WILDLIFE is at the core of everything we do here at San Diego Zoo Global. In this month’s issue, you will read about some of our critically important conservation issues at home and abroad.
!e timing could not be more perfect, since three years ago this month, the San Diego Zoo Global Wild-life Conservancy program was launched. !is program provides essential funding for our conservation proj-ects by enlisting the support of Wildlife Heroes—our monthly donors—from across the globe.
I am delighted to tell you that we now have more than 2,000 Wildlife Heroes from over 20 countries. From helping save giant pandas in China and polar bears in the Arctic to protecting elephants in Botswana, these wonderful individuals are helping change the future for wildlife for just pennies a day.
I want to personally thank all of our current Wildlife Heroes. You truly are making a di"erence for the animals that need you most! And I would also like to invite the rest of you—our Zoo family—to #nd the Wildlife Hero in you and join us today. If you are interested in becoming a Wildlife Hero, please call Sarah Wagner in our Development Department at 619-557-3914, or visit us at endextinction.org.
I could not be more proud of our conservation work, and I look forward to the future with great hope. Together, we can end extinction!

4 ZOONOOZ Q NOVEMBER 2014
Can you believe how fast the year has gone by? Here we are in November—with holiday cheer just around the corner! At San Diego Zoo Global, we
have much to celebrate this holiday season, with many conservation successes, our new vision to lead the fight in ending extinction launched, the opening of the magnifi-cent Tull Family Tiger Trail at the Safari Park, and lots of exciting planning for the Zoo’s centennial in 2016 getting
underway. We’re giving thanks for that and so much more this !anksgiving, and we’d love to have you join us at the Zoo or the Safari Park for one of our wonderful !anksgiving Dinners (look for the information in this issue). In December, we’ll be ringing in the Zoo’s joyous holiday celebration, Jungle Bells presented by California Coast Credit Union, with holiday lights, music, entertainment, visits with Santa (through December 25), and, of course, encounters with our amazing animals. Members can enjoy a special preview on December 12, and then Jungle Bells opens to the public on December 13 and continues through January 4, 2015. I hope you’ll have a chance to come enjoy the festivities with us during this “most wonderful time of the year!”

Just remembering the anticipation and the long wait to see Gao Gao when he
first went on exhibit for the first time. It was awesome. So very grateful for Panda Cam and of course the information blog. We can see and hear about our pandas any time we want with the flick of a switch. Priceless.NancyB San Diego
I love watching this group [on Ape Cam]. !e little [orangutan] is so
adorable. Yesterday mom was cradling Aisha and swinging. !en they had a little rope climbing lesson. !en mom hid under the burlap and Aisha was right above her hanging on practicing her lessons. !ank you for bringing so much joy to my life.Lisa in Maine
I had an opportunity to visit the Safari Park and see the gorillas.… Winston

Anthropologist Margaret Mead’s words continue to be inspirational, especially when it comes to wildlife conservation. At this point in hu-man history, the challenges presented in saving the Earth’s endan-gered species are undeniably daunting, but that’s where commitment, collaboration, and a true love of wildlife play a vital role in making a di!erence. As San Diego Zoo Global heads toward its 100th year, our new vision is to lead the "ght to end extinction. We are fortunate to have the support of our members, donors, sponsors, partners, and vis-itors to work toward this audacious goal, since we certainly cannot do it alone! Working together, we can create a hopeful future for the next generation and the plants and animals that need our help.
As a conservation organization, San Diego Zoo Global is commit-ted to the science of saving endangered species worldwide and to in-spiring passion for nature. Our innovative and multidisciplinary ap-proach brings people and groups together to collaborate on solutions, with projects that take place locally and in more than 35 countries around the world. #roughout our history, we have aided in the con-servation of three rhino species, mountain yellow-legged frogs, Ha-waiian birds, Arabian oryx, Przewalski’s horses, Galápagos tortoises,
African elephants, Andean condors, Grevy’s zebras, South African cheetahs, Paci"c pond turtles, Ugan-da gira!es, and many other imperiled species.
For instance, just 20 years ago it was thought that the giant panda could not be saved. Its numbers were plum-meting, its habitat was shrinking, and people knew little about this species’ behavior and reproduction. But years of collaboration be-tween scientists at our Institute for Conservation Research and their Chinese counterparts, as well as observing and learning from our pandas at the Zoo, have led to the successful breeding of pandas in managed-care facilities and helped move this much-loved animal away from extinction. Now, the population of giant pandas has in-creased to 300 in zoos and breeding centers, a number that can sus-tain genetic diversity for the species for the next 100 years.
Similarly, San Diego Zoo Global has made major contributions toward saving the California condor from extinction. From a popu-lation of only 22 birds in the 1980s to more than 400 today—half of which have been released into or hatched in the wild—these North American birds have made a magni"cent comeback and have re-gained their rightful place in the skies. Our researchers were instru-mental in developing ways to collect and incubate condor eggs, raise chicks using condor-looking puppets, introduce pairs for breeding, and acclimate and release birds into the wild. #rough controversy,

setbacks, and uncertainty, we didn’t give up, pursuing the scien-ti"c solutions that did, in fact, save a species from what seemed like a determined fate.
#roughout our organization’s history we have also played a major role in conservation by successfully breeding endangered species at the Zoo and Safari Park. Our e!orts have increased the population numbers for some of the rarest animals in the world. #ese include primates like the lion-tailed macaque, western low-land gorilla, bonobo, and Sumatran orangutan; birds such as the harpy eagle, Micronesian king"sher, African open-billed stork, and brown kiwi; mammals like the scimitar-horned oryx, Chi-nese dhole, Somali wild ass, Sumatran tiger, and clouded leop-ard; and reptiles and amphibians such as the Fiji banded iguana, Panamanian golden frog, and Brother’s Island tuatara. Breeding endangered species has long been a focus of our organization, and it continues to provide us and our partners and supporters with purpose, direction, and inspiration.

We continue to look ahead, working with other conservation groups and researchers to determine where our e!orts can make an impact in saving wildlife. #e crisis of poaching and habitat loss that elephants and rhinos are facing is one area that all conservationists agree is in dire need of attention. We are working with partners in Botswana for African elephants and in India and Indonesia for rhi-nos to "nd ways to keep them safe, determine their needs, and pro-tect their habitat, in the hopes of halting the frightening population declines. Tigers, too, are in critical need of help and protection, and we are working with researchers in Indonesia to support the patrol and maintenance of wildlife parks where Sumatran tigers can escape poaching and human persecution.
#ese are just a few examples of the conservation e!orts that San Diego Zoo Global is involved in around the world. In honor of the San Diego Zoo Global Wildlife Conservancy, this ZOONOOZ cal-endar for 2015 highlights 12 of the species we are working to help save. We hope you enjoy this year of beautiful animal photos, and we salute you for all your e!orts in supporting—and practicing—con-servation on behalf of the wildlife we all love. Q
You Can Be a Hero for WildlifeIt’s the collaborative e!orts of all of us together that will make a di!erence in fighting against species extinction and creating a fu-ture in which people and wildlife can thrive together—and you are a vital part of that. To discover compelling conservation sto-ries and find out how your support impacts the survival of spe-cies across the globe, visit the new San Diego Zoo Wildlife Con-servancy website at endextinction.org. By joining the cause as a Hero for Wildlife for less than a dollar a day, you will be helping to protect and save endangered animals, ensuring they continue to be part of our world for generations to come. "ank you!

When you !rst meet the Millards, you know immediately that they are true wildlife lovers. “We sincerely value all animals, from the magni!cent to the slithery—all
deserve our respect and contribute to the balance of nature,” Carol said. And then you learn that Carol’s parents also had a “deep and abiding love for the San Diego Zoo,” becoming Founder’s Circle members, just as Carol and Dick are today.
Although they are not native San Diegans, Carol came here in the early 1960s with her family and became a social worker. She fol-lowed that with working as a tour guide and a yoga instructor, while
Dick was stationed here with the U.S. Navy for about one year and later worked for the Department of the Navy. "ey met and then married in the mid-1960s, and both discovered a shared love for the Zoo. "ey were also present at the Wild Animal Park’s opening (now the Safari Park) in 1972, and the Park is still one of their favor-ite places to take friends, especially on a Caravan Safari. Two of their favorite memories are welcoming Ivan the gira#e as he stretched his long neck into the caravan truck to nibble on leaves and witness-ing the birth of a blackbuck antelope. As Carol remembers it, their friends “had their mouths open” from all the excitement.

42 ZOONOOZ Q NOVEMBER 201442
As we talked, their great enthusiasm and dedication for better-ing the lives of animals became apparent. Members since the 1970s, Carol and Dick have supported many new habitats at the Zoo and
enjoyed exhibit openings. Each time an exhibit is remodeled or cre-ated, the lives of animals are enriched with new sights, scents, and sounds, including more opportunities for play, exploring, and forag-ing using natural behaviors. For Carol and Dick, that makes every gi$ so rewarding.
As a couple, the Millards share many interests, such as exploring local tidewater pools, road trips, and visits to Hawaii. Since they adopted a homeless dog, Duchess, they don’t like to go too far a!eld and leave her behind, so daily walks are now at the top of their list. "ey also share a love of classic cars and owned a 1957 Ford "underbird for several years. Created just a year a$er the Corvette, it debuted at the Detroit Auto Show in 1954 and had all the %air of a sports car com-
bined with luxury and great style. A$er Dick restored it, they en-tered—and won!—several competitions with their T-Bird. When it was eventually sold, Carol says they kept the trophies and have great memories of driving this incredibly popular two-seater with its dis-tinctive porthole windows.
Both Carol and Dick said how much they are looking forward to the opening of Conrad Prebys Africa Rocks in 2017. With homes for penguins, zebras, leopards, baboons, lemurs, and other species, it will be the Zoo’s largest exhibit to date, as well as a spectacular follow-up to the Zoo’s centennial in 2016. Carol mentioned that they recently gave a gi$ for their !rst memorial bench—and she likes this idea so much that they may want a second bench for Africa Rocks. With a twinkle in her eye, she asked that I come and sit on their bench when the exhibit opens, taking time to unwind from the day. It will be an easy promise to keep. Q

from the archives
Un-“seal”ing Their FateSan Diego Zoo Global’s commitment to conservation began not long a!er the Zoo itself was found-ed. One mammal species, the Guadalupe fur seal Arctocephalus townsendi, owes at least part of its current exis-tence to those e"orts.
By the early 20th century, commercial hunting had so decimated the fur seal’s population that the zoological world believed the species to be extinct. #en, in 1928, our founder, Dr. Harry Wegeforth, received news of pos-sible Guadalupe fur seal sightings. He commissioned a voyage to islands o" the Paci$c Coast of Baja California, Mexico. A Guadalupe fur seal population was indeed located there, and a few individuals were brought to the San Diego Zoo. Hoping to also protect the remaining Guadalupe fur seals in the wild, the Zoo, in conjunction with the Mexican government, resolved to keep the location of the fur seals a secret. #is was the beginning of our or-ganization’s recognition of the need to conserve populations of animals and its dedication to achieving that goal.
