Rossifari Zoo News 7.26.24 - The Coral Salvation Edition featuring Paige Hale of the Georgia Aquarium

Rossifari Podcast - Zoos, Aquariums, and Animal Conservation

Dateline: July 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!
We start off with a quick update on my life and then head to our headline story, which is an interview this week! I talk to Paige Hale of the Georgia Aquarium about coral smuggling in the United States, and how a story about the Georgia Aquarium's efforts to assist the confiscated coral led to some very impressive national news coverage!
We then get into our births for the week including a tree kangaroo joey at Zoo Miami, a new red panda at the Chattanooga Zoo, a new zebra at Disney's Animal Kingdom, a really cool story about a Pittsburgh penguin (not a hockey player), and so much more!
We also say goodbye to some incredible animals including a 7 year old polar bear at the Calgary Zoo, a Pallas' Cat at the Big Cat Sanctuary, a painted dog at the Dallas Zoo, and a beloved lion at the Hertfordshire Zoo.
We then move on to our other Zoo News stories. We talk about a new fox at the Cincinnati Zoo, health concerns for two different red pandas, giant panda updates from Zoo Atlanta and the San Diego Zoo, a news story about two dogs becoming zoo guests, and a follow up on our April story about the leadership crisis at the San Francisco Zoo.
In Conservation News, we talk about an influx of cetaceans in San Francisco Bay and what that might mean.
