Abstract:

The impact that humans have on zoo animals can vary based on the species of animal, exhibit design, and individual differences in behavioral responses. We independently analyzed data from 10 never-published studies that examined the impact of zoo visitors on zoo animal behavior. Of the 16 species studied, 90.9% of the mammal species and 60.0% of the fish species demonstrated a change in at least one behavior based on zoo visitor abundance or visitor behavior (e.g., noise, solicitation of interactions from zoo animals). In addition, behavioral changes associated with zoo visitors were present i

Abstract:

Johne’s disease, caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP), is a chronic, progressive bacterial enteritis of ruminants that can cause serious losses in both livestock and exotic species. Infection risk in exotic ruminants is associated with maternal infection status, but the effect of other herdmates on risk of infection has not been reported, to our knowledge. We conducted a retrospective cohort study to evaluate the association between MAP infection status and early-life contact with infected herdmates. The study population included 3,234 individuals representing 128 specie

Abstract:

Achieving and maintaining high standards of animal welfare is critical to the success of a modern zoo. Research has shown that an animal’s welfare is highly dependent on how various individual animal factors (e.g., species traits, genetics, temperament and previous experience) interact with environmental features (e.g., social grouping, enclosure design and sensory environment). One prominent feature of the zoo environment is the presence of visitors. Visitor contact can be unpredictable and intense, particularly in terms of auditory and visual interaction.

Abstract:

Ravens are known for their ability to use tools, both in captivity and in natural conditions. This activity is connected mainly to nourishment-related or aggressive behaviour. At Košice Zoo, we carried out an observation of raven tool use behaviour, with the observation focused on contact with a human, that can be interpreted as social behaviour within the context of interspecies communication. In all observed cases (54) of raven tool use, this type of behaviour only manifested itself in an adult male. The raven was inclined to mostly choose longer tools for an attack.

AbstractThe Zoo solution to Fermi's Paradox proposes that extraterrestrial intelligences (ETIs) have agreed to not contact the Earth. The strength of this solution depends on the ability for ETIs to come to agreement, and establish/police treaties as part of a so-called ‘Galactic Club’. These activities are principally limited by the causal connectivity of a civilization to its neighbours at its inception, i.e. whether it comes to prominence being aware of other ETIs and any treaties or agreements in place.

Abstract:

Advances in technology and communication today have an impact on changes in the Industrial Revolution, including the Tourism Industry. The use of computers and the Internet of Things (IoT) in the tourism industry currently has an important role, which can include many ways, one of which is contact with customers. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is a business strategy that integrates business processes that are directly related to consumers (marketing, sales, and services) with business people, business processes, and supporting technology to get customer retention [7].

Abstract:

In anticipation of a major construction project in an urban New Zealand zoo, a study was initiated to assess the response to construction noise of selected animal species (elephant, giraffe, emu and alligator) previously observed to be sensitive to this kind of noise. The overall aim was to detect any signs of aversive responses to this noise to enable keepers to recognize these and take any necessary mitigating actions during the construction period. The experimental approach involved the creation of acoustic maps of each focal animal enclosure, a series of 90-min video recordings of the anim

Abstract:

Animal ambassador encounters (AAE), where visitors come into close-contact with animals, are popular in zoos and are advocated as promoting connection to wild species. However, educational and animal-welfare implications are relatively unknown. We conducted a systematic literature review (PRISMA) to investigate visitor and animal outcomes of AAE. We identified 19 peer reviewed articles and 13 other records focused on AAEs. Although we found net positive or neutral impacts overall, several studies indicated that high-intensity visitor contact and long-term exposure may be detrimental to animal

Abstract:

Rajiv Joseph's Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo is among the plays which represent the Iraqi war— a prominent event in postmodern history. The play is based on a real story which happened in the Bagdad Zoo when some American soldiers killed a rare Bengal tiger. It is a documentation of this real story and it includes real names and historical places and characters, which make it qualified as a documentary play. The present paper employs the new historicist method in its attempt to show how much the play is a representation of the culture that motivates the actions, whether it is the culture of

Abstract:

Across the globe, many animals with disabilities live in zoos and aquariums, yet these institutions often face difficult questions about how to share those stories with the public in a way that raises awareness and minimizes concern about the animals’ well-being. This study explored whether anthropomorphic narrative signage could help visitors form meaningful emotional connections with these animals and, in doing so, encourage greater understanding and support for people with disabilities.

This study aimed to assess the degradation of the National Zoo of Abidjan. To achieve this, we employed two field methods: surface survey and linear survey. The surface survey involved counting all plant species within each plot, focusing on those with circumferences greater than or equal to 7.85 cm at breast height. A 100-meter-long rope was stretched horizontally just above the ground for the linear survey. Using this technique, 100 measurements were taken at regular one-meter intervals. At each contact point, we recorded the species and the distance at which each individual was encountered

Glanders is one of the oldest known infectious disease of Equidae (horse, donkey, mule) caused by the Gram-negative bacillus bacteria Burkholderia mallei. Cats, dogs, goats, camels and bears can also be affected and most importantly, humans can become infected by contact with infected animals. Glanders can be considered as a re-emerging disease as the number of outbreaks in solipeds and other animals, for example zoo carnivores (tigers and lions) and camels has steadily risen during the last two decades (Wittig et al., 2006; Wernery et al., 2011; ProMED, 2011a).

Both age and social history significantly affected bull behavior. Adolescent bulls exhibited more affiliative and submissive behaviors when housed with mixed-age and mature soc

Therefore, it is important to identify potential parasitic infections that can be transferred from humans to animals and vise versa. In the present study, the primates were investigated for the gastrointestinal parasites. Total of 85 fecal samples were collected from all the species and examined for the presence of helmin

Brain aging is accompanied by the development of an imbalance of the systems of chemical regulation of cells, a decrease in neurotrophic factors, and disorders of brain plasticity. Important place in the neurotransmitter changes in aging is given to the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), represented in the system of both external and internal neurotransmitters. With aging, the activity of GABA systems changes and the content of GABA in brain structures decreases, which is associated with impaired mental function and the development of pathology, in particular, dementia.
