Dateline: March 22, 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 the release of the USA Today Top 10 lists for Best Zoo, Best Zoo Exhibit, and Best Safari Park!

We then get back on track with our births and deaths. We have a whole bunch to cover, including a new okapi at the Dallas Zoo, twin blue eyed black lemurs at the Little Rock Zoo, two pelicans born at the Phoenix Zoo, a new baboon at the Oakland Zoo, a kiwi chick born at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, a wolverine kit at ZooMontana, a little blue penguin at the Cincinnati Zoo, and more! In deaths, we say goodbye to a young red panda at Zoo Atlanta, a cheetah at Phoenix, a giraffe at Riverbanks Zoo, a river otter at the Detroit Zoo, and golden lion tamarin at Beardsley Zoo, and more. 

We then move on to our other Zoo News stories, including two really interesting studies, a Quarters for Conservation milestone for Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, new wildlife conservation programs from the Denver Zoo, March of the Penguin Madness, penguin acupuncture, training a gorilla on how to be a mom, the medical journey of a young lion at Lincoln Park Zoo, and much more!

In Conservation News, we talk about two animal reintroductions, why speakers can help save coral, and another look at why conservation communication matters. 

In Other News, we share two alligator stories.
