Dateline: April 4, 2025. 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 me and a story about how I saved a beaver this week. Totally good normal stuff.

We then get to two headline stories: one looking at how recent Executive Orders can affect the Smithsonian's National Zoo, and zoos and aquariums in general; and then as a pallet cleanser, a look at some of the best April Fool's posts from facilities we all love! 

We then move on to our births for the week, featuring animals from Colchester Zoo, Long Island Aquarium, Hertfordshire Zoo, Altina Wildlife Park, Zoo Miami, Opel Zoo, The Alaska Zoo, and Longleat. 

We say goodbye to beloved animals at Brevard Zoo, Gladys Porter Zoo, Columbus Zoo, Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium, the Detroit Zoo, and the Nashville Zoo. 

The rest of our Zoo News stories feature items from the New Zoo, Duke Lemur Center, the San Antonio Zoo, SeaLife Sydney, and more.

Then in Conservation News we have good and bad news for wolves and a look at a recent bust in the illegal wildlife trade. 

In Other News, we talk about dogs.
