Roosevelt Elk
about animals
Image by docentjoyce
In the early 1900’s the Roosevelt Elk population plummeted to only about a dozen animals. Theodore Roosevelt, an avid hunter and an active contributor to wildlife conservation, created Olympic National Park in Washington (then called Mount Olympus National Monument) for future generations to enjoy and to provide protection for the Roosevelt Elk.

These pics were all taken @150mm focal length or greater.

i seperated these fro mthe rest as i discovered them to be extremely soft especially when taken with the widest aperture available. Some pics taken at F/8 or greater are useable but still soft.

cos of these pics i have replaced my kit 50-200mm pentax lens with a tamron 28-300 which seems to be sharp all the way through the focal length ... gosh darn it ... i guess i have to go back to Chester Zoo :)))))

Man, I love Miss Dot. She's starting to show her age. She hissed at me a few times, when I think she didn't hear me or smell me before I petted her. And she's not cleaning quite as well. But she is still putting the smack down on violence in the room. And at one point she followed me while I was cleaning to approve of the moving of all the things, which made me tear up a bit. And she's still excited by a good jingledy ball.

Miss Dot lives in Niblet's at Benton's.

Rhino Encounter - NOW FIXED & SMALLER FILE!
about endangered animals
Image by GollyGforce
The orig file I posted this morning (in a rush on my way to work) was 58mg and took forever to load, for those who could even get it to start loading. I apologize, I wasn't paying attention and have re-saved the file optimized for flickr and it loads fine. PLEASE try it again, I promise it will be worth it!

This was taken Tuesday night during a docent training class that I was sitting in on to get continuing education hours. I know the video quality is low, but it was taken on my cruddy phone using the night mode. It's only 90 seconds and you get a glimpse of a few remarkable creatures from a perspective not many see.

Many of you know about my volunteer work as a docent with our local zoo, but most of the work you hear about is done off the grounds at events, schools and similar situations using the education animals. We are also trained on the exhibit animals, tours, events and such on zoo grounds.

Not many people have the opportunity to interact with a critically endangered species like the Black Rhino's, especially in a controlled environment with minimal risk of serious injury. I stress this because I don't want people to think these are docile or tame animals, they can be very aggressive and unpredictable. This is part of the indoor nonpublic areas that the Rhinos spend their winter safely in. The building was designed specifically to house 2 adults, you only see a small bit in the video, but there are permanent barriers and a variety of hydraulic gates. Mobile gates give keepers flexibility to allow the animals to rotate pens, and reconfigure pen layout so they can access all areas as needed while always having a safety barrier between humans and animals.

I added a couple big cat clips at at the end, the female Snow Leopard, and 2 of the three Amur Tiger cubs born at our zoo in Sept of 2011. All three species shown in my videos have one thing in common, they are all critically endangered species, and are all part of the Species Survival Plan (SSP).

* Some humpbacks feed in the Southern Ocean and go north to their reproductive areas!
* Can stay underwater for 30 minutes but often dives for much shorter periods of time, usually 5 to 10 minutes
* Humpbacks emit high frequency "clicks" reaching 30,000 Hz
* The males produce, in frequencies between 20 and 9,000 Hz, songs that are the longest and the most varied in all the animal kingdom, with repeated sequences about 15 minutes long
* When they are in cold waters, the humpback whale eats 2 tons of fish and planktonic crustaceans a day, in 2 to 4 meals

Extremely Rare Guam Rails Hatch at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo
about endangered animals
Image by Smithsonian's National Zoo
Photo Credit: Jim and Pam Jenkins, FONZ Photo Club

As Washington, D.C.’s unseasonably warm winter turns into spring, a baby boom is underway at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo. Two Guam rail (Gallirallus owstoni) chicks hatched March 3 and 4; they join six others in the Zoo’s collection—three of which live at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in Front Royal, Va. This brings the total population of these small, flightless birds to 162 individuals. Each hatching is significant—the International Union for Conservation of Nature lists these birds as extinct in the wild.

In about six weeks, keepers will separate the chicks from their parents, and Zoo veterinarians will perform a routine medical exam and take feather samples to determine their sexes.

To date, 82 chicks have hatched at the Zoo and SCBI, and each provides scientists with the opportunity to learn about the growth, reproduction, health and behavior of the species. The Zoo sent 29 Guam rails to the government of Guam for release and breeding, and an additional 25 birds have gone to other institutions to breed.

Guam rails flourished in Guam’s limestone forests and coconut plantations until the arrival of the brown tree snake (Boiga irregularis), an invasive species that stowed away in military equipment shipped from New Guinea after World War II. Because these reptiles had no natural predators on Guam, their numbers grew and they spread across the island quickly. Within three decades, they hunted Guam rails and eight other bird species to the brink of extinction.

In 1986, Guam’s Department of Aquatic and Wildlife Resources captured the country’s remaining 21 Guam rails and sent them to zoological institutions around the globe—including the National Zoo—as a hedge against extinction. The Association of Zoos and Aquariums created a Species Survival Plan for the birds. The SSP pairs males and females in order to maintain a genetically diverse and self-sustaining population.

Today, 118 Guam rails are thriving on two islands near the mainland: Rota and Cocos. The availability of release sites continues to shrink, however, due to deforestation and human expansion. Controlling the brown snake population remains a significant challenge as well, though researchers have made progress in developing a variety of barriers, traps and toxicants. Forty-four birds reside in zoos and other facilities in North America.

Visitors to the Smithsonian’s National Zoo can see these birds on exhibit in the Bird House. In stark contrast to their brown-and-white-plumaged parents, Guam rail chicks sport black downy feathers.
