Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 428

It’s in the middle of nowhere, so it’s hard to raise money and they’re not gonna come to Cleveland or Columbus and raise money because we’re raising money for our zoos there. And admissions was, was minimal because it’s a long way. Now with that said, Columbus Zoo saved it,… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 427

Well, I wouldn’t call it a luxury. I think it’s really nice that, again, St. Louis is the one that’s just now doing that. But you know, San Diego and then fortunately we’re in, in Ohio, we have the wilds. When I got to Cleveland, the money, the, the land… Read More

So we have to be really restrictive to make sure we deal with the most vulnerable species, I think. Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 424

We will never, zoos can’t save everything. We have to be very particular what we can work with and can’t work with and, and, and work together. I’ve, as you know, because you’ve been involved in these programs too, you know, the hoofstock people have to come together and say,… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 423

It’s very much underutilized. And if they had the right funding, they could do a lot more out there. They already have oppy and giraffes. They have like 20 or 30 whooping cranes, that’s a whooping cae breeding area. So there’s lots of, there is some spaces available, but again,… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 422

It always will be a problem, but I’m, I’m, I, I think, well the space is c caused by two things. One, we keep lesser animals, fewer animals in larger spaces, so we don’t have as many species et cetera. And two, we just don’t have enough space. You know… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 421

Do you feel that space continues to be a problem for zoos and aquariums?… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 419

At least from my very tell you. Yeah. Well, yeah. It’s interesting. And I know they’re working on this too. Yes. At least when I was there, and I think it’s still the same, the local conservation program got the most money saving turtles in Cleveland as opposed to lions… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 420

They’re changing the whole rainforest to be forest now and to tie in how we need to conserve forest in Ohio with forest worldwide. So when people, people understand how we need forests in Ohio. So I, I think people are starting to understand that. But that’s a good question. Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 417

So a lot of zoos have this quarters for conservation program where a part of your admission goes to field conservation outside the walls, it can go to the cheetah fund, it can go to any other bonafide conservation program. They also have ways that say 50% over a dollar… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 418

Did you find that the public in Cleveland putting in this token was favoring like one program way more than another?… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 416

So they buy a token? Yeah, they buy it. Yeah. No, they don’t buy it. So the mission’s $20, so 50. So as soon as you buy it, you get a token and that’s 50 cents. And then that token you put in, and that’s called quarter. It was started… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 415

Did you start that?… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 414

So they, from the moment they come in the zoo, they understand what the zoo is doing for field conservation. Remember I talked about field conservation versus other forms of conservation. So I think that’s very important that people understand what, what the zoo is about and if they, and… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 413

So, so people, most people look at what’s this?… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 412

Hmm. Well I, I am not sure this is the answer, but the, to try to get people to understand that what zoos are doing for conservation and Ccle Cleveland has done a great job. When I left, they built this, it’s probably 40 by 40 feet kiosk in a… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 411

What do you think is the most, one of the most difficult concepts for zoos to understand and implement regarding their relationship to conservation?… Read More

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 409

Interview 31514 – Caption Index: 408
