The crowned lemur lives in forests in Madagascar, where it gets 80-90% of its diet from fruit. It prefers drier forests over humid forests and will enter caves to find water during the dry season. Crowned lemurs are mostly diurnal but have a 2 hour period of nighttime activity. They can be safely viewed by the public as long as humans and lemurs keep their distance. Ankole cattle live in open forests and meadows where they graze on grasses, leaves, and acorns. They are not disturbed by human presence if humans and cattle remain separated. Zoos provide wheelchair accessibility and full veterinary care for their animals to ensure their safety and health. During

2. Crowned Lemur
Eulemur,coronatus

3. Maintenance
 the diet of crowned lemurs contains a high percentage of
fruit with relatively few leaves.
 In both wet and dry seasons, fruit comprises as much as 80%
to 90% of the crowned lemur diet.
 They prefer drier forests, existing in higher densities in these
habitats than in adjacent humid forests.
 dry season: crowned lemurs search out waterholes, often
found deep inside caves, for water.
 Primary Diet:
herbivore
 Animal Foods:
insects
 Plant Foods:
leaves; seeds, grains, and nuts; fruit; pollen; flowers
 However, it often forages in scrubby bushes and short trees
and routinely descends to the ground so it can eat fallen fruit
or to travel. In dry areas, it may enter deeply into caves in
search of water

4. Safe Public Viewing (C.L.)
 The crowned lemur is mostly
diurnal, although it usually has a
nighttime activity period lasting up
to 2 hours.
 Most lemurs are very active and
safe when put on display in front of
people just as long both keep their
distance equally.

5. Ankole Cattle
 Bos taurus taurus,
ankole

6. Maintenance
 Diet includes
grasses, leaves, and acorns
 Habitats include open
forests and meadows.
 Must live in this type of
environment to graze
properly.

7. Safe Public Viewing (A.C.)
 Ankole cattle are not
disturbed by human
presence as long as
humans stay on one side
and the cattle stay on
theirs.

8. Handicap Accessibility
 In all
zoos, wheelchairs
accessible by
ramps, including
small and large
motorized scooters.

9. Medical Treatment
 The Zoo hospital is open to serve 365
days a year with full-service veterinary
care in almost every part of the world.
 Hospital includes radiology,
ultrasound, surgery, laboratory,
treatment, examination areas, diet
preparation kitchen, and housing for
species ranging from tiny amphibians
to great apes and antelope.
 There are separate,quarantine facilities
for small and large animals

10. Protection from Severe Weather
 First, animals that normally are on exhibit or outside
are moved inside . That even includes animals that
normally spend all their time outside.
 Zoo staff say they always check and maintain
enclosures — from locking mechanisms to
doors, cages and holding areas. The goal is for
everything to be secure, to limit any chance for an
animal to get loose if a strong storm damages
something. Then, after the storm passes, all those
items are checked again to make sure animals can't
get out.
 Fortunately, despite the many recent strong
storms, any damage to the zoo has been minor.
 If severe weather is a threat, the zoo has someone
monitor the weather and radar to keep staff
updated. And if a storm hits at night, there is always
someone on site to monitor any damage.
