Dateline: October 10, 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 some great news about Shots for Spots and Fahlo bracelets! Speaking of, if you can help with Shots for Spots, please do so here: https://kindest.com/831498-shots-for-spots
Our headline story is saying goodbye to Dr. Jane Goodall, hopefully in a way that is different than all of the other amazing tributes out there.
Then it's time for Zoo News stories from Smithsonian's National Zoo, Virginia Zoo, the Denver Zoo, Wingham Wildlife Park, the Chester Zoo, Greensboro Science Center, the Memphis Zoo, Lions Tigers & Bears, the Topeka Zoo, and Woodland Park Zoo, along with a discussion about how legislation and the closing of facilities can have unintended consequences even when the overall choice is correct.
Conservation News stories include a special Squirrel Awareness Month story, an amazing technique helping monarch butterflies, and HUGE news out of China.
And in Other News, we have an intervention.
