Fiscal Year 2014
Annual Report
[July 1, 2013 – June 30, 2014]
WHO WE ARE
Zoo New England is the non-profit organization responsible for
the operation of Franklin Park Zoo in Boston and Stone Zoo in
Stoneham, Mass. Both Zoos are accredited by the Association of
Zoos and Aquariums (AZA).
Dear Zoo Supporters,
Fiscal year 2014 was a year of continued growth and exciting new
opportunities for Zoo New England. From highly-anticipated births
including a Brazilian ocelot, a Grevy’s zebra, bongo, Canada lynx kittens
and a reindeer, to the debut of the new American alligator exhibit at
Stone Zoo and the return of the ever popular Giraffe Terrace at Franklin
Park Zoo, there was much to share with new and old friends.
Zoo New England’s mission is to inspire people to protect and
sustain the natural world for future generations by creating
fun and engaging experiences that integrate wildlife and
conservation programs, research, and education.

conservation efforts, please visit us at www.zoonewengland.org
Board of Directors Officers
We were especially excited to announce Nature’s Neighborhoods – the
new George Robert White Fund Children’s Zoo, being planned for
Franklin Park Zoo. This innovative project will feature state-of-theart exhibits that will provide the foundation for science education,
exploratory learning and connections to the natural world. By
comparing ecosystems to neighborhoods, children will be able to easily
relate to the roles that living creatures, including themselves, play
in healthy, thriving environments while exploring various habitats.
Nature’s Neighborhoods is a project based on extensive market research validating a concept that fulfills the need
for an area specifically geared for young children as a priority for Franklin Park Zoo and the community at large.

Franklin Park Zoo and Stone Zoo are vibrant, essential contributors to our region’s cultural and educational
landscape, providing affordable activities for schools and families while educating, inspiring and sharing the
wonders of wildlife. Once again this year, tens of thousands of students had fun while learning at our Zoos.
Education and conservation are the cornerstones of our mission, and we are committed to providing opportunities
that will inspire the next generation of conservation stewards and leaders. In FY 14, we were thrilled to launch
Youth Advisory Councils at both Zoos, which are comprised of highly motivated young people who are generating
ideas and pursuing actions to help us achieve even greater success. Our structured ZooTeen, Teen Ambassador and
Jr. ZooTeen programs are stronger and more popular than ever. The number of people served by programs and
interpretation, as well as revenues generated, continued to increase in FY14.
Advisory Council
Delivering on our mission and inspiring tomorrow’s conservation leaders requires great vision, passion, creativity
and commitment. As we do this work, we are fortunate to have a skilled and dedicated group of professional
staff, a strong core of devoted volunteers; and a talented and committed Board of Directors that is generous with
strategic direction, technical expertise, business insight, financial resources and an unwavering commitment to
ensuring engaging, inspiring and enriching experiences at our Zoos.

We are grateful to the loyal and generous Zoo members, donors and volunteers who help us provide meaningful
experiences to people of all ages. With your continued support, and that of a growing number of others, we are
working hard to realize our vision for these beloved Zoos. Together we can make a lasting impression on every
group of school children that walks through our gates, every teen who participates in our award-winning youth
programs, and every family that visits for a day of fun and adventure.
Sincerely,
Nature’s Neighborhoods, the new George Robert White
Fund Children’s Zoo, will feature an exciting new prairie
dog exhibit. Nature’s Neighborhoods encourages selfdirected “adventure play” as a core educational goal.

John Linehan
President & CEO
For years Zoo New England has been an active participant in
and contributor to a number of important Species Survival Plans
(SSPs), cooperative inter-zoo programs coordinated nationally
through AZA that are designed to maintain genetically diverse
and demographically stable captive populations of species.
A prime example of this in action could be seen in December
2013, when we were proud to be part of an international
collaboration which resulted in the arrival of Inocencio, a
young pygmy hippo from the Parque Zoologico Buin Zoo in
Chile, to Franklin Park Zoo. The North American captive pygmy
hippo population is small – only about 61 individuals – and
highly skewed toward females. The hope is that Inocencio will
eventually breed with female pygmy hippo Cleopatra, who also
resides at Franklin Park Zoo, and further the efforts to create
a self-sustaining population for these endangered animals.
Inocencio’s arrival was the result of a collaborative effort
between Zoo New England, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S.
Customs and Border Protection and the USDA’s Animal Plant
Health Inspection Service.
In addition to Inocencio, visitors encountered a number of
other new furry faces and feathered heads as they toured our
Zoos.
Zoos
Births and hatchings at Franklin Park Zoo included a Grevy’s
zebra, prairie dogs, African pygmy falcon chicks, and Siberian
crane chicks.
Inocencio, an endangered pygmy hippo, arrived at
Franklin Park Zoo in December 2013 from Parque
Zoologico Buin Zoo in Chile as the result of an
international collaboration. It is hoped that one day he
will successfully breed with Cleopatra, a female pygmy
hippo who also resides at Franklin Park Zoo.
That Inspire
Whether standing face to face with an endangered western
lowland gorilla, or witnessing a newborn reindeer learning
how to walk under its mother’s watchful eye, visitors to Zoo
New England’s Franklin Park and Stone Zoos have the unique
opportunity to connect with the natural world through
meaningful experiences that can create lasting memories.
Whether it’s a family outing, a corporate picnic or a school field
trip, our Zoos provide a welcoming environment for all guests
to enjoy while learning about the incredible animals with
which we share our planet. It’s also incredibly moving when
we hear stories about how the Zoos and the animals inspire
and empower people, particularly kids, to make a difference
in their community. We had the opportunity to recognize an
outstanding youth for his efforts on behalf of wildlife and
conservation with the Zoo Hero Youth Award presented at
Zootopia.
In FY 14, a total of 652,655 guests visited the Zoos and
experienced all that we had to offer. We are working hard
to realize our vision for the future of these Zoos and are
committed to building world-class institutions for you and your
family to enjoy for generations to come.
Significant Animal
Achievements
Each animal is an ambassador for its species and has a story
tell about the importance of wildlife protection and habitat
preservation. Some species rely on zoos in part for their
comeback from the brink of extinction. Management of animals
within and cooperatively between institutions accredited by the
Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) is vital for ensuring
healthy, genetically diverse populations.
In the fall of 2013, Franklin Park Zoo’s female Grevy’s zebra
Evita gave birth to a male foal. The foal was named Jakobi, a
west African word meaning “star,” as the result of a public poll
conducted on Franklin Park Zoo’s Facebook page. This birth
served as a continuation of ZNE’s very successful participation
in the Grevy’s Zebra SSP – currently, there are fewer than
2,700 of these endangered animals in the wild. Franklin Park
Zoo also celebrated the birth of a Brazilian ocelot kitten, and
three important hatches – one of a rare Siberian crane chick
(one of only 21 in captivity in four North American institutions
accredited by AZA) and two African pygmy falcon chicks.
Memorial Day weekend brought something snappy to Stone
Zoo with the arrival of three American alligators. The alligator
exhibit is a permanent seasonal exhibit that allows guests to
visit the alligators into the early fall. In addition to these scaly
faces, after re-opening in the spring following several months
of construction and renovations, visitors to Windows to the
Wild saw new additions including a Matschie’s tree kangaroo,
straw-colored fruit bats and cotton-top tamarins.
Stone Zoo also celebrated the birth of four Canada lynx kittens
and the birth of a male reindeer. All of these births were extra
joyful occasions, as they marked the first successful births of
each species at the Zoo.

area. Visitors can see the crane within the Alfred Huang North
American Crane Exhibit at Stone Zoo.
The whooping crane is critically endangered, and ZNE is
committed to the research and conservation of the species. We
are a proud supporter of Operation Migration, which conducts
groundbreaking work in reintroducing whooping cranes into
eastern North America.
Farther away, ZNE continues its work saving amphibians from
the brink of extinction in the amphibian-rich region of eastern
Panama. Dr. Eric Baitchman, ZNE Director of Veterinary Services,
is the lead veterinarian for the Panama Amphibian Rescue and
Conservation Project (PARC).
In partnership with other institutions, ZNE provided support
in a variety of ways for numerous other regional, national
and international wildlife conservation projects, among them
the Snow Leopard Trust, 96 Elephants and whooping crane
conservation.
Committed
Closer to home, Zoo New England continues to collaborate with
the Blanding’s turtle research and monitoring project at Great
Meadows National Wildlife Refuge in an effort to boost this
turtle species’ population. Each fall, Stone Zoo cares for a small
group of hatchlings and keeps them safe for nine months until
they are re-released back into Great Meadows’ wetlands with
radio transmitters attached to the top part of their
shell. The goal is to locate the turtle three times per
year and to take measurements twice a year to
monitor survival and growth rates.
to Conservation
Pictured at top: A young visitor feeds Beau the giraffe at
the Giraffe Terrace, open seasonally at Franklin Park Zoo.
Immersive
Experiences
Standing face to face with Beau the giraffe, one can truly
appreciate the beauty and grace of this majestic species – it is
an experience not soon forgotten.
Visitors to Franklin Park Zoo have the opportunity to share
some face-time with these beautiful, gentle animals at the everpopular Giraffe Terrace, open seasonally. It is not every day that
you have the chance to feed butternut squash to an 18-foot tall
giraffe, and the Zoo is proud to offer this special experience
and create lasting memories for guests of all ages.
Crowds at Stone Zoo looked toward the sky with wonder
during the free-flight Masters of Flight: Birds of Prey show,
open May through Labor Day. Bird species from around the
world are awe-inspiring as they swoop about, demonstrating
natural behaviors such as food foraging and unique survival
techniques during this engaging and educational experience.
With the addition of the American alligator exhibit at Stone
Zoo in 2014, visitors were given the unique opportunity to meet
smaller gators – measuring 1 foot long each – up close as part
of the Zoo’s daily education encounters at the exhibit.
At Franklin Park Zoo, Aussie Aviary and Butterfly Landing
remained places where people can truly connect with the
wonders of wildlife. Whether feeding the colorful budgies
in Aussie Aviary or finding tranquility amongst the fluttering
denizens of Butterfly Landing, visitors flocked to these
interactive, educational spaces.
The 6D ride Rhino Rescue combined state-of-the-art technology
with a conservation message in a dynamic, memorable way as
it continued to thrill visitors by taking them on a high-speed
chase alongside park rangers pursuing rhino poachers.
FY 14 brought many events that were unique in a way that
only the Zoo can offer. During the Run Wild 5K races at both
Zoos, participants had the opportunity to lace up their sneakers
as they had fun and ran in support of the Zoos. At Franklin
Park Zoo, guests to the annual Brew at the Zoo sipped on
a wide array of delicious beers as they strolled amongst the
animals and experienced a unique evening event that has
proven to be more popular each year. Also at Franklin Park
Zoo, the inaugural Uncorked served up wine tastings at this
well received spring event. At Stone Zoo’s not-to-be-missed A
Wild Affair, guests sampled tasty food and drinks generously
donated from a variety of local restaurants and caterers,
listened to live entertainment, bid on an array of fabulous
auction items and experienced so much more.
These experiences and so many others uniquely position our
Zoos to connect guests to the vast wonders of nature through
exploration, discovery, play, education, and imagination.
Visitors leave with a greater appreciation for the natural world
that will stay with them long after their visits.
While our animal collection is the primary motivation behind a
Zoo visit, our mission – our passion – is to inspire and educate
the next generation of conservation stewards and leaders. Our
conservation programs make a lasting and meaningful impact
locally, regionally and internationally. At our Zoos, people of
any age can discover the incredible biodiversity of our planet
and the critical role they play in ensuring it is a healthy, thriving
environment for generations to come.
Quarters for Conservation, launched in 2013, dedicates 25 cents
from each admission and $2.50 from each membership to ZNE’s
conservation efforts, allowing us to greatly expand funding
dedicated to our mission imperative. It also gives each visitor a
direct impact on wildlife conservation. The conservation kiosks
at both Zoos continue to educate visitors about some of our
conservation initiatives and allows them to discuss and vote on
the conservation project they’d like to support.
Through our cooperative captive breeding programs, many new
animals are born or hatched, or brought to our Zoos to bolster
our breeding and education programs. In the spring of 2014, a
male whooping crane joined the collection. The crane, one of
approximately 600 remaining (about 300 of which are in the
wild), had set up a territory on an air field in Wisconsin, and
despite repeated efforts to encourage him to move elsewhere,
the decision was made to remove him from the wild for his
safety and for human safety as planes take off and land in that
Pictured at top: The Organic Garden Project at Franklin Park Zoo is
providing fresh produce and enrichment for the animals.
Pictured at right: Visitors to Stone Zoo can see this male whooping
crane and learn more about conservation efforts on behalf of these
endangered birds.
New to Franklin Park Zoo in FY 14 was the Organic Garden
Project – an initiative launched to sustainably provide organic
food and enrichment to the Zoos’ animals. In addition to
generating produce, the garden provides the opportunity to
educate visitors and the community about the importance
of fresh, locally grown produce and how to start small-scale
organic gardens on their own. This project aligned perfectly
with the Zoos’ mission and dedication to conservation.
Sharing the
Wonders
of the Natural World
Franklin Park Zoo and Stone Zoo provide the environment for
active exploration, inquiry and hands-on discovery to inspire
people to interact positively with the natural world. Zoo New
England’s expansive science, technology, engineering and
mathematics (STEM) focused educational programs, which
incorporate Massachusetts and federal curriculum frameworks,
supplement and build interest in formal science education and
enable our guests to explore the complex connection between
natural, thriving habitats and wildlife.
The Zoos offer free admission to all Massachusetts
schoolchildren throughout the school year. By providing
opportunities to under-resourced children who may otherwise
not be able to visit our Zoos, we’re able to connect them with
the natural world and bring fun and effective educational
programming to all members of our community. In FY 14,
57,649 students visited Franklin Park Zoo and Stone Zoo at no
cost as part of school field trips.
Through a range of formal and informal programming, the
Education department shares the wonder of nature with
students of all ages – from toddlers in our Playful Paws
playgroups to school-aged children, college students doing
research, adult education students and casual learners.
“
What a wonderful experience our troop had.
We all agree it was by far the best overnight
we’ve had and we’ve done many. The zoo
keepers were also great, I want to especially
point out that Andrew, our Zoo Educator,
was fantastic, he was friendly and kept the
girls engaged. He did a terrific interactive
presentation and we had a lot of fun.
– Scout Group
”
Class time isn’t only for children, however. Our educators also
offer classes aligned with the state’s educational frameworks to
enhance the knowledge, skills, and expertise of Massachusetts
and New Hampshire school teachers.
In FY 14, the Youth Advisory Council was created to further
engage young people between ages 11 to 14 by working with
staff at both Zoos on program, exhibit and event advisement
while also assisting with marketing, fundraising and community
outreach efforts. Through these efforts, Council members
can leave a lasting mark on the Zoo as they develop the
skills necessary to become future leaders in their schools and
communities.

Strengthening
our Communities
Inspiring
As a vibrant component of the cultural community in Boston
and beyond, Zoo New England is committed to community
participation and community access. We were once again
pleased to partner with the Highland Street Foundation who
sponsored a very successful, and highly attended, free day
at Franklin Park Zoo. In FY 14, ZNE offered 3,600 passes to
community groups that otherwise would not be able to access
the Zoos. We continue to work with community centers, camps
and groups such as the Greater Grove Hall Main Streets, The
Kroc Army Salvation Center, Project RIGHT, Winn Companies,
Franklin Park Coalition, Boston Youth Environmental Network,
The Emerald Necklace Conservancy, Stoneham Chamber
of Commerce, and the Stoneham Business Roundtable.
Additionally, we continue to do outreach to libraries, schools,
after-school programs and various other entities.
Tomorrow’s
Leaders
Since 1999, Zoo New England’s nationally recognized ZooTeen
programs have created opportunities and nurtured the
development of more than 1,400 young people. The ZooTeen
Program provides youth the opportunity to receive direct
exposure to zoo and conservation-oriented careers in a safe,
structured and professional learning environment. Personal
academic and professional development classes and service
projects are incorporated into the program’s design. While
these young people work in a range of Zoo departments, they
forge lasting personal and professional relationships, build their
resumes and hone interview skills.
The program attracts a diverse group of participants from
the neighborhoods surrounding Franklin Park Zoo. Upon
completion of the ZooTeen Program, selected teens are given
the opportunity to extend their work at the Zoo throughout
the school year through our Teen Ambassador Program.
We also have an active Junior ZooTeen program for youth aged
11 to 14. This program offers a hands-on learning atmosphere
and several mentoring relationships with senior staff members.
“
The ZooTeen program is one of best ways
to get youth around the community more
involved and aware about the environment
and conservation efforts. It is a great way
to meet new people, make new friends
and explore possible science careers.
”
– Zannatul Zannat, Teen Ambassador
With help from donations, we partnered with area hospitals
and non-profit organizations to present DreamNight, a special
evening for chronically ill and disabled children to enjoy
Franklin Park Zoo with their families and caregivers free of
charge. More than 1,000 guests attended this annual event.
We also facilitated another successful ZooCamp at Franklin Park
Zoo, marking the 19th year of our partnership with Camp Fire
USA. Because ZooCamp tuitions are purposely kept low, this
unique summer camp is accessible for many children from lowincome families.

Jonathan Gilmour
Memorial Scholarship Fund
In April 2006, Franklin Park Zoo lost a cherished family member when
former Zookeeper Jonathan Gilmour passed away suddenly at age 29.
To honor Jonathan and his commitment to the welfare of animals, the
Jonathan Gilmour Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in his
memory. The fund was established by Zoo New England with the generous
financial support and volunteer leadership from the Gilmour family.
Award winners are ZNE staff members who have been employed by the Zoo
for at least one year.
Each May, the Jonathan Gilmour Memorial Scholarship Bike Ride is held in
Hollis, N.H. Hundreds of riders celebrate Jonathan’s memory and through
the years this Ride has raised tens of thousands of dollars to support the
scholarship fund.

from the Zoo.
