As expected after the initial 12 monthperiod of hype and excitement associated with Pandas,visitation at Adelaide Zoo has plateaud somewhat. Howevervisitation continues at levels well above pre-Pandas – onaverage some 40% above – and we continue to benefitfrom the profile that they deliver. Pleasingly we have seenencouraging growth in visitor numbers at Monarto. Ourattention is turning to Monarto and the tremendousopportunity that it presents; we continue to look at optionsfor its development. And of course some 12 months aftertaking over the operations of Warrawong we are seeing thebenefit of its integration with Zoos SA.The financial position of Zoos SA reflects the strategicinvestment in upgrading facilities at both Adelaide andMonarto over the past three years, a substantial portionof which relates to the new entrance and Panda exhibitat Adelaide Zoo. We are focused on prudent financialmanagement to ensure we can meet our financialcommitments. Our financial position has received muchmedia attention and clearly it has been a significant area offocus as we look to resolve this situation. We have workedclosely with Government and our bank over the past sixmonths. I am pleased to say that our relationship with bothremains positive and we continue to make sound progress inidentifying a path forward.We have written and spoken a number of times about theeconomic impact study undertaken by one of the majorindependent accounting firms to quantify and understandthe economic benefit that Zoos SA brings to the SouthAustralian economy. This study confirmed that Zoos SA hasachieved a leadership position in tourism and conservationin SA and contributed between $75 million and $116 millionin 2010 to the broader economy through such areas asemployment and tourism. Some important extracts fromthis study include:• Zoos SA directly supports over 200 full time jobs and theequivalent of 2,000 full time jobs across South Australia.• The contribution of Panda’s to the state has been $57million in 2010.• Our organisation makes a significant contribution toeducation and social capital of this State.The contribution Zoos SA makes comes at a cost andensuring we receive a fair proportion of these benefits andare able to reinvest in our core values and mission is a keygoal of the Board and the broader organisation.President’s Report– 1 of 2

At the core of this plan isour focus on conservation and how we continue to develop aleadership position through our existing platform. This planwill continue to evolve and will be a key driver of our focusand direction over the next three to five years.I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate andthank the management, staff and volunteers for theirdedication and commitment without which our organisationwould not function. I would also like to thank my fellowBoard members for their ongoing support.Kevin McGuinnessPresident, RZSSAWild TimesFinalsPresident’s Report– 2 of 2

As always the whole team of staff, volunteersand wider supporters have been hugely committed andengaged. The President, Kevin McGuinness has thankedeveryone in his report; I have mentioned a selection of thehighlights across the whole organisation, its sites, teams andoutreach work.Starting with the highest profile project, the pandas. Theynot only continue to attract a significantly larger audiencefrom further afield with beneficial economic consequences tothe state at large, they are getting older and closer to startinga family. The teams of keepers and vets have ensured thatWang Wang and Funi are in great condition as they feaston bamboo provided by horticultural colleagues. Funi isnow sporting a patch of clipped fur on her lower abdomenso she can get used to having an ultrasound probe pressedto her skin. She lies patiently as this is rehearsed so thatwhen we believe she may be pregnant we can try to locate atiny little panda foetus….or two. For this moment to arrivewe will have to help the two youngsters navigate courtshipwhen they are both mature. Recent events suggests for WangWang this will be late 2012. Our research collaborationwith Chinese colleagues is proceeding well and it is a greatprivilege to be sharing these amazing ambassadors forconservation with visitors. Elsewhere at Adelaide Zoo weare continuing to maintain a beautiful site with its landscapeand plants.A wet year has meant that the new plantings aroundthe front entrance have grown well and there has beenoverwhelmingly positive feedback about the legacy providedfor future generations. The Living Collection Teams havebeen experimenting with ways to share how they enhancethe lives of the animals in their care through behaviouralenrichment and this has led to an expanding program oftalks and demonstrations to visitors. Our mission to savespecies from extinction and connect people with nature isserved by ensuring that as many visitors as possible leavehaving undergone an emotional transformation and there isno better way than being introduced to wonders of nature bya passionate, enthusiastic and knowledgeable person, like akeeper. Of course this is in some ways simply extending theexcellent work already happening with volunteers, guidesand members of the education teams providing a uniqueopportunity for people to connect with our animals andtheir conservation.The same kind of experiences are available at Monarto and,as a site, it continues to offer a wonderful sense of visitingAfrica whilst being set in an Australian Mallee reserve.The habitat restoration across the original Monarto siteis providing a long term legacy for local native species ofplant and animal and will allow for wonderful educationaland inspirational connection with our natural heritage. Inaddition, we are part of the Aboriginal Learning on Country(ALOC) scheme with an expanding program in successiveyears. Monarto is unique! There has been something of ababy boom over the last 12 months with ‘Digger’ our whiterhino born on ANZAC Day, hence his very appropriate name.A single, female lion cub has also been born and she will be agreat visitor attraction once assimilated into the group.CEO’s Report– 1 of 3

As soonas our team of expert primate keepers feels that we havesufficient stability in the group we will stop contraceptionin two or more females and the dream of having the naturalbehaviours of a family group will eventually be realized.Jane Goodall, DBE, was in South Australia as part of a 50year anniversary of the start of her research in the wildand, in addition to giving a sell-out talk at the AdelaideShowground, she visited the chimps and their keepers.Again she remarked on how if she were born a chimp intoday’s world she would rather be at Monarto than in thewild. She was hugely impressed.The contribution of the native species team at Monarto (nowworking with colleagues at Warrawong) is growing apace.The breeding of warru, Tasmanian devils and support ofother endangered species may be behind the scenes andinsufficiently recognized but it lies at the heart of all we doand why we exist. We marked ‘Threatened Native SpeciesDay’ on 7 September as it is the anniversary of the death ofthe last known thylacine. The presence of our ambassador,actress Teresa Palmer, and hundreds of primary schoolstudents wearing specially designed t-shirts listing all theextinctions and currently endangered native Australiananimals made it a media event. It is remarkable that acountry so proud of its distinctive landscapes and faunaand flora can be so inactive when it comes to protecting itsheritage for future generations. Monarto can act as a way toactivate people.The ‘Wild Africa’ project plans, put simply, entail theprovision of overnight, safari-style accommodationsomewhere across the 1,500 hectares at Monarto.This will attract greater numbers of Australian tourists.The access to Mallee scrubland and close encounters withendangered Australian species will also attract overseasvisitors to complement the extra 30% of Adelaide visitorscoming into South Australia to see Giant Pandas. We see thatMonarto is as much about ‘Wild Australia’ as ‘Wild Africa’.The first year of our management of the operations andbusiness at Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary has been oneof learning the deeper history and philosophy of the siteand sharing the beauty and seasonal transitions withvisitors. The highlight for many people is a sighting of oneof the only platypus in mainland South Australia. BecauseWarrawong is a sanctuary for native species within a feralprooffence, humans are the ones who are entering theanimals’ space, their habitat. We cannot guarantee thateveryone will see everything but we can guarantee a uniqueglimpse of a vanished Australia. And with two new babyplatypus the chances of a special experience is appreciablyincreased. There is work to be done at Warrawong toensure the ecological management of a precious place andto reinvigorate it as a business without spoiling it. WithMonarto it acts as a headquarters for our fieldwork and thissuite of programs, entitled ‘Conservation Ark’ for the lasttwo years, continues to grow.CEO’s Report– 2 of 3

The thought ofspending a night running across paddocks and wranglingwombats to the ground may not appeal to everyone,especially if followed by measurements and researchrecording into the early hours of the next morning andthen, if lucky, some sleep on a swag in an old shearing shed.However, it is proving increasingly popular as a corporateteam building activity or even reward! Our ConservationArk experiences offer an authentic encounter close up to andoften right in, nature.Across our many areas of work we are science-based so wecan make informed decisions and have points of view thatcan help influence policies and practices on a large scale. Inorder to achieve this we work closely with many colleagues inlocal and national universities and we also provide a strongsite and resources for teaching and training. Giving studentsan opportunity to get involved in front line conservationactivity is very popular and we find the enthusiasm andenergy of young people an inspiration. This extends to theeducation and schools programs we operate across all threesites.Approximately 80,000 school students enjoy a structurededucational experience every year and many of them havethe uniquely available chance of spending a night amongstanimals in the wild and at a zoo. We work closely withgovernment colleagues to maximize our curriculum supportand are proud of our contribution to the state in this field.The final comment to make relates to partnerships.Obviously an organisation like Zoos SA with over 30,000signed up members and hundreds of thousands ofvisitors every year, has a multitude of relationships and‘conversations’ with people. Our aim is to connect peoplewith nature and we believe we do help transform manyattitudes whilst people have a fun time. We have a wonderfulgroundswell of warm support from the SA communityand its many sectors. Business people like the fact that wecan act as an enormous billboard for their brands, othercharities see the synergy possible in supporting creativityand multicultural links and all groups that support childrenunderstand that we provide a very special place to allowplay, imagination and love of nature. We aim to be around tocontinue this important work for many, many years to come.Chris WestCEO, RZSSAProfessor of Zoology, University of AdelaideProfessor of Biodoversity Conservation, Flinders UniversityCEO’s Report– 3 of 3

So what have we been up to….GrantsConservation Ark has had a big year with grant fundedprojects with more than $1 million coming in to support arange of projects across the country. This included fundingfor on-going projects and relationships such as annualfunding for yellow-footed rock wallaby work at Aroona fromAlinta Energy, a second instalment of support from BeachEnergy, continued support from the Ian Potter Foundationfor brush-tailed rock wallaby work in the Grampians, alongwith payments for the Federal Government Jobs FundKimberley Project.Several new projects and relationships were also fundedincluding: red-tailed black cockatoo conservation in theSouth East with the local National Resources Management(NRM) Board, restoration work at Monarto funded byMurraylands NRM and Caring for our Country, wombatdistribution and abundance work funded by Departmentof Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) andMurraylands NRM, Tasmanian devil captive breedingwith University of Tasmania and continuing work ondeveloping the Centre for Wildlife Health from the IanPotter Foundation.KimberleyA $1.5 million project supported by the Federal GovernmentJobs Fund in one of Australia’s last wilderness areas – theKimberley – has been our largest project of this year andhas kept us all on our toes with new challenges every day.The project has seen a wide range of activities undertakenincluding biological surveys at 80 sites across 2 millionacres in the north Kimberley, managing fire regimesand controlling introduced herbivores in the area, aerialphotography and spatial analysis of survey sites, undertakingenvironmental education camps at both Kalumburu andAdelaide for indigenous students at Kalumburu RemoteCommunity School, and collection of traditional ecologicalknowledge and facilitation of cultural activities withinKalumburu community.As part of this project Robyn Bishop also joined us this yearto help review and coordinate policies and procedures …which was particularly helpful with this project as nearlyevery identified ‘risk’ in the Risk Assessment occurred – beit fires, flood, cyclones, funerals, staff losses, bogged vehiclesand being chased up trees by bulls. Despite the challenges,the outcomes of the grant were met, although not alwaysin ways originally envisaged, given the remote area andunseasonal weather, but often providing benefits muchgreater than anticipated.All up another successful year for grant funding – onethat has kept us busy delivering a variety of projectsaround the country.Conservation Ark – 1 of 4

The feral control workhas been removing weeds from the native vegetation, andalso controlling numbers of rabbits and kangaroos – bothof which have shown a vast increase in numbers in the lastyear with a good year for plant growth. The revegetationhas focused on creating buffer and infill around existingremnant, as well as creating different habitat types towhat remains by focusing on the sandy loam soil betweenthe cheetah and wild dog exhibits to plant a differentrange of plant types. By creating a variety of suitablehabitat, and removing feral vertebrate and weed species,the eventual aim is to reintroduce species that were oncefound in the Monarto area. The project is also providingincreased opportunity for people to get involved in handson conservation work with field days once a month andvolunteer days three times a week.Southern hairy-nosed wombatsOne of the key focuses for the southern hairy-nosed wombatwork this year has been looking at better understandingwhere wombats are across SA and what challenges are beingfaced by people living with wombats on their properties.Elisa Sparrow and David Taggart have been visiting theNullarbor, Eyre Peninsula, Gawler Ranges and YorkePeninsula to visit landowners, run community workshopsand conduct surveys.Brush-tailed rock-wallabiesThe third release of five animals into Moora Moora Creektook place in October. This brings the total number ofreleased animals to 21 but sadly there have been a numberof deaths amongst the released population, so there are onlyseven known to be alive. Despite these set-backs there isnew life coming through with some wild born young beingfound in pouch during trapping.Yellow-footed rock-wallabiesThe annual trapping at Aroona Sanctuary, Leigh Creek sawthree new animals caught, along with some animals not seenfor up to three years, including one 10kg male. All sexuallymature females carried pouch young. Feral control continuesfour times a year, with the latest trip showing the continuingneed for protection with a high number of goats removedfrom the Sanctuary. Ian Arthur was awarded Leigh Creek’sAustralian Citizen of the Year Award for his voluntary workwith the yellow-footed rock-wallaby project.Conservation Ark – 2 of 4

Trapping in February found one of theoriginal females brought over from New Zealand is still alivein her new home at Innes.WarruIt has been a very exciting year for the warru recovery withthe first group of warru returning to their homelands in theAPY Lands. This first group of five were born at Monarto,and have returned to a hardening off enclosure, or warrupintji, in the APY Lands. Here they can learn what life is likein the wild while still protected from introduced predatorsand with reduced competition from other grazers. A furthersix animals, these being the original founders who camefrom the APY Lands to Monarto as joeys, are planned to jointhem later in the year.Red-tailed black cockatoosA new project has seen us start work in the South East ofSouth Australia with red-tailed black cockatoos. This projectemploys a local farmer from the Lucindale area to facilitaterelationships and work with farmers on projects to supportblack cockatoo conservation as one of the flagship species inthe area.The project has worked with 45 properties to develop habitatplans for their farms and on-ground work to help protectand restore approximately 500 hectares of stringybark andbuloke, the black cockatoo main feeding trees. This projectprovides support for a network of farmers supporting blackcockatoos from 75 properties around Lucindale who gettogether regularly, with several farmer events being held.Giant PandasWe have been working closely with Prof Huang Yan, whocame to Australia with Wang Wang and Funi, on the captivebreeding and research components.Several staff visits have been undertaken with veterinaryand keeping staff visiting Bifengxia to learn about pandabreeding in preparation for Wang Wang and Funi’s firstbreeding attempts.Conservation Ark – 3 of 4

This wasattended by guests from seven countries – China, USA,Austria, Thailand, Japan, Singapore and Australia. Thiscelebration and visit highlighted some of the reasons weare all working on this project – to have a healthy, breedingpopulation of pandas which helps the long-term survival ofthe species in the wild.PolicyThere has been a major development with the on-goingcampaign we have been involved with in regards to Palm Oil.The Truth in Labelling Palm Oil Bill has passed the Senateunopposed and was expanded from food, to include allgrocery products, including cosmetics, detergents and evenbiofuels. Hopefully next year we’ll be able to report that thebill has passed the House of Representatives, becoming lawand making it mandatory to label Palm Oil in all productsin Australia.This year we were also joined by Vicki-Jo Russell who isworking as Conservation Policy Coordinator. Vicki-Jois working on a range of projects both internally andexternally, including stakeholder reviews, developing aset of position statements, assisting with the strategic planand conservation directions and also playing an active rolein contributing to several state and federal policies. Thesepolicies include the SA Strategic Plan, NRM Legislationreview, Protected Areas on Private Lands Policy, ParksVisitor Strategy (DENR), Adaptation Framework for SAand Sustainable Population Australia Strategy.Other projectsConservation Ark staff have also been involved in obtaininga number of grants to support their activities and alsosupervising a number of student projects.

All thisinformation will help breeding season decision makingand forms a large part of Lynley Johnson’s mastersresearch project.Two other interesting cases have highlighted the issuesof foreign objects making their way into animal exhibits.The first one is Tasco our male sealion who was found tohave coins in his stomach being ground away by the rockswhich are normally there. This potentially releases toxicamounts of metal into his system and may contribute toa general malaise seen. The second case was foil foodwrappers found incidentally by x-ray in one of our malering-tailed lemurs, fortunately it appears to have passedwithout clinical symptoms.At Monarto Zoo the chimpanzees have been ever active withthe males coming to terms with the females’ arrival and thedominance shifts that ensue. Unfortunately Galatea, one ofthe females, suffered a broken arm which required surgicalintervention but chimps are notorious for not taking theirmedicine and the arm repair was in real danger of breakingdown. Further surgery and an altered treatment regime haveseen massive improvement but the case is ongoing.Two cases at Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary come readilyto mind: George a Galah who greets visitors at the entranceunderwent surgery to remove a tumour and has recoveredwell, and Doug a carpet python with scoliosis thatresponded to a course of acupuncture and ongoingmuscle relaxation medication.Veterinary Conservation Programs – 4 of 5

Analysis ofdetailed records for mains water, waste to landfill andrecycling, bore water and power have helped the zoo tofine tune daily practices to improve its effective use ofnatural resources.Issues identified by Green Teams have been moved intothe work plans of the Environment Officer, although moremajor upgrades have been constrained by the tight financesexperienced at the zoo.The introduction of commercial rates for Trade Wastes(sewage) discharges in January 2011 has prompted closerattention to the volume and salinity of our liquid wastestream, and monitoring of this has commenced. Futureinvestigations and anticipated changes in the rating regimewill be considered further to look for potential savings.Mains water sub-distribution systems have been meteredand data logged since October 2009 and have shown areduction of 23% (15,000 kl) for the 2010 – 11 financial year;there have also been significant savings in water used forirrigation. While some of the savings were due to the mildand wet summer, improvements to irrigation schedulinghave been made that should contribute to longer term watersavings. Of course ongoing vigilance by allstaff to reduce water waste has the greatest influence onour water bills.The four groundwater bores (also logged since October 2009)have had annual use reductions of 163,000 kilolitres (72%).Zoos SA has been working with the Adelaide NRM Boardto document storm water management infrastructure atthe Adelaide site. The NRM Board has also indicated thatit hopes to be able to establish a partnership with ZoosSA into the future and will consider contributing eitherfunding and/or expertise that will enable the Adelaide Zoosite to maximize opportunities for system upgrades, waterefficiency improvement, on-site runoff capture/reuse andother storm water management activities.The revised waste management system which aims to reducethe quantity of waste sent to landfill, and reduce costs, hasbeen successful; the reporting function has enabled Zoos SAto track its environmental footprint and make improvementswhere possible. Financial year 2010-11 has seen a recoveryrate of 74%. The goal for 2011-12 is to lift the currentrecovery rate to over 80%. Continued awareness of theimportance of sorting waste will be required from staff andthe public to achieve this goal.Green Team – 1 of 1

Degraded areas of vegetation are being restoredand wildlife corridors planted to reconnect Monarto Zoo tothe Rocky Gully Forestry Reserve.All internal fences have been removed and the first 2.5kmsof perimeter fencing has been erected.Twenty tonnes of metal has been removed from the site,together with a considerable amount of farm ‘garbage’.A major feral control program has been established whichhas resulted in the virtual elimination of rabbits from theproject site. Some foxes and hares are still seen but numbersare being kept under control until the perimeter feral prooffencing is complete.More planting is planned for next year and we acknowledgethe ongoing support of the Eastern Hills Murray PlainsCatchment Group for their contribution to the revegetationand restoration of the project site.As a means of weed control, and a source of income,sharecropping of some areas of the property has beencarried out by local farmers.New speciesFor many years it has been impossible to import African hoofstock due to the lack of a specific Import Risk Assessment(Australian Biosecurity) for this group of animals. Recentdevelopments however now enable us to import overseasanimals via New Zealand after a twelve month quarantineperiod. A cooperative of Australian and New Zealand zoosare now planning an importation of animals under this newgovernment legislation. The first species targeted will beNyala – a beautiful horned antelope from Southern Africa.Other animals are planned for importation should this pilotprove successful and these will include other new species andspecimens of existing species currently held in Australia toprovide much needed new genetic material.A weed control program has also been established andcentres on the removal of species such as boxthornand bridal creeper together with the ongoing control ofhorehound and other broadleaf weeds.Seventy hectares of pasture has been planted this year inpreparation for the stocking of African grazing animals.Wild Africa – 2 of 5

All profits go towards supporting thepurchase of modern counter poaching equipment for theRangers responsible for the protection of wildlife in the park.The dramatic increase in rhino poaching over the last fewyears only highlights the need for more support for theseimportant men and women who are trying to stay aheadof modern poaching methods. Kruger is now home to thelargest number of Black and White rhino in the world.The tour also travels through the rest of the 400kms ofKruger and into lower Botswana staying at different campsalong the way.A must for wildlife photographers and animal lovers thistour has now generated over $30,000 towards the support ofcounter poaching of rhinos in Kruger.Borneo TourLast financial year Carla Litchfield (Zoos SA Vice Presidentand Conservation Psychologist) led a tour for Zoos SA andPeregrine Travel to Borneo. The trip included trekkingthrough rainforests and observing wild apes in their foresthomes and orphaned apes in sanctuaries struggling to copewith the sheer numbers of often traumatised infants.It is impossible not to reflect on consumerism ‘gone mad’in Malaysia, with 100+ malls and megamalls in and aroundKuala Lumpur alone. The locals in Sabah pride themselveson ‘1Borneo’- the first and largest Lifestyle Hyper Mallin East Malaysia. Malls in Malaysia are seen as ‘lifestyledestinations’, where people ‘hang out’ communing withdesigner man-made goods rather than nature. The battle tosave the forests and our closest relatives is really a battle toreduce our human unsustainable ‘over-consumption’of everything.What makes these overseas conservation tours differentto others is that it is an educational and life-changingexperience, with a portion of costs donated to a conservationproject within the region visited; in Borneo monies are givento the Kina batangan Orangutan Conservation Project.Overseas Conservation Tours – 1 of 1

As well as providing amazing animal experiences,each site has a range of education programs and resourceswhich connect students with nature using passionate staff,interactive learning activities and accurate information aboutanimals, the environment and conservation.This year Monarto Education has created some newprograms, including ‘Rangers’. The team is developingthe building at the Rhino bus stop to become the RangerStation, modelled on ranger stations found in Africanwildlife reserves and conservancies. Activities undertakenby students also reflect those of real rangers, with animalidentification, behaviour observations, record keeping andhabitat maintenance and rehabilitation work.The MAD (Make A Difference) for Wildlife action programhas also been taken up by many schools, resulting in asurge of mobile phone recycling, bead sales and drink canrecycling to support conservation organisations in Africa.At Adelaide Zoo, the International Year of the Foresttriggered the team to develop ‘Forest Trails’ for teachers touse with their classes. The main focii of these trails are therainforests of SE Asia, the temperate deciduous forests ofChina and the mallee shrubland of SA.With the gradual introduction of the new AustralianCurriculum, we have begun a review of our current programsand resources to identify links with the new curriculumand any relevant areas of the curriculum that we do notcurrently support.The Australian Science curriculum is now complete and ispart of the process. Next year the new Geography curriculumwill be finished and will also be involved in the review.The Department of Education and Children’s Servicestransported a pair of surplus classrooms to MonartoEducation last November, and these are located near theVisitor Centre, awaiting renovation. It is possible that theywill be relocated to a more suitable position with respect toservice connection before they are refurbished. As there iscurrently no indoor education area at Monarto, this buildingwill be a valuable asset for Education in the future.During June this year, Zoos SA, in collaboration with theJane Goodall Institute, hosted a Youth Forum for SAschool children.Because numbers were limited by the availability of shelteredpresentation areas around Adelaide Zoo, 30 South Australianschools, all of whom have a history of active environmentalor conservation work amongst their student bodies, wereinvited to send eight student representatives to the Forum.Twenty two schools were involved at relatively short notice.Conservation Education – 1 of 3

The eight workshopsfeatured a range of interactive sessions, run by experts intheir fields, which covered conservation issues with local andoverseas themes. These environmentally-active studentsparticipated enthusiastically in the workshops; their inputwas greatly appreciated.Later in the day, the students all shared their workshopexperiences with the rest of their school’s representatives.Back at school, each group also reported back to theirschool communities.After lunch, the Forum was addressed by Dr Jane Goodall,DBE, who clearly inspired the audience with her storiesand perceptions about conservation and the difference thatindividuals can make.The day was facilitated by Ian Walton whose experience inworking with students in a forum setting and using the ‘KidsTeaching Kids’ philosophy was invaluable in contributing toa very successful and motivational day for all concerned.Curriculum change in the senior years has seen a new SACEsubject, ‘Research Project’, created at Year 12 in SA. This hasincreased the number of students approaching Educationstaff at Adelaide and Monarto Zoos for interviews aboutthe animal or conservation based topics they have chosen.We already have many of these requests from Tourismstudents and others each year. Processes have beendeveloped at both zoos to ensure that these requestsare managed fairly and efficiently.The Zoomobile has been flourishing under sponsorshipfrom McDonald’s. Further sponsorship was obtainedfrom the Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges NaturalResources Management Board. This was specifically toprovide free presentations, with a focus on local species andenvironmental action, to schools and kindergartens in thisNRM region. The Zoomobile was based at Monarto Zoo forthree weeks of the year, and this enabled visits to schools,kindergartens and aged care facilities in the Murraylandsand Eastern Fleurieu region. The other country visit whichis becoming a regular part of the Zoomobile calendar wasto Appila for the annual Appila Springs Environmental Day,which serves many schools in the mid-North area. Boththese ‘tours’ were possible because they included suitableovernight accommodation for the animal team.This year, Zoos SA has been invited to several ScienceTeachers Expos; we are supporting these, wherever possible,with our attendance. It is a chance to make contact withover 100 Science teachers at once and as these events aregenerally held after the school day is over, most of the on-siteteaching commitments at the Zoos are not affected.Last October Emma Still, from Monarto Education, attendedthe International Zoo Educators Conference in USA. Afterthe conference she spent several weeks, in her own time,visiting some amazing environmental education places inUSA, and in particular spent a lot of time working withthe team at Earth Education Institute in Pennsylvania.She picked up a lot of ideas for activities, games, programsand processes there, and some of these are already beingincorporated into the Monarto programs.Conservation Education – 2 of 3

Jan Martin is an experienced librarianand her professional input in the project has been invaluable.The Monarto Zoo staff Library at Kalibar was given a makeoverto update the collection and meet the needs of keepers.The Zoo and Aquarium Association (ZAA) Libraries Networkhad a re-haul that included an update of the membership andemail list, and the completion of a list of library resources.The ZAA Libraries Network comprises libraries from theZAA institutions. ‘Library’ is a flexible term that includesany collection of educational material (in hard copy or digitalformat, and online), not necessarily arranged in a formallibrary setting, managed by a zoo staff member. The managermay or may not have formal library training; the onlyessential requirement to be a ‘ZAA Library Manager’ is thededication to support professional development for the zoostaff and volunteers.The network, formerly known as ‘ARAZPA LibrariesNetwork’, started at Adelaide Zoo in 1992 as the brainchildof the Society Librarian Ms Margaret Apsey to facilitate thesharing of resources among Australian Zoos. The networkis vulnerable to staff turn-over and funding from the parentorganisations, and over the years it has waxed and waned.It was therefore very pleasing to see a very useful list oflibrary resources take shape through the efforts ofnetwork members.The Library thanks all staff, volunteers, and members of thepublic who enriched the library by contributing material andsharing their knowledge.Library – 1 of 1

This has helped improveand professionalize all aspects of our public presentations.As well as developing the presentation skills of staff, we havealso worked closely with the animals so that they are trainedin an appropriate manner, either to be able to interact withpeople or to develop behaviors that will enable keepers andvets to view and work with them in the best manner.At the new front entrance we worked closely with theEnvironment Institute of the University of Adelaide todevelop a soundscape as you proceed from Frome Roadto the entrance precinct across the ETSA ConnectionForecourt. This soundscape of noises ‘from the wild’ iscomplemented by the launch of the ‘water is life’ audio tourof the zoo that takes people on a journey along the RiverMurray and through the zoo. As part of the soundscapelocal writer Sean Williams developed a water poem thatmay be heard playing across the ETSA Connection Forecourt.Overall, this is a special opportunity that combines talentsand resources to create innovative ideas in education andresearch, to promote conservation and better managementof our unique natural ecosystems. The new water poem andWater Soundscape are excellent first products from our newpartnership with the Environment Institute.The Frog Atlas allows you to learn more about some ofAustralia’s frogs, while helping to build an interactive map offrog distributions. This was developed in house last year andwe have now improved it by designing and building a state ofthe art mapping system for the frogs.

Only a nearby tree softens the straightlines and right angles of the platform, oddly described asa ‘pagoda’. ‘Mary Ann’ seems eager to move away and walkalong the equally new Elephant Walk: no more the coursegirthing a circular block of land, but a straight path thatnow ran along the eastern boundaries of the zoo. “The newwalk represents a distinct improvement on the old one”, theannual reports comments. “It is enclosed from end to endwith elegant reinforced concrete posts and rails, and it ispractically monolithic in character.”Among the new buildings were the ‘semi-detached’ WombatHouses: “(... a crescent-shaped building …) divided in sixseparate apartments” each “furbished with an earth bath” inwhich the animals delight to scratch and amuse themselvesin the summer”. The facility was for the use of “variousspecies of the fast-diminishing family”: words conveying thesame concerns that, a century later, underpin the Southernhairy-nosed wombat research program supported by theSociety.During the 1910-11 financial year the Government hadgiven an extra £1,500 towards reconstruction works, and anadditional grant of £700. “These sums were most welcome,owing to the fact that for many years the Society was fromtime to time retrenched so heavily that the buildings andfences fell into such a bad state of repair that it will takesome years to place them in proper order again”, reads theannual report. “The Council desires to express its thanksto the Government and Parliament for the generosity andto express hope that the interests of the Society will beconsidered in an equally kind spirit in the future.”The generosity of the Government was equalled by thedonors’, foremost among them the Duke of Bedford. HisGrace donated a fine pair of Caucasian Red Deer and ofCashmirian Deer that proved to be a great attraction.This exciting financial year was marred by two sad events.First the death of Mr. T. R. Bowman, who, “almost from theinception of the Society, held office as a Vice-President. Hewas a frequent visitor of the Gardens, and, in many ways,helped forward its objects.”History – 1 of 2

These have since bred and we are now movingprogeny interstate. A new adult female Orangutan wastransferred to Adelaide Zoo for breeding purposes. We alsobred from our existing female Orangutan, unfortunatelythis young did not survive. A similar situation occurredwith our White Cheeked Gibbon, but both species showedgreat promise with maternal care and barring medical andcongenital complications next time around we should seeoffspring successfully raised.At Monarto our Southern White Rhino produced a male calfand the lion pride a single female cub.

This report is provided annually to track theprogress of the animal collection and is prepared byLindell Andrews.As the human population grows and impacts at an increasingrate on plant and animal species across the globe, zoosand aquaria are becoming critical for the survival of manyspecies, and an integral part of in situ conservation programsfor many others. While individual animal collectionsare often too small to be of much value to long-termconservation, cooperative international and/or regionalex situ breeding programs form large, viable populationsthat can make a difference. Aside from contributing to theconservation of a species, these ex situ programs also provideanimals for public educational and/or exhibit opportunities;provide research collections from which to gain basicknowledge of animal biology and husbandry; and providefund-raising material. Furthermore, if managed correctly,there is the potential to provide demographic and geneticinsurance populations.Adelaide Zoo and Monarto Zoo, as members of the Zooand Aquaria Association (ZAA) are committed tocooperatively managing their animal collections in orderto promote sustainability and to contribute towardsspecies’ conservation.Whilst Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary is not yet a memberof ZAA, it principally operates under the same policiesand procedures as the other Zoos SA properties, with anydifferentiation based largely upon its unique environment.Following The World Zoo Conservation Strategy, there are twoconsiderations that are important in the process of choosingspecies for ex situ management within Australasian zoos:1. What species will best serve the broad-basedconservation goals of ZAA zoos?2. What are the capabilities and strengths of ZAA zoos inregard to their knowledge, experience and resources?Zoos SA CollectionsAs zoos develop through time, and move from ‘stamp’collections of the past to centres of small populationmanagement, cooperative breeding programs andnaturalistic displays, there is often some concern thatcollection diversity will decrease. Effective regional planningcan ensure that each ZAA zoo is able to continue displayinga healthy diversity of animals, despite populations of speciesgrowing in size to ensure long-term viability. Currently,across Adelaide and Monarto Zoos, and WarrawongSanctuary, there are over 3100 specimens representingalmost 310 different species, but with all propertiesmaintaining their independent identities due to the speciesthey hold and the manner in which they display them.Living Collections – Status Of Collection – 1 of 16

These categories are designed to indicate the role orstatus of a taxon in the regional collection, whether or notregionally coordinated management is being applied, and ifso at what intensity.During 2010, a simplification of the ASMP SpeciesManagement Categories was endorsed, reducing the numberof categories by eliminating the management levels of thepast. The new management categories are:• Conservation Program (CP) – involves a species that hasa documented role in a formal recovery effort. Typicallymanaged to a high level of genetic and demographicrigor. Typically, a Captive Management Plan would bedeveloped for the species in this category.• Population Management Plan (PMP) – involves thosespecies that are of regional/global significance due totheir threat status or strategic importance to Australasiancollections. All will be managed to a high level of geneticand demographic rigor. For all exotics and some nativespecies, a Captive Management Plan would be developed.• Monitored Species Program (MSP) – largely involves NZfauna where NZ government requirements specify theneed for some level of reporting around a majority ofspecies. Also applies to a smaller number of other specieswhere monitoring of the population dynamics or specifichusbandry issue is considered useful.• No Regional Program (NRP) – for all taxa either notassessed or not currently deemed a regional priority forintensive management at this time.• Not Recommended (NR) – a species formallyrecommended by the relevant TAG and endorsed by theASMP to not be acquired by member institutions. Thiscategory should ideally be used infrequently.• Phase Out (PO) – a species formally recommended by therelevant TAG and endorsed by the ASMP to phase out bymember institutions. Following more than a decade offormal collection planning, this category should be seenless frequently.Living Collections – Status Of Collection – 11 of 16

ZIMS went ‘live’ at Zoos SA properties on 2 June,2010, however after three months, it was determined thatZIMS could not yet meet our operational requirements, andARKS was re-instated as the primary animal database atAdelaide and Monarto Zoos. However, we continue to assistISIS in their development of ZIMS. Furthermore, we are inthe process of transferring our daily recording process frompaper records to electronic records. This should allow for aneasier transition when ZIMS does eventually come on board(and contribute to saving significant amounts of paper).There are currently four keepers maintaining five ASMPstudbooks at Zoos South Australia.

Continued development of the Bambooplantation at Bolivar has seen it expand in size and withgood breaking rains this past season; strong growth wasrecorded for all species under cultivation. Jason Copeland(Bamboo Coordinator) has continued to collect bamboo fromprivate residences throughout the past year but with goodgrowth of the plantation over the next 12 months we hopeto become self sufficient in the very near future.The internal green wall at the Sanctuary Function Centrewas one area that has failed to live up to expectation andwill be removed by November this year and relocated to theconcrete wall surrounding the new family zone adjacent tothe Wisteria Café. Whilst we had high expectation for thiswall to become a feature of the function centre poor lightingand little ventilation has created a climate that would notsustain an internal garden. The relocation of this wall willenable the team to demonstrate to members of the public thewonderful attributes these walls can offer and having alreadyestablished several outdoor walls located throughout the zoowe are confident that this will become a talking point of thegeneral public who view it whilst enjoying a coffee at the newcafé precinct.Members of the Horticulture Team are also now assistingwith another of our properties - Warrawong, during the pastsix months team members are regularly conducting workingbees to beautify the car park and surrounding front entrance.Dani Shallow has become a permanent weekly visitor leadinga team of volunteers to start the enormous task of clearingweed species throughout the Sanctuary and eventually startthe revegetation process to restore the original habitat.In Adelaide there have been several areas re-landscaped witha view of continuing to maintain our high standards andoffer the members of the visiting public the opportunityto immerse themselves in our beautiful garden setting. Wenow have the weather on our side after a prolonged droughtperiod and plan to undertake quite a bit of remedial workover the coming months; so I ask that all you gardeners outthere, get out and enjoy and “Happy Gardening”Horticulture – 1 of 1

This approach generates greater cutthrough,is more efficient and enables cross functionalcollaboration to produce integrated marketing solutions.This methodology will be greatly enhanced into the future.In addition to the introduction of quarterly campaigns,the need for integrated marketing across all disciplineshas become a priority. Developing campaigns which includetraditional marketing, online, PR, and other teams suchas visitor experience, membership/sponsorship and eventsgives us the opportunity to promote the same message atthe same time.To reflect this approach the areas of Public Relations andOnline were restructured and integrated into the Marketingteam within 2010 – 11.The key quarterly campaigns implemented during theyear included the introduction of four female chimps toMonarto. This campaign was designed to raise awarenessof Monarto Zoo and provided consumers with a compellingreason to visit. The chimps arrival was effectively used toraise awareness for Monarto Zoo in general. The marketingactivity included heavy Public Relations and an integratedabove the line campaign including bus backs, full page pressadvertisements and posters. The campaign also employeda significant web presence to drive consumers to bookadmission tickets on-line.The campaign resulted in increased levels of attendance atMonarto Zoo and significant PR exposure of the new femalechimps arrival to the group.Marketing – 1 of 2

CONTENTSYear In ReviewWild TimesCommunications & PartnershipsCommunicationsPartnershipsCommunity PartnershipsFundraisingMarketingTourismMedia PartnershipsMembership And Animal AdoptionBequestsGrantsVisitor ExperiencesEvents ReportVolunteer ProgramsHuman ResourcesFinancial ReportAdmissionsFinalsTo highlight another example, the ‘Re-Member me’quarterly campaign was specifically designed to raiseawareness of membership. Although some externalmarketing took place the zoo retail locations were utilisedto effectively promote the benefits of becoming a member ofthe charity. This campaign included the introduction ofsemi-permanent banners within Adelaide Zoo, traditionalprint media, creative displayed on-site via LCD monitors,online advertising and the use of audio messages at thefront entrance.Towards the end of the financial year saw the launch of acampaign designed to cross promote the zoos within thezoo environments. Effectively Monarto Zoo was heavilypromoted within Adelaide Zoo and visitors to Monartowere targeted with Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuarycommunications. Given visitors to the zoos are alreadyengaged with our brand and conservation work, the use ofon-site marketing to raise awareness of the other locationsmade strong commercial sense. This campaign continuedinto the 2011 – 12 financial year.In addition to ongoing tactical marketing throughout theyear, 2010 – 11 has seen much work going on behind thescenes to address the strategic marketing objectives of thecharity. Much of this work has derived from the strategicplanning process implemented during the year, and focuseson clearly communicating to customers (and wider audience)who we are and what we stand for. The results of this workwill be seen during 2011 – 12 and will aim to address andclarify several misconceptions. Fundamentally, the aim is toraise awareness of the charity behind the zoos, communicatethe massive amount of conservation work carried out by thecharity and seek greater donations and sponsorship.Marketing – 2 of 2

The focal point for membership inAdelaide Zoo moved from the Heritage Hut (inside the zoo)to the Santos Conservation Centre (outside the zoo) so thatvisitors could join as members before entering the zoo. Forthose whose decision to join is made whilst touring the zoo,membership can be purchased at any of the retail storesacross all sites. Members also continue to renew and join upvia the Zoos SA website.All members are mailed three times per year with the ZooTimes magazine, carrying details of member only eventsincluding the Members Tour that occurs each month. Allmembers are invited to attend these tours.The number of people adopting animals increased inthe last year with individuals and schools showing themost significant increases. Adoption drives, includingintegrated marketing campaigns (website, Zoo E-newsletter,promotional screens within the zoo) combined with babyanimals have assisted the recruitment of animal adopters.The number of corporate members and companies also grewas corporates combined a search for staff incentives with adesire to support the Society.The new database (Thank Q) for zoo supporters, includingmembers has now been in use for just over one year andthe Relationships Team continues to review data input andextraction processes in order to achieve maximum dataaccuracy and integrity.Prospect data entered onto the database and an offer toreceive an email newsletter (without being a member)has led to 17,500 people receiving the monthly ZooE-Newsletter. Thus member only offers and informationabout upcoming events are promoted to non-members toencourage recruitment.Membership And Animal Adoption – 1 of 2

We have asmall but very dedicated group of ‘Rovers’ at Warrawongand we will continue to recruit in this new program areaas it’s proving very rewarding for the volunteers and theirassistance and knowledge is very well received by visitors tothe Sanctuary.Our Mallee Minders and Pot-A-Zoo Volunteers have givenvaluable assistance to the Zoos SA Horticulture Dept andour volunteer numbers have continued to increase acrossthe properties, including Wild Africa. During this periodwe have introduced the Mallee Minder Restoration group toassist with the Mallee Restoration project headed by BrionyHorner at Monarto.The Warrawong Bush Brigade (Bushies) are also a small butvery dedicated group who assist each Wednesday to restoreand conserve the remnant vegetation of the Sanctuary, thisincludes weed eradication, planting, pruning, seed collectingand propagation and general cleaning on site. The work ofthe Bushies was certainly made that little bit easier withour successful grant application for equipment through theVolunteer Support Grant from the Office for Volunteers. Wewere successful in obtaining $1,000 which enabled us topurchase a wide range of tools including, wheelbarrows, agarden cart, multi folding ladder and platform, secateurs,rakes, shovels, weeders, pruning saw, buckets, bins andprotective gloves. The equipment is very helpful for theBushies to assist with the revegetation project at Warrawong.Our Information Volunteers and Guides across Adelaideand Monarto Zoos have done an outstanding job to provideour ever increasing number of visitors with informationand enjoyable tours along with assisting with New MemberTours, Afterhours Walks and Offsite Speaking requests.

The success of the new functioncentre (the Sanctuary) and the Santos Conservation Centreas venues together with a focus on venue promotion led toa 90% increase in function and event attendance.Approximately 29% of visitors were from out of state, withover 7% international guests demonstrating the attractionof the Giant Pandas.2011 2010 VarianceAdmissions (Paid) 272,098 285,209 -4.6%Education 55,596 66,320 -16.2%Members 81,232 72,715 +12.0%Other Admissions (Free) 39,415 46,806 -15.0%Functions 37,041 19,541 +90.0%TOTAL 485,382 490,591 -1.0%Total attendances for the last five years were:09/10 08/09 07/08 06/07 05/06490,591 369,549 370,410 400,790 380,940Monarto ZooA decrease in paid admissions of over 3% but a significant32% increase in membership admissions was observed.
