Rossifari Zoo News 02/11/22 - The Lacey Act Deep Dive
Dateline: February 11, 2022: Zoo News is back with a roundup of the news from the worlds of zoos and conservation!
In Zoo News, we talk about a rare bird birth, some cool grants given out at the Cincy Zoo, some of the amazing things keepers do to keep animals safe during snow storms, and more!
Then it all falls apart! We spend the rest of the episode doing a deep dive into a piece of legislation currently before the Senate that could have major implications on zoos, aquariums, the wildlife conservation trade, the legal pet trade, and more. It's like Schoolhouse Rocks for adults, and with far more terrifying potential consequences. And less singing. So much less singing.
