Dateline: June 21, 2024. 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 a story about mayflies! You're welcome!  We then do a deep dive into the new EEHV vaccine that is being tested at the Houston Zoo!   We then get into our births and deaths for the week including the first red panda cubs of the season at the Toronto Zoo, beaver kits at Buttonwood Park Zoo, an incredible birth at the Nashville Zoo, four Amur tiger cubs at Longleat, some very special armadillos at the Audubon Zoo, and more. We also say goodbye to a sand tiger shark at the Virginia Aquarium and to Polly, a harbor seal that lived at Maritime Aquarium.   We then move on to our other Zoo News stories.  We talk about giant pandas leaving and coming to Australia, some great transparency from the Tulsa Zoo, amazing revolutionary lifesaving techniques pioneered at Woodland Park Zoo and the Saint Louis Zoo, another animal escape at Cedar Point, a survey about sloths being presented by our friends at Beardsley Zoo, and more!   In Conservation News, we talk about how technology is helping to save cheetahs and how a new DNA study proves that rhino horns have no medicinal properties.   In Other News, we talk about a shark eating a surprising treat! ROSSIFARI LINKS:  www.rossifari.com  patreon.com/rossifari  @rossifari on socials  @rossifaripod on TikTok
