Change is everywhere at the Sacramento Zoo. In June, the

Society welcomed Kyle Burks as our new Executive Director

and CEO. Hearing his ideas and enthusiasm, shaped by his

experience at the Denver Zoo and the Walt Disney Co., we

knew we had the innovator we were seeking to help chart our

future. Kyle has quickly adapted to his new city and its beloved

Zoo.

You can witness change on Zoo grounds with new animals on

exhibit and substantial restroom upgrades. Major fundraising

continued in 2015 for a new exhibit complex, including

renovation of our Reptile House, to illuminate the biodiversity

of the planet. We owe special thanks to the Ingoglia family for

their generosity and leadership in helping to finance the Zoo’s

new Biodiversity Center.

Change is also happening behind the scenes as we prepare

for the next 20 years. In 2010 and 2011, the city and the

Zoological Society conducted a study of the feasibility of

expanding the Zoo or moving it to a new site. After a thorough

community-wide review, we decided to stay in Land Park.

However, to make that possible, we must undertake some

major changes at our 88-year-old, 14-acre home.

Beginning in late 2015, with the Society’s support, Kyle

launched a Master Plan Process. This will provide us a site

assessment of the grounds (and whatever decades of secrets

lie beneath), a cohesive conceptual design of our future

facilities, and an action plan for successfully making those

improvements.

Stay tuned. We’ll be reaching out to the community as part

of the planning effort and invite you to be part of the Zoo’s

transformation for the future.

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD PRESIDENT

“There is nothing permanent except change.”

3930 West Land Park Drive Sacramento, CA 95822916.808.5888

The nonprofit 501(c)(3) Sacramento Zoological Society, formed in 1957, serves as the managing and fundraising organization for the Zoo, providing funds for animal care, education and conservation programs.

Page 3: ANNUAL REPORT 2014 2015 annual - Sacramento Zoo REPORT . 2015. Change is everywhere at the Sacramento Zoo. In June, the Society welcomed Kyle Burks as our new Executive Director

2015 was a meaningful and exciting beginning to my personal

journey here in Sacramento and the continuing journey of our

great Zoo. When I joined the Zoo’s team, I was honored and

humbled – and as happy and thrilled as I have ever been in my

professional career!

I was drawn to this Zoo for a myriad of reasons. It has a solid

record of being a leader in the zoo world, with a rich history

of sound mission delivery. It is strongly supported by the

Sacramento community, hundreds of dedicated volunteers,

and a passionate and professional staff that cannot be

matched. Its financial foundation is strong and growing

stronger.

The Board and I defined the top priorities for the Zoo moving

forward. We laid the groundwork to develop two critical

tools for our future: a new Strategic Plan to help us chart our

course and a new Master Plan to define the exciting future

of the physical campus and animal collection for the coming

decades. These are game-changing efforts that continue

into 2016, and will help us create the Sacramento Zoo of the

future. We retained a world-renowned zoo design firm for

the full-scale (pun intended) renovation of the current Reptile

House into a Biodiversity Center that will celebrate the true

diversity of the animal world.

Planning efforts were by no means the only accomplishments

of 2015. Throughout the year, the Zoo continued to deliver

exciting animal experiences daily, and record-breaking

attendance of over 550,000 guests is great testimony to

the Zoo’s history as a cornerstone jewel in the community.

The generosity of loyal members and visitors helped us

raise more than $150,000 for animal conservation efforts

around the world. And, lest we forget the real stars of the

Zoo, our beloved animal collection continues to receive

uncompromising care as they inspire and delight us all.

Yes, 2015 was a very, very good year.

Kyle Burks, PhD

Executive Director/CEO

“There is nothing permanent except change.”

The Sacramento Zoo inspires appreciation, respect and a connection with wildlife and nature through education, recreation and conservation.

2015 YEAR IN REVIEW

Inspiration. Education. Conservation. Three words sum up the Sacramento Zoo. Just as every visit to the Zoo brings new experiences, 2015 delivered exciting changes.

Dr. Kyle Burks joined the Zoo team as Executive Director/CEO in June, adding his energy, expertise and vision to the organization. Under his leadership, the Zoo continues to thrive as a treasured cultural amenity of the Sacramento region.

The Zoo broke previous attendance records in 2015, connecting with 555,745 visitors who shared quality time with family and friends. With breathtaking Zoo animals as the main attraction, 21,303 additional guests also enjoyed special events ranging

from Wild Affair and Boo at the Zoo to Summer Camp or an Overnight Safari.

The Zoo greeted numerous new arrivals: eight Yellow-footed Rock Wallabies, a Great Horned Owl, three Grevy’s Zebras, a female Jaguar and a male Sumatran Tiger. Births included a Mongoose Lemur infant and two Black and White Ruffed Lemur babies, as well as seven endangered Western Pond Turtle hatchlings.

The national SAFE (Saving Animals From Extinction) campaign launched in May to coincide with Endangered Species Day. The Sacramento Zoo hosts a variety of activities to bring attention to declining species such as the Western Pond Turtle, the only turtle native to California. Through SAFE, zoos and aquariums accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) will convene scientists and stakeholders globally to identify the

2015 YEAR IN REVIEWfactors threatening species, develop Conservation Action Plans, collect new resources, and engage the public on the plight of endangered animals.

It was another busy year in the Dr. Murray E. Fowler Veterinary Hospital ensuring all of the Zoo animals receive the highest quality care. Nearly all animals receive annual physical exams that include routine vaccinations, blood work and twice-yearly fecal examinations. The veterinary staff also provides care for new arrivals at the Zoo while they are in quarantine. Most animals go through a minimum 30-day quarantine period to make sure they are healthy before joining the Zoo’s collection. In addition to teaching veterinary students on rotation at the Sacramento Zoo and in the classroom at UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, vet staff is involved in a number of conservation projects including placing radio transmitters in wild Giant Garter Snakes.

The Green Team, a group of dedicated staff members, implements green practices within the Zoo. ReSoil Sacramento is a community network that collects fruit and vegetable scraps to make rich

compost for local farms, schools and urban gardens. Run by the Green Restaurants Alliance Sacramento (GRAS), ReSoil now makes two weekly pickups at the Zoo averaging 100 pounds of compost per week. With over 500 mouths to feed and a wide variety of different diets, the animals go through a large quantity of fruits and vegetables daily, not all pieces of which are safe for them to eat (stems, pits, peels, etc.).

Kampala Café joins the green effort with a new reusable basket program, saving over 2,000 pounds of waste each year. The Kids Live Well Program, focusing on proper portions and healthy nutrition, now inspires all children’s meals served at the Zoo.

We would like to extend a special note of thanks and appreciation to the 1,745 dedicated volunteers who donate their energy, caring and creativity. In 2015, this hard-working group volunteered 48,392 hours to the Zoo assisting in a variety of departments and tasks. Whether they work with animal care staff, scoop ice cream at a fundraiser, speak with schoolchildren on a fieldtrip, or lend their professionalism to the organization by serving on the Board of Trustees, we thank them for their enthusiasm and passion for the animals and our much-loved Zoo.
