Golden Lion Tamarin
Tamarin groups actively defend a territory against other golden lion tamarins. They use vocalizations and scent marking during ritualized group encounters for defense so actual fighting does not occur.
We invite you to become a part of an opportunity to dramatically transform the nationally recognized Rosamond Gifford Zoo into a pre-eminent, progressive zoo of the twenty-first century.
Conserving What We Love: The Campaign for Elephants & Primates - Part I
Our next stage of growth includes three projects:
ASIAN ELEPHANT PRESERVE a new home for the zoo's nationally recognized Asian elephant program, that will give our zoo the distinction of having one of the top five programs in the country.
PRIMATE PARK a new outdoor exhibit for several primate species.
GATHERINGS a renovated "green" gathering space for zoo visitors.
Great cities are built upon great institutions and their attractions. The Rosamond Gifford Zoo's new projects are an important foundation for the continued growth of our park, county and region. Imagine our community's pride in having such a world class zoo.
