Dateline: September 126, 2025. 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 talking about my life, and then remind you all to donate to Shots for Spots! If you can help with Shots for Spots, please do so here: https://kindest.com/831498-shots-for-spots
Our headline story this week looks at the passing of animal trainer Ryan Easley, and how there seem to be two completely different takes on who this person was and what their legacy is.
Then it's time for Zoo News stories featuring births from the St. Louis Zoo, Cincinnati Zoo, Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, the Central Park Zoo, Drusillas Park, and more!
We say goodbye to animals at the Topeka Zoo, Denver Zoo, Central Florida Zoo, Milwaukee County Zoo, Dallas Zoo, and Bristol Zoo Project.
We have additional Zoo News stories from Mote Marine Lab, Miami Seaquarium, the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Roger Williams Park Zoo, and a wonderful quote from Jane Goodall.
Conservation News stories include a cool solution for melting arctic ice, why rock stacking is dumb, a comedian helping tigers, and another rediscovery!
And in Other News, we have a sweet story and a silly story.
