Host Jeremy C. Park talks with Jim Bartoo, Nashville Zoo Marketing and Public Relations Director, who highlights the organization's mission and efforts "to inspire a culture of understanding and discovery of our natural world through conservation, innovation and leadership." Nashville Zoo is a progressive and dynamic zoological park located just 6 miles south of downtown Nashville. With just 90 of 188 acres developed, Nashville Zoo is the 9th largest zoo in the country by landmass. The Zoo is one of the top tourist attractions in the state and has won numerous awards and recognitions for its exhibits and attractions.During the interview, Jim discusses their immersive exhibits that feature an opportunity to walk into other worlds and natural habitats, their focus on conservation locally and globally, and how their diverse team focuses on caring for the animals and creating enriching and impactful experiences for those visiting Nashville Zoo. Jim highlights their new exhibit, Leopard Forest, which is home to Amur leopards, Colobus monkeys, De Brazza's monkeys, Klipspringers, and Rock hyraxes. He then talks about their conservation efforts with the eastern hellbender salamander, and how Nashville Zoo plays a pivotal roll in keeping this species from extinction.He wraps up discussing upcoming events and ways the community can support their efforts, including Zoo Run Run on March 1 and Sips for Species on April 25. Zoo Run Run is a family-friendly winter race that takes runners and walkers on a 5K adventure throughout the Zoo's property, including areas not available to the public. Proceeds from Zoo Run Run help fund the Zoo's conservation work. Sips for Species on April 25 is an adults-only event that lets attendees sip for a cause while enjoying unlimited samples of adult beverages and it features up-close animal encounters highlighting the Zoo's conservation efforts, live music, and local food trucks.Visit https://www.nashvillezoo.org to learn more.https://www.facebook.com/nashvillezoohttps://www.linkedin.com/company/nashville-zoo/

The zoological park located just 6 miles south of downtown Nashville has 188 acres, about half of which is developed. This makes Nashville Zoo the 9th largest zoo in the country by landmass!

This episode Jake Belair, Nashville Zoo and the First VP of The ABMA, discusses another strategy for training behaviors: Baiting. Jake breaks down the challenges of baiting and why it shouldn't be the first option when training a behavior, however, it is still a tool in the training toolkit that has some practical applications. This episode is full of many real life behavior examples with a multitude of species including hornbills, caracals, sea lions, skunks, and clouded leopards. But make sure you tune in for Jake's "Training Tale" about how the trainers at the Nashville Zoo use their heads (literally) during Kookaburra free-flight training. Jake also gives a tease for the 2024 ABMA Annual Conference hosted by the Nashville Zoo!

Zoos are a staple of American culture. They're an enjoyable outing for families, couples and friends and a rare opportunity to see animals that a lot of us wouldn't otherwise get to see. In recent years, many zoos have pivoted to focusing on conservation and animal welfare rather than entertainment. Here in Nashville, the Zoo says that conservation is their mission. But, what does this really mean? Today, we'll learn how the Zoo is working to bolster the hellbender salamander population in Nashville. We'll also learn how the Zoo's work relates to other conservation efforts in the city, and what we can all do to support wildlife and natural habitats in the city.  But first, WPLN environmental reporter Caroline Eggers joins us to talk about the recent heat wave.  Guests:  Jim Bartoo, Marketing and Public Relations Director at Nashville Zoo Sherri Reinsch, Lead Herpetologist at the Nashville Zoo Monika Pretz, Staff Biologist & Pollinator Program Leader at Tennessee Environmental Council Abbey Duncan, Board Member at Native American Indian Association of TN Eleanor Lopez, Board Member at Native American Indian Association of TN This episode was produced by Elizabeth Burton.   Related Reading: The buzz about pollinators Releasing hellbender salamanders back into the wild, Nashville Zoo Meet Penelope and Otis, the newest babies at the Nashville Zoo, Tennesseean

A Middle Tennessee Business PodcastI've known Jim Bartoo going back to my early days in Nashville radio. I have always known him to be at the helm of making sure our Nashville Zoo is marketed to the best ability and always be in a good light in the community. Nashvillians have come to embrace the Zoo since it's opening at its current location in 1997. Jim's biggest challenge is how to attract Nashville's influx of tourists to the Zoo, all while certainly understanding the majority demographic being of the “woo girl” partier type.I suggest something that downtown Nashville desperately needs….an RV resort on the Zoo property. We'll see if that comes to fruition. Follow Jim:https://www.linkedin.com/in/jim-bartoo-4b80377/www.nashvillezoo.org *****SUBSCRIBE/RATE/FOLLOW What's Your Problem?

Newsweek Exposes the Cruelty Behind Breeding White Tigers   I've been working in the area behind Nirvana for the past several days and have had the pleasure of hearing tour guides talking about the white tiger issue.  I have heard the amazement in the voices of the guests as they learned that every thing they thought knew about white tigers was wrong.   I have heard guests try to argue the facts or ignore the new information by proclaiming that they still think white tigers are beautiful.  It has given me a new appreciation for what all of you go through when giving tours.  It especially impresses me that some of you, who are still so new to the knowledge yourselves, manage to be firm in your presentations while still being kind to the guests.   This week a thirty year old secret was exposed in Newsweek, the second largest weekly magazine in America.  Sharyn Beach exposed it in Britannica Online Encyclopedia in March of this year.  It is the same secret that Big Cat Rescue exposed 11 years ago as the first organization to go public with the truth about the white tiger.   What I knew in 1998 was that people could sell a white tiger cub for $60,000 and just about all of the breeders and dealers and zoos were out to breed them.  I had been to facilities such as the one where Shere Khan was born, (Dennis Hill in Flatrock, IN) and where Modnic, TJ & Bella came from (Robert Baudy of Savage Kingdom in Center Hill, FL) and where Auroara had come from (Predators Plus).  What I saw haunted me because I saw many tigers who had horrible deformities;  teeth going in all directions, eyes out on the nose, clubbed feet and lame hips.   These birth defects were primarily in the white tigers, but some of their golden litter mates were affected as well.  I started asking about who the tigers' parents were, who their siblings were, and discovered that people were inbreeding these cats.  They never used that word, but rather would say “line breeding” or “selective breeding” or they would make outrageous claims about how they had “created” a line of white tigers by choosing the best pairings. In 1998 there were only 200 white tigers world wide.  With Siegfried and Roy promoting white tigers as Royal White Bengal tigers the breeders scurried to meet demand.   Especially complicit were the Cincinnati Zoo & the Nashville Zoo who knew that the origins of white tigers only came from severe inbreeding.  It was common knowledge to breeders that there was an 80% mortality rate.  They should have put an end to it right then and there, but white tigers were a novelty and people would pay to see them.  The accredited zoos, who actually keep pedigrees on their tigers, knew that inbreeding was the only way to increase their probability of getting that money making white cub.   In 1998 I still thought that most of the breeders and dealers out there were just ignorant.  I was a member of AZA and had been attending their conferences and meeting their cat experts to find out what they thought to be best practices.  I thought that if the private sector knew better they would behave better and so I spent a lot of time writing articles for their club called the Feline Conservation Federation (FKA the Long Island Ocelot Club).  I was part of their list serve and participated in discussions about exotic cat husbandry in the hopes of helping their cats have better lives.  We had only had the Internet for a couple of years and were still trying to find ways to use it to band all exotic cat owners together for a comprehensive repository of information on best practices.  Our own website had only been up for two years and I was using it as a way of making all of the lessons we had learned available for everyone else.  I figured the reason all of these breeders had so many defective tigers was because they didn't know that they were all so inbred and they were just making it worse by not keeping records.   I proposed all of what I knew about white tigers on our website and suggested that we create a registry of all of the cats in the private sector, along with micro chipping, to make sure that no more cats suffered from such terrible birth defects.  I quickly learned that the people making money off the white tigers knew what they were doing and ignored the agony they were inflicting.   About a year later a veterinarian wrote to me after finding our white tiger page on the Internet.  He said that we were the only people telling the truth and that he had the full story because he had been the veterinarian for the Las Vegas duo for many years, as well as the vet for several large zoos.  He had worked with 250 tigers.  He spent 20 years documenting the origins and malpractice involved in breeding white tigers and had never found a way to make his findings publicly known.  The zoos didn't want anyone to know.  Dr. Dan Laughlin and I spent hours on the phone pouring over the documents he had sent me to convince me of his credentials and his findings.   We launched his letter on our website which culminated in his statement, “…every white tiger in the U.S. is not only the result of repeated inbreeding of genetically defective animals but, even worse, is a hybrid or crossbred animal. Thus, anyone involved in breeding and/or exhibiting white tigers is doing a great disservice to honest conservation and preservation efforts to save the five remaining and endangered subspecies of tigers barely clinging to survival…”   We also quoted Ron Tilson, the head of the tiger species survival plan who said, "The white tiger controversy among zoos is a small part ethics and a large part economics. The tiger Species Survival Plan has condemned breeding white tigers because of their mixed ancestry, most have been hybridized with other subspecies and are of unknown lineage, and because they serve no conservation purpose…"   "However, there is an unspoken issue that shames the very integrity of zoos, their alleged conservation programs and their message to the visiting public. To produce white tigers or any other phenotypic curiosity, directors of zoos and other facilities must continuously inbreed father to daughter and father to granddaughter and so on. At issue is a contradiction of fundamental genetic principles upon which all Species Survival Plans for endangered species in captivity are based. White tigers are an aberration artificially bred and proliferated by some zoos, private breeders and a few circuses who do so for economic rather than conservation reasons."   Our tour guides began sharing this information with our visitors.  We began writing letters to USDA, state wildlife agencies and to the media to raise awareness about the horrific practice of inbreeding to get white tigers.   The breeders, dealers, zoos and circus acts who were profiting from white tigers saw us as public enemy number one.  There was no way they could prove the outrageous stories they were promoting about how these cats came from hidden islands, or were the product of their animal husbandry genius.  If anyone looked beyond the image in front of them, they would find out the truth and that would mean the end of their profits.  White tiger sales began to plummet, both from the over abundance of animals born and because more people were becoming aware of the inbreeding.  I have seen white tiger cubs selling for as little as $1000.00.  I have lost track of the number of adults who were offered to us for free and sometimes people even offering to pay us to take them so they could make space for more cubs.   The people who went from making $60,000 for a white cub to only $1000 for a white cub have no excuse for what they do.  The only thing they can do is to try and discredit us.  That is why they are always attacking us, and me in particular.  I feel for you guys because it can be scary to have people say such horrible things about you, or Big Cat Rescue, if you speak out in a public forum.   Someone asked me recently if the woman who has the REXANO site has a full time person dedicated only to tracking my postings so they can go on there and talk all kinds of trash about me.  Little do they realize that it just makes them look stupid and is actually helping us show the world what kind of person would breed white tigers.   Thanks to the pressure that Big Cat Rescuers have kept on them, the AZA came out with a policy statement against breeding white tigers fairly recently, even though they do not yet enforce it strongly.   It is so exciting to me to see that we have persevered through more than a decade of trying to get the world to see that breeding white tigers (especially) is cruel and unconscionable.  To see Britannica and Newsweek running stories that tell the truth is a HUGE win!  This was the headline caption for the Newsweek story this past week, “Bred for profit, the animals are often cruelly deformed by inbreeding.”  The only reason this is happening is because of you.  No one else was willing to take on the Goliath of zoos, circuses and Las Vegas (where REXANO is based).  The day is coming when no more tigers will be purposely inbred to create a freak for the paying public.  That day is coming because Big Cat Rescuers won't give up until it does.     Inside America's Tiger-Breeding Farms   BY RAVI SOMAIYA ON 7/28/10 AT 11:15 AM EDT   Almost all of America's 7,000 tigers are born and raised here. Reports from tiger farms suggest there are many unscrupulous breeders, and activists allege that the trade is cruel. What's clear is that tigers are often kept in small pens, people die when safety is lax, and the cats are hideously inbred to produce valuable white cubs.   The trade is not illegal, though a recent law bans the sale or trade of big cats across state lines for the pet trade. But breeders exploit a patchwork of state-by-state rules, and loopholes, to continue to sell cubs. People who rescue unwanted or mistreated tigers estimate that the number of breeders might be in the hundreds. Several alleged traders contacted by NEWSWEEK refused to be interviewed, perhaps because in recent years many operations have been shut down by authorities.   One of the biggest, Savage Kingdom, in Florida, was closed by the Department of Agriculture in 2006. Several accidents had occurred there. In 2001 a handyman named Vincent Lowe went into a cage to repair a dangerously worn-down gate. Colleagues had to watch as a 318-pound male tiger, Tijik, "ripped out [his] throat," according to the USDA report. They could not rescue him for fear of being attacked themselves.   The tiger was eventually shot by Savage Kingdom's octogenarian owner, Robert Baudy, who had been in the tiger trade for many decades—he'd even been on The Ed Sullivan Show promoting his animals. "He was from an era before animal welfare," says Jamie Veronica, who is with the charity Big Cat Rescue and went into the farm after it was closed to try to remove and resettle dozens of tigers (all were eventually moved safely). "When he started out, people just saw animals as a commodity, a way to make money." The USDA report blamed Baudy for safety failures that led to Lowe's death. He could not be reached for comment at a number listed for him...   I've been writing my story since I was able to write, but when the media goes to share it, they only choose the parts that fit their idea of what will generate views.  If I'm going to share my story, it should be the whole story.  The titles are the dates things happened. If you have any interest in who I really am please start at the beginning of this playlist: http://savethecats.org/   I know there will be people who take things out of context and try to use them to validate their own misconception, but you have access to the whole story.  My hope is that others will recognize themselves in my words and have the strength to do what is right for themselves and our shared planet.     You can help feed the cats at no cost to you using Amazon Smile!

She's the Education Programs Coordinator, an Education Specialist, an Anthrozoologist, and plans on being the director of the AZA some day: Taylor Ballard. Taylor and I have a wide-ranging discussion about all kinds of stuff, talking about how people think and learn about animals, the almost mystical ability to be loved possessed by some individual animals, and so much more. Also, the Rossifari Poop Story features the Tooth Fairy, so that's definitely worth hanging around for!

Jim Bartoo has been the director of marketing and public relations at Nashville Zoo since 1999. During that time, he has seen the Zoo grow from local awareness to national and international recognition with more than 1.2 million guests visiting in 2019. Before coming to Nashville, Jim spent seven years marketing the Columbus Zoo in Columbus, OH. He is accomplished in all aspects of marketing and communications initiatives across the Zoos owned, earned and paid platforms. Jim lives in the Bellevue area (southwest Nashville) with his wife Carole and two daughters, Emma and Grace. In this episode of Destination on the Left, Jim Bartoo, the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Nashville Zoo, joins us to share his story. He discusses the challenges of marketing a zoo when the destination brand experience is Music City, and he shares the creative solutions his organization has developed to fit into Nashville’s brand. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Nashville Zoo’s Expedition Peru exhibit received top honors in exhibit design by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums Why the women’s bathroom at the Expedition Peru exhibit as well as the men’s room in the Zoo’s Entry Village were named America’s Best Bathrooms by Cintas in 2019 Jim Bartoo’s journey to becoming the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Nashville Zoo How Jim’s role has changed over twenty years with Nashville Zoo What Jim and his team have done to help the Nashville Zoo stand out from the crowd Why Nashville Zoo shifted its focus from the local market to the visitor market a couple of years ago Why construction can create a negative effect on your visitor audience How the Nashville Zoo went from a work-in-progress to a full-fledged destination How Jim’s team responds to actionable visitor reviews Nashville Zoo Jim Bartoo is the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Nashville Zoo. He is a lighthearted and enlightening individual who brings so much value to the table. Amidst the Coronavirus pandemic, a light-hearted conversation that doesn’t harp on the widespread panic is a much-needed change of pace. Jim discusses the challenges of marketing a zoo when the destination brand experience is Music City, and he shares the creative solutions his organization has developed to fit into Nashville’s brand. His perspective on partnerships and collaborations are invaluable, and he has helped bring more than 1.2 million visitors through the gates in the last year. Adaptive Marketing Nashville has a large tourism market and visitors have a certain expectation when they travel there. Being a zoo in the market has been very challenging, but Jim has learned a lot in his twenty years there. At first, it was about letting people know they were there in the first place. The marketing efforts were initially designed to get the local populace over to the zoo to sample what was going on. Discounted or free admission, promotional events, and fundraisers were just some of the ways they managed to draw traffic. But as things progressed, Jim and his team were able to focus on promoting specific exhibits and events at the zoo itself. People became more familiar with it over time, but that does not detract from the challenge Jim faced in separating the zoo from the city. Becoming a Destination When you talk about destination marketing, everything is very brand-centric. DMOs are responsible for fulfilling the brand experience they create and ensuring that the experience a visitor has circles back to the brand itself. But that is difficult to achieve when your experience is not complete. Nashville Zoo struggled to wow visitors while major exhibits were being built because the guests felt as though they were missing out on something. When the Expedition Peru exhibit was completed, however, visitors could finally navigate a continuous circuit of attractions. Jim shifted the marketing focus from building anticipation and began to construct the identity of the zoo as a destination. The zoo is not a place for live music or drinking, so they are not the poster child of the Music City brand. But their hard work and creative marketing have put them on the map anyway.

Kirren Covey graduated with Full-time Web Development Cohort 30. In 2013, I moved to Tennessee to become a zookeeper, my dream job since childhood, and spent over 5 years dedicated to the daily care of animals at the Nashville Zoo. I was driven by my passion for animals and conservation. I loved caring for animals and educating the public about issues I care so much about, but I longed for greater intellectual challenge and more growth opportunities. I'd heard developers in my life discussing their work, always excited by the challenges and problem-solving opportunities it presented. I was intrigued, and with a little investigation I quickly knew that this could be my forever career. I naturally have a logical thought process, enjoy problem solving, and it seemed my strengths in math and science could contribute to my success. What's more, software development presents the opportunity for a true lifetime of learning. Excited by the potential to have a second career that I loved, but that would allow me more growth, I applied to and enrolled in Nashville Software School. I will be graduating in June 2019. I'm learning HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and C#/.NET, among other skills and tools. As expected, I'm being challenged and learning new things constantly. Most importantly, I'm truly having fun and enjoying the process! I remain passionate about animals and conservation, and look forward to finding ways to apply these new technical skills to those fields.

This week I’m in the USA with the start of my USA specials in Nashville. All I can hear is Colin Buchannan’s Song of Australia while riding high on Baylou’s Novacaine – I offered some to Jasmine Rae who said I’ll try it “If I Want To”.. All Kaylens Rain could say is "Don’t Even Go There!" Also tunes from Darius Rucker, Jayne Denham, Lee Kernaghan, Sheryl Crow, in the first USA special from Nashville Zoo all on my REAL Country this week!
