Tiergarten Nürnberg skrupellos - Vor über einem Jahr hat der Direktor des Nürnberger Tiergartens öffentlich angekündigt, dass er aufgrund einer verfehlten Populationskontrolle, gesunde Guinea Paviane wird töten müssen. Gut, das mit dem Versagen des Zoos hat der Direktor irgendwie anders ausgedrückt. Blabla, Artenschutz, blabla Zuchtprogramm, oder so ähnlich. Wie auch immer, diese Ankündigung löste mehrere Proteste aus. 

Zoos sind eine der wenigen Kultureinrichtungen, wo Menschen aus allen Schichten, allen Ethnien, allen Religionen und allen Lebensabschnitten zusammentreffen. Sie treffen aber zunehmend - und zum Teil berechtigt - auf Kritik. Wir haben heute den lieben Thomas zu Besuch, der im Zoo Dresden für wissenschaftliche und Öffentlichkeitsarbeit zuständig ist, und beschäftigen uns mit der Diskussion um Zoos. Wie funktionieren sie eigentlich und wie wird das Wohl der Tiere sichergestellt? Ist es Tierquälerei, Tiere in Zoos zu halten? Und welchen Beitrag leisten Zoos zu Artenschutz und Forschung? All das und mehr heute!DISCLAIMER: Es ist eine völlig legitime Meinung, Zoos kategorisch abzulehnen. Diese Meinung vertreten wir jedoch nicht. Wir beleuchten Zoos zwar kritisch, sind aber dennoch der Meinung, dass sie eine Daseinsberechtigung haben. Wenn ihr findet, nichts gibt uns das Recht, Tiere in Zoos zu halten, werdet ihr in dieser Folge dementsprechend nicht glücklich werden. In diesem Fall hören wir uns in der nächsten Folge! Küsse gehen raus!

It is unlikely that visitors ever give much thought to what medications might be onsite at their favorite aquarium or zoo or how they are used. The innovation of veterinarians should be celebrated and respected, as medications and healthcare are crucial to good animal care. www.patreon.com/aquatizoo l.semple@magicalvacationplanner.com www.magicalvacationplanner.com/staff/lori-semple

Send us a text "World War Zoos: Humans and Other Animals in the Deadliest Conflict of the Modern Age." University of Chicago PressTo find our more about Michele McAloon: Your host.https://www.bookclues.comWhat happens to zoo animals when war breaks out? It's a question few of us consider, yet the answer reveals profound truths about humanity's moral compass. Professor John M. Kinder takes us on a haunting journey through World War II's forgotten captives in "World War Zoos: Humans and Other Animals in the Deadliest Conflict of the Modern Age." From pandas evacuated during the Pearl Harbor bombing to bears kept in Nazi concentration camps, these stories expose the complex relationship between humans and animals during humanity's darkest hours.The moral questions are unsettling: How do zookeepers justify feeding lions when people are starving? Which animals live and which die when resources grow scarce? The hard decisions made during wartime strip away the educational veneer of zoos, revealing raw calculations about which lives matter most. As Kender explains, "Zoos spend a lot of time creating hierarchies of which animals are more important than others... but the ultimate lesson they send is we care about people more than any animal."Particularly disturbing is the Nazis' weaponization of Germany's renowned zoological gardens. The "German Zoo" within Berlin's larger facility wasn't just an exhibition but a propaganda machine festooned with swastikas. Even more chilling was the Bear of Buchenwald, kept near concentration camp prisoners as a tool of dehumanization—a daily reminder that in Nazi ideology, camp inmates ranked below animals.These historical accounts remain urgently relevant today. As climate change threatens ecosystems and conflicts engulf regions with zoos, we must reconsider fundamental questions about animal captivity. Are traditional zoos justified in the 21st century? Is bringing back extinct species through backbreeding ethical when so many living species face extinction?Join us as we explore this overlooked chapter of history that challenges how we think about zoos, war, conservation, and our responsibility toward other species. Listen now and question your assumptions about our relationship with captive wildlife.

Zoos across the UK are set to roll out major animal welfare reforms aimed at giving their residents a better quality of life

Zuk, Przemek www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Studio 9

John Kinder is the director of American studies and a professor of history at Oklahoma State University. And he is an author. His most recent book is called World War Zoos: Humans and Other Animals in the Deadliest Conflict of the Modern Age. John's book tells a story most of us have never heard: what happened to the world's zoos—and the animals inside them—during World War II. It's a sweeping, deeply researched look at how zoos became sites of propaganda, patriotism, and survival, often at the expense of the animals themselves. But World War Zoos isn't just about the past. It's also a mirror, showing how many of the ethical blind spots that existed during wartime remain with us today. In an age of climate crisis and mass extinction, this conversation asks: what do zoos really stand for—and who are they really serving?      

John M. Kinder is director of American Studies, professor of history at Oklahoma State University and author of the new book, World War Zoos: Humans and Other Animals in the Deadliest Conflict of the Modern Age. He chronicles the horrific effects of war on zoos throughout Europe, the US and the South Pacific and the sometimes heroic efforts by keepers and the public to preserve their animal charges even in times of scarcity and personal starvation. Zoos that were spared bombing still had to wrestle with difficult questions such as which animals should be euthanized when food supplies were low? Or which should be killed to prevent the escape of dangerous animals? Kinder examines the era from the Great Depression through the Cold War and its cumulative effects resulting in the zoological institutions and some of the policies we see today. Animal Care Software

My guest is Dr. Karolina Westlund, Ph.D., a professor of ethology at the University of Stockholm and an expert in animal emotions and behavior who uses science-based methods to improve the lives of animals in human care. We discuss the often overlooked needs of domesticated animals—primarily dogs and cats—and the things we can do to improve their well-being and our relationship with them. We cover how to interpret animal body language, the unique needs of specific dog breeds, and the needs of cats and birds. We also discuss the pros and cons of spaying and neutering and how weaning age impacts a pet's attachment style. Whether you're a pet owner, trainer, or simply an animal lover, this episode teaches you how specific pet behaviors are rooted in their immutable biology—and the simple things you can do to vastly improve your pets' health and well-being, as well as your relationship with them.

Cela ressemble à une blague cruelle. Pourtant, c'est une histoire vraie, bien que surprenante. En Angleterre, certains patients souffrant d'obésité extrême ont été pris en charge… dans des établissements zoologiques. Pas pour être exposés comme des curiosités, bien sûr, mais pour une raison bien plus technique : l'incapacité du système de santé traditionnel à gérer des corps hors norme.L'histoire remonte à plusieurs années, mais elle continue de faire parler. Dans certains cas extrêmes, le National Health Service (NHS), le système de santé public britannique, a dû solliciter l'aide de zoos ou de cliniques vétérinaires spécialisées pour réaliser des examens médicaux sur des personnes en situation d'obésité morbide. Pourquoi ? Tout simplement parce que les équipements classiques — scanners, tables d'opération, brancards — ne supportaient pas leur poids ou leur taille.Dans un rapport rendu public par les autorités sanitaires britanniques, on apprend que des scanners vétérinaires conçus pour des animaux de plusieurs centaines de kilos ont été utilisés pour permettre des examens chez certains patients obèses. Dans un zoo du sud de l'Angleterre, un scanner normalement réservé aux rhinocéros et aux ours a ainsi servi à imager le corps d'un patient humain, pour la bonne et simple raison que l'appareil était le seul à pouvoir accueillir sa corpulence.Ce recours aux zoos n'est évidemment pas une solution banale ni souhaitée. Il met en lumière un malaise plus profond : celui d'un système de santé dépassé par l'évolution rapide des besoins liés à l'obésité. Aujourd'hui, au Royaume-Uni, près d'un adulte sur trois est obèse. Pour les cas les plus sévères, les conséquences médicales sont multiples : hypertension, diabète, apnée du sommeil, maladies cardiovasculaires… Et pourtant, ces patients sont parfois littéralement hors des normes prévues par les hôpitaux.Dans certains hôpitaux anglais, le personnel a même dû faire appel à des équipes de secours spécialisées pour déplacer des patients très obèses, avec des engins utilisés d'ordinaire… pour déplacer des chevaux ou des vaches.Face à cette réalité, certains établissements hospitaliers britanniques ont commencé à s'adapter. On voit apparaître des unités "bariatriques" équipées de lits renforcés, de fauteuils XXL, de toilettes adaptées, et surtout, de machines capables d'accueillir des patients pesant jusqu'à 350 kilos. Mais cela reste coûteux, lent à se généraliser… et encore trop rare.L'image du patient humain transporté dans un zoo pour passer un scanner reste marquante. Elle choque, elle amuse parfois, mais elle révèle surtout un déséquilibre : notre système de santé est encore trop souvent conçu pour des corps "moyens", alors que la réalité démographique évolue rapidement.Alors, oui, certains patients britanniques ont été soignés au zoo. Pas par mépris, ni par manque d'humanité, mais parce que la médecine moderne a parfois besoin… de s'agrandir un peu. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Joe Allen, transhumanism editor for War Room, joins me to explore the future of humanity, the rise of transhumanism, and the evolving role of AI. Will society fully embrace augmented humans, or will there be widespread resistance? What happens to those who reject human augmentation—will they establish “natural human zones,” or could they be marginalized as second-class citizens with fewer rights and abilities? This conversation dives deep into the challenges and ethical dilemmas of our rapidly changing world, exploring how we can shape the future into a healthier, more balanced reality.You can follow Joe Allen at https://www.joebot.xyz/ and you can buy his latest book “Dark Aeon: Transhumanism and the War Against Humanity” at https://www.amazon.com/Dark-Aeon-Transhumanism-Against-Humanity-ebook/dp/B0C9FJQD4V?ref_=ast_author_mpb

Just in time for Passover, Fern Levitt has a message of freedom for Canadian audiences—about elephants. On April 11, her new documentary, Lucy: The Stolen Lives of Elephants, will begin streaming nationwide on CBC Gem. The film casts a harsh spotlight on nearly two dozen elephants owned by parks and zoos in Canada, most notably Lucy, of the Edmonton Valley Zoo, whom protesters have called to be released in recent years due to her age and declining health. To make this film, Levitt spent three years reporting on what she and others believe are irrefutable animal rights abuses. And it isn't the first time she's done it: her last film focused on the mistreatment of sled dogs in Alaska's iconic Iditarod race. After learning that some sled dogs were gassed to death, she couldn't help but draw comparisons to the Holocaust, which had been a previous artistic focus of hers. On today's episode of The CJN Daily, Levitt joins Ellin Bessner to explain why she went undercover to document the treatment of elephants around the world, including Lucy and the approximately 20 living at Ontario's African Lion Safari—whose management she says has since threatened to sue her.

An estimated 700 million people visit zoos every year. Some people see these facilities as a great way to teach people about nature and to save species from extinction. Others think they're cruel and unnecessary. It's a heated debate. And now, as more and more people are watching animal rescue videos on Instagram and TikTok, it feels like the debate is hotter than ever. William Lee Adams from the What in the Word team talks us through the history of zoos, including how England's Queen Charlotte (who was featured in Netflix's Bridgerton) came to have twenty kangaroos, and how zoos have evolved. We also discuss their pro and cons. We hear from Tonya Lander, a biology lecturer at the University of Oxford in the UK, 19 year old animal rights activist Nikita Dhawan, and Delcianna Winders, Director of the Animal Law and Policy Institute at Vermont Law and Graduate School in the US.

Für den Direktor des Münchner Tierparks Hellabrunn, Rasem Baban, ist der Artenschutz ein besonderes Anliegen, das nur in der Zusammenarbeit mit anderen Zoos zu erreichen ist. Im Gespräch mit Bettina Ahne wird Rasem Baban zeigen, welchen Herausforderungen sich ein Zoo heutzutage stellen muss.

In den vergangenen 25 Jahren haben sich wieder Wölfe in Deutschland angesiedelt, nachdem sie zuvor 150 Jahre lang ausgerottet waren. Seit die Raubtiere in Deutschland wieder heimisch sind und sich ausbreiten, diskutieren darüber Naturschützerinnen, Schäfer, Jägerinnen, Politiker, Wolfsfreundinnen und Wolfsgegner: Wie gehen wir um mit einem Raubtier, das wir in erster Linie aus Märchen, Zoos oder Wildparks kennen? Und ihre Meinungen sind so unterschiedlich wie unübersichtlich. Höchste Zeit, sich einen Überblick zu verschaffen! +++Ihr habt einen guten Witz auf Lager?

Story Transcript:Nl: De lucht boven Amsterdam was grijs.En: The sky above Amsterdam was gray.Nl: Er hing een lichte winterkou in de lucht.En: There was a slight winter chill in the air.Nl: Artis Royal Zoo was druk, gevuld met kinderen in dikke jassen, gezinnen en stelletjes hand in hand.En: Artis Royal Zoo was busy, filled with children in thick coats, families, and couples holding hands.Nl: Tussen hen liep Bram, met zijn ouders Sofie en Lotte.En: Among them walked Bram, with his parents Sofie and Lotte.Nl: Dit was hun eerste gezinsuitje sinds de scheiding.En: This was their first family outing since the divorce.Nl: Bram droeg een rode muts en hield de handen van zijn ouders stevig vast.En: Bram wore a red hat and held his parents' hands tight.Nl: Hij droomde van een dag vol vreugde, een dag waarop alles voelde als vroeger.En: He dreamed of a day full of joy, a day when everything felt like it used to.Nl: "Laten we naar de leeuwen gaan!"En: "Let's go see the lions!"Nl: riep hij enthousiast, maar zijn ogen zochten naar iets meer dan alleen dieren.En: he called out enthusiastically, but his eyes searched for more than just animals.Nl: Hij zocht glimlachjes, een gedeeld blik tussen zijn ouders, iets waardoor het gezin heel aanvoelde.En: He sought smiles, a shared glance between his parents, something that would make the family feel whole.Nl: Onderweg naar de leeuwenstop zag Bram dat Sofie en Lotte elkaar nauwelijks aankeken.En: On the way to the lions' area, Bram saw that Sofie and Lotte hardly looked at each other.Nl: Er was een onzichtbare spanning voelbaar.En: There was an invisible tension.Nl: "Misschien helpt een ijsje," dacht Bram, en hij stelde voor om hun favoriete smaken te halen.En: "Maybe an ice cream will help," thought Bram, and he suggested getting their favorite flavors.Nl: Ze stemden in, en voor een moment leek iedereen echt blij.En: They agreed, and for a moment, everyone seemed genuinely happy.Nl: De koude lucht maakte het ijs desalniettemin minder populair, en ze lachten samen over hun bevroren vingers.En: The cold air made the ice cream less popular, and they laughed together about their frozen fingers.Nl: Bij de pinguïns vroeg Bram om een foto.En: By the penguins, Bram asked for a photo.Nl: "Kunnen we er samen op?"En: "Can we be in it together?"Nl: Hij stond tussen hen in, voelde de warmte van hun nabijheid en hoopte dat de glimlach voor de camera oprecht was.En: He stood between them, felt the warmth of their closeness, and hoped that the smiles for the camera were genuine.Nl: Het hoogtepunt van de dag kwam bij het aquarium.En: The highlight of the day was at the aquarium.Nl: De rust van het blauw om hen heen en de sierlijk zwemmende vissen.En: The calm of the blue surroundings and the gracefully swimming fish.Nl: Plots stopte Bram bij de zeepaardjes.En: Suddenly, Bram stopped at the seahorses.Nl: Hij zag hoe ze dicht bij elkaar zwommen, als een paar dat nooit gescheiden werd.En: He saw how they swam close to each other, like a pair never separated.Nl: "Ik wil dat wij ook zo zijn," liet hij het ineens uitglijden, zijn stem vol verlangen en kwetsbaarheid.En: "I want us to be like that too," he suddenly let slip, his voice full of longing and vulnerability.Nl: Het was stil.En: It was silent.Nl: Het geluid van bubbels en stromend water vulde de ruimte.En: The sound of bubbles and flowing water filled the space.Nl: Sofie keek naar Lotte, en Lotte naar Bram.En: Sofie looked at Lotte, and Lotte at Bram.Nl: Sofie knielde neer en zei zachtjes, "Bram, we houden heel veel van je.En: Sofie knelt down and said softly, "Bram, we love you very much.Nl: En hoewel dingen anders zijn, blijft onze liefde hetzelfde."En: And although things are different, our love remains the same."Nl: Lotte knikte.En: Lotte nodded.Nl: "We zijn altijd een familie, op een nieuwe manier."En: "We are always a family, in a new way."Nl: De rest van de dag ging verder met meer dieren, meer gelach en zelfs met een speels sneeuwgevecht bij de uitgang van de zoo.En: The rest of the day went on with more animals, more laughter, and even a playful snowball fight at the zoo's exit.Nl: Bram voelde een verandering in zichzelf.En: Bram felt a change within himself.Nl: Zijn familie was anders, ja, maar er was nog steeds warmte, nog steeds liefde.En: His family was different, yes, but there was still warmth, still love.Nl: Toen de zon onderging en ze de dierentuin verlieten, keek Bram naar hun schaduwen die samen op de grond vielen, anders maar samen.En: As the sun set and they left the zoo, Bram looked at their shadows cast together on the ground, different but together.Nl: Hij glimlachte en wist dat hoewel de dingen veranderd waren, het oké was.En: He smiled and knew that although things had changed, it was okay.Nl: Samen hadden ze een goede dag gehad, en dat telde.En: Together they had had a good day, and that counted.
