Coolio the Northern elephant seal has arrived. Flown from
California to Pittsburgh, and then transported by truck from the
airport to the Zoo, this almost 500 pound elephant seal is now
adjusting to his new life at the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium.
Although he will not be on exhibit until next year, Coolio is still
in quarantine and being is medically assessed by our veterinary
staff. With every passing day, as Coolio acclimates to his new life,
he will undergo extensive rehabilitation and training that will help
the animal staff to understand his needs while he builds his trust
in their care and attention.
A Northern elephant seal has not been seen at a zoo or aquarium
in North America in more than 40 years. Coolio is a special case
however, that exemplifies the mission of the Pittsburgh Zoo &
PPG Aquarium. Wildlife conservation, animal care, research, and
science are all critical components of the Zoo’s work. Coolio was
born in the wild and found stranded on a beach. A local marine
mammal rescue group in northern California took him in and
began a rehabilitation effort in the hope that he could survive.
Coolio is not an endangered species but a unique and fascinating
animal. When he reaches adulthood, his weight is expected to
reach between 4,000 and 5,000 pounds. Not many institutions
could house and feed such an animal. When the call went out
for someone to take him, the staff of the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG
Aquarium, after much analysis and consideration, responded
to help. It was an opportunity to make a difference and bring
something unique and wonderful to the Zoo.

Seal Rescue 2014

Coolio is on the mend– learning,
acclimating, and getting used to
the sounds and smells around him.

Now this once stranded animal has a chance at
a new life and a new home at the Water’s Edge
holding area at the Pittsburgh Zoo &
PPG Aquarium. While it is not known why or
how he became stranded on the California coast,
at the time of his rescue he weighed a mere 120
pounds. Tragically, as he lay starving and unable
to move, the injuries that he sustained led to
blindness. This made his eventual release back
into the wild impossible. A blind seal in the wild
would never survive.
This young elephant seal’s current weight is close
to 500 pounds and he is growing quickly. He could
reach over 1000 pounds by this time next year. The
next goal and challenge is raising approximately
$15,000 to bring in a marine mammal eye specialist
to examine Coolio’s eyes and consider whether
restoration of any eyesight might be possible.
At this point in time however, our highly trained
veterinary staff here at the Zoo is monitoring
Coolio and working to fully assess him. Currently,
it is uncertain whether Coolio is completely blind
or some restoration of sight might be possible.
The Zoo’s own veterinary staff, led by Dr. Ginger
Sturgeon, has noticed some indications that
Coolio might have limited eyesight or it might be
possible to restore limited sight. Only time and
ongoing specialized examinations will tell for sure.
In the meantime, Coolio is on the mend, learning,
acclimating, and getting used to the sounds and
smells around him. He is learning to recognize his
keepers, using his senses other than eyesight. and
beginning to feel his way around his environment.
The rescue effort and new life for Coolio are
historic. This remarkable story will enable marine
mammal experts an opportunity to observe,
conduct research, train, and expand their scientific
understanding of this species. Eventually, it is our
hope that Coolio will become a regular part of
the Zoo experience. This incredible journey from
California to the Zoo was partially underwritten
by Dr. Terence & Mrs. Kim Krysinski of the Vien
Institute of Pittsburgh who donated funding for
Coolio’s trip.
If you are interested in helping to support Coolio
through his care, feeding, ophthalmic exam, and
veterinary treatment, please contact the Zoo’s
Development Department by calling 412-365-2540

2014 Individual Donors
(Annual gifts received from January 1, 2014 – April 30, 2014)
The Value of
Annual Giving
Annual giving is vital to
the successful operation of
the Pittsburgh Zoo and
PPG Aquarium. Membership
and ticket sales alone do
not cover the cost of all that
we offer in sustaining our
mission. Annual giving helps
to fill this gap. Contributing
to the Zoo plays an important
role in providing care for
our animals, supporting our
educational programs, and
aiding in our on-site and
international conservation
efforts. Thank you to the
individuals on the following
pages for being a part of our
donor family.

We have two very different types of donors to highlight, because
each supports the mission of the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium
in different yet vital ways. Giving or donating to the mission of the
Zoo is always very personal, but the act of giving and the resources
provided by that generosity really make a difference.
Donor Spotlight: The Vein Institute,
Dr. Terence Krysinski
As a member of the Zoo’s Grow Wild Society, Terry Krysinski
is not new to the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium. As his
involvement has grown, so has his support for many important Zoo
projects. As founder of Pittsburgh’s Vein Institute and the Laser
Center, Dr. Krysinski has created a huge following of passionate
animal lovers who work with him and follow the Zoo’s efforts with
interest and a deep and abiding commitment to conservation. He
supports special events too, such as the Zoo Gala with sponsorship.
When Dr. Krysinski heard about the Zoo’s efforts to bring zebras
back and received the appeal for funding to not only acquire
zebras, but to also provide a new shelter area, he stepped up. His
$25,000 donation helps to underwrite much of the acquisition and
shelter reconstruction. While additional funds are still needed to
complete the zebra project, Dr. Krysinski’s generous contribution
was significant. His support did not stop at zebras however.
Shortly after, the Zoo sent out an appeal for help with a wildlife
rescue effort of a Northern elephant seal and Dr. Krysinki offered
to help again. Transporting the elephant seal from California to
Donor Spotlight
Pittsburgh along with specially trained Zoo staff is not a small
undertaking. The estimated cost of the trip was $20,000 and Dr.
Krysinki donated fifty percent of that.
As the needs of the Zoo grow with exhibiting different and
important animals, and as Dr. Krysinki’s passion for all things
wildlife become centered on the efforts of the Zoo, so does his
support. This is the mission of the Grow Wild Society; a group of
people who believe so passionately in the mission of the Zoo that
they continually expand their support of the Zoo. In turn, he
became more intimately involved and engaged with the
Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium.
Thank you again to Dr. Terence Krysinski and the Vein Institute
and Laser Center of Pittsburgh.

Meet Stanley, Pittsburgh Zoo &
PPG Aquarium’s New Octopus
BNY Mellon, the corporate sponsor
of the Zoo’s new octopus exhibit,
helped to name one of the newest
residents of the PPG Aquarium.
PPG Aquarium staff suggested
four possible names and the
BNY Mellon staff got to vote
on their favorite.
With contest votes counted, the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium
has named its new baby giant Pacific octopus Stanley. Thank you
to BNY Mellon employees who contributed their votes to make
the selection. Stanley went on public display in early April and
seems to be enjoying his new home. This popular PPG Aquarium
resident supports the Zoo’s overall mission to foster positive,
lifelong connections between animals and people. BNY Mellon is
proud to be a sponsor of this mission and to provide its Pittsburgh
employees and their families with enhanced opportunities to make
those connections.
New Conservation Collaborations
with Far Reaching Potential
The Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium has a truly international
reach with its coral conservation efforts and the outreach just
continues to grow. Over the past two years, Zoo staff members
PPG Aquarium
Notes from the Field
Paul Selvaggio, Director of
Creative Services, and Bob
Snowden, Marine Aquarist,
were on the road and on
site for the first SECORE
Foundation workshop in
Mexico in collaboration with
Universidad Nacional Autonoma
de Mexico (UNAM), Parque
Xcaret, Comision Nacional De
Areas Naturales Protegidas
(CONANP), and the Instituto
Nacional de Pesca. The group observed and collected reproductive
spawn from three different coral species in Mexico: the endangered
elkhorn coral, Acropora palmata, star coral, Montastraea (Orbicella)
faveolata, and the grooved brain coral, Diploria labyrinthiformis.
Once the spawn was collected, the group fertilized the egg/sperm
bundles, known as gametes, and settled the larvae onto specially
made tiles. Once the corals are settled, they will be used for
restoration efforts and research.
The Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium is taking a leading role
in this conservation effort and this important coral work is made
possible through the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium’s Coral
Conservation Fund. This new exhibit, Coral Conservation, has
been installed near the entrance of the PPG Aquarium and features
coral collected during one of the conservation trips to the Florida
Keys. This new exhibit has been made possible with the support
from the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation. If you would

it’s just business as usual.
First, in order to stand up,
they have to use their short,
powerful front legs to push
their bodies up and then
the back legs to thrust their
bodies forward. Their feet are
turned inward to maintain
balance, so of course they
move at a snail’s pace with a
lumbering side-to-side walk.
When it comes to their love life and mating, males will square off
for the right to mate with a female by standing tall, facing each
other with their mouths wide open, and stretching their necks as
high as possible. The highest head and neck wins and the loser
waddles off to find another female.
An endangered species, there are only about 20,000 Galapagos
tortoises left in the wild. This is the result of poaching, loss
of habitat and the introduction of domestic animals to the
Galápagos Islands, such
as goats, pigs, and cattle,
which destroy tortoise
nests and prey on the
tortoise eggs and young.
Active conservation efforts
are underway however,
working to build up and
protect the remaining
populations.
We hope you’ll stop by
soon and catch a glimpse of our young ones. They’ll be hard to
miss, moving slowly, and soaking up the sun whenever possible.

The Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium’s two
newest residents are taking life slow and easy
in their new home at the Zoo. The Galápagos
tortoises have arrived and they’re in no rush to
do anything but eat, sleep and just kind of stand
around. The species with the greatest longevity
of any vertebrate, our two new tortoises, are still
youngsters at the ripe young age of 20-something.
On average, tortoises live to be approximately 100
years old with the oldest tortoise ever recorded
reaching over 170. In terms of size, males are larger
than females, and will reach at least 500 pounds.
Not too surprisingly, if you have ever watched
tortoises moving about, they tend to do it very
slowly, spending their days lying down, basking
in the sun, munching on grass and leaves, and
napping or wallowing in mud puddles. In the
wild, tortoises will typically eat plants, grasses,
and pear cactus, but at the Zoo, our tortoises will
dine on timothy hay and enjoy a small amount of
grain and produce.
The brunt of many a joke, when tortoises move, it
appears to be a gigantic effort but for the animal,

10. Behind-the-scenes
animal encounters,
a Grow Wild Society
experience.
96 elephants are killed every day just for the ivory. “That is a
staggering and frightening number” says Dr. Barbara Baker,
President & CEO of the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium.
“This means that within ten years one of the world’s most majestic
and well-known animals could be extinct. We cannot stand by and
allow this to happen. We all need to take action today to stop the
illegal ivory trade and end this crisis.”
This is why the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium, a leader in
conservation of African elephants, is proud to support the Wildlife
Conservation Society’s 96 Elephants Campaign. The campaign is
named for the average number of elephants killed throughout the
world every day. Compare that to the number of elephants living
in AZA-accredited zoos; currently there are 166 African elephants
and 142 Asian elephants in zoos within the United States. That
means that in just four days, there are more elephants killed
worldwide than there are elephants living in our zoos.
The 96 Elephants Campaign is working to secure a moratorium
on illegal ivory sales and to reinforce the protection of all
elephants. This organization provides supporters with information
about the link between the elephant poaching crisis and the
consumption of ivory, and the resources to make a difference.
In addition to the U.S. ban on ivory, the 96 Elephants Campaign
is working to supply more park rangers to protect elephants in
the wild. They also participate in the development of intelligence
networks and government operations in the Congo Basin and East
Africa, which are the last protected areas for elephants.
96 elephants
Let your voice be heard. Contact your state Senators and members
of Congress and tell them you want to ban the sale of ivory and
ivory products throughout the United States. Go online and sign
the petition at 96elephants.org.
