Annual Report<br />
A Letter from Thane<br />
Over the past few years we have developed a steady growth in the number of families who<br />
belong to the <strong>Zoo</strong>, and naturally, as a result, we have a higher percentage of members visiting<br />
throughout the year. This is particularly heartening, because not a day passes that somebody<br />
doesn’t stop me out on the <strong>Zoo</strong> grounds to mention something they like about our <strong>Zoo</strong>. Many<br />
say they love getting closer to animals, others really appreciate all the changes we are making<br />
to improve the <strong>Zoo</strong>, and some just like parking in the shade of our new solar panels.<br />
Our goal is to “inspire every visitor with wildlife, every day,” and we work hard to do just that.<br />
We have more animal shows and random animal encounters than ever at the <strong>Zoo</strong>. <strong>The</strong> result<br />
is that the <strong>Cincinnati</strong> <strong>Zoo</strong> is a much more active experience for our visitors, as well as for<br />
our animals. Whether it is the lemurs leaping, the gibbons brachiating, or our two young male<br />
cougars exploring their great new exhibit, there are dozens of opportunities every day to see<br />
our animals doing what they do best, and to learn more about<br />
what we do to keep them happy and healthy.<br />
So, my thanks go to you for belonging to the <strong>Cincinnati</strong> <strong>Zoo</strong>.<br />
We earn our stripes every day of the year, and you are a big part<br />
of our success.<br />
