I think Jany is very cute and how come the animals do not relly come out are they shy or is it just bad weather for the animals because they do not relly come out that much on the cam.

It’s great to hear that the San Diego Zoo is taking action on this issue. I have visited the zoo often this summer, as I work in Balboa Park. I’ve noticed that the few signs that offer some information on rainforest conservation (near the Sun Bears and the Orangutans) are a bit outdated and don’t inform visitors about the current situation with the Palm Oil industry. Zoo patrons, myself included, spend a lot of time watching the Orangutans, they have such personality! We really do read those signs, too. Some information there could make a big difference!

From our Marketing Department: We appreciate your comments and are always looking for ideas to improve our guests’ experience. The upgrading of signs throughout the Zoo and the Wild Animal Park is an ongoing process. Our hope is to continually improve the information we display, and your comments help us to do just that!

For the last few years I have been trying, as far as possible, not to buy products containing palm oil. As for bio-fuels, the less said about that the better.

Juan, Thank you for bringing the plight of these animal to the publics attention. I have seen so many specials on the orangutans and the look on the babies faces is heart breaking, just see the mutilation of the mothers is very disturbing. The tigers are a passion of mine since I get to see them when I go to South Carolina and visit T.I.G.E.R.S which tries to preserve endangered species. Keep up the fantastic work.
