After a number of reports from conveners, members .enjov.d the message _brought' by• guest speaker Elaine Townshend ByeELAINE TOWNSHEND Did yoU ever think about how much an elephant eats? .according to a friend of mine who for several years was curator at a zoo in England. an- elephant eats - approximately 30 bales of -hay end 60 td 70 pounds of vegetables a day and drinks. 60 galtgns of water. Imagine what the zoo would have to pay to feed. - one elephant for one day. one month. one -,year! And we complain abot our food bills • • Some wild animals are adaptable. as evidenced by wolves that adjust to semi- urban living in •North America ' My friend recalls seeing a beautifulwhite bird at a railway station in Paris. The bird .seemed out of place in its nest amid the cinders.and soot of an old building near the tracks Each day. as the .overland express passed through from-the-Mediferra neap. the bird swooped dos'n to ellick the dead flies from the front of the engine. Now that's adaptability! But not all Wildlife ars as fortunate. and as man ad- vances -further into their natural habitat. many species are nearing extinc- tion. Theprotection given by zoos and wildlife reserves is becoming more important. ,MR. -A -ND MRS. -JACK HODGERT • • Nancy M.

Consider this feed bill Breeding birds and animals in captivity is not as • easy as it sounds. Because the miltes are usually close in family relationship,. their offspring can deverop genetic defects, • such as sterility or weak hearts. Even If breeding and birth are successful, raising the young creates more problems that can la';t for several years. The Scarlet Ivis, for example. takes six to seven years to reach maturity. Native to Venezuela. its young have feathers of a dir- ty brown colour: Each year the colour brightens until the adult birds'obtain their - brilliant scarlet plumage. Wild birds and animals are more liable to breed and rear their young successful- ly in a naturalized environ- ment rather than a clipical Setting. Taking this into ac- count, many modern zoos attempt to provide an en- vironment resembling the natural habitats of the birds, animals and fish. The Metro Toronto zoo, is an excellent concept that gives the animals space in which to roam. and to carry the human visitors the mono -rail was installed. My friend insists that a visit to a zoo should be a learning experience, and therefore the zoo:should not resemble a sideshow. He deplores - facilities that put animals on display and con- siders them only as a means of profit. Animals in zoos often are victimized bysadisticand ig- norant members of the public. who tease them just to make them roar or pelt them with stones just to make them move or feed them miscellaneous ar- ticles, such as plastic bags, that can be harmful if not fatal to the animal. With the economic in- stability n`stability in Canada and other •countries, little. money is available to support zoos and wildlife reserves.
