Dateline: July 5, 2024. Rossifari Zoo News is back with a round up of the latest news in the world of zoos, aquariums, conservation, and animal weirdness!

We start off with an unexpected Rossifari Poop Story! We then get to our headline story this week, saying goodbye to Charlotte the ray and trying to look at the situation from a different perspective.

We then get into our births and deaths for the week including births at the Colchester Zoo, the Toledo Zoo, the Devon Zoo, Longleat, the San Diego Zoo, and the Oklahoma Zoo, and deaths from the Columbus Zoo, the Tulsa Zoo, and the Idaho Falls Zoo.

We then move on to our other Zoo News stories. We talk about giant pandas arriving at the San Diego Zoo, the walruses returning to the Indianapolis Zoo, the upcoming exhibit at the Aquarium of Niagara, how Point Defiance Zoo helped save an abandoned kinkajou, and about how a new lightbulb regulation is raising concerns for reptile keepers and owners all across the United States.

In Conservation News, we talk about another new rhino poaching prevention innovation, a mass dolphin stranding, and a conservation win in Texas.

In Other News, we talk about how hippos can fly. No, really. Well, kinda.
