After the winter storm left the Austin Zoo in disarray earlier this month, the San Antonio Zoo stepped in to help.
The Zoological Disaster Response, Rescue, and Recovery was created to help zoos and aquariums recover after natural disasters.
After “After Hurricane Harvey—a natural disaster where San Antonio Zoo led rescue work at Houston Downtown Aquarium and Texas Zoo in Victoria—ZDR3 was formed. It has since become a national asset for zoos and aquariums,” said Tim Morrow, President & CEO of San Antonio Zoo.“We are very proud to say that San Antonio Zoo has responded multiple times in Texas, Florida, and Louisiana in recent years to lend our services and assistance as part of this network,” said Morrow.
