Tokyo Friends of the Zoo

Animals and Zoos
Spring 2016 issue (No.702)

In this article about the diet of Hanako, Asian Elephant at Inokashira Park Zoo, we introduce the ideas the staff use to support Hanako, who is elderly and only has one tooth.
In addition, the section "Population Management in Zoos" explains how Japanese zoos select the species they should keep in captivity for the future and what challenges they face.
