[Nhcoll-l] Partnerships between zoos and collections

[Derieg, Katrina]

Dear NHC community,
I am trying to establish a partnership with our local zoo to receive animals and accession them into our collection. They asked for some examples of zoos collaborating with natural history collections. If any of you receive zoo animals at your institution, could you send me any helpful documentation of such a partnership? This could be news articles, primary literature, MOUs, or anything like that. Just want something to demonstrate that this is not novel and there are many successful collaborations.

Thanks in advance for your help.
-Katrina
