The Darwin\u2019s Frog conservation initiative, involving the Atlanta Botanical Garden and the National Zoo of Chile in Santiago, is gearing up to finish installing a captive breeding facility for imperiled Darwin\u2019s Frogs this week at the zoo in Santiago. After months of buying equipment, organizing shipping, and ironing out travel details, we are finally ready to put the equipment into the new facility at the National Zoo of Chile. Everyone is really excited since discussions of this project have been ongoing for years. <\/div>\n
La iniciativa de conservaci\u00f3n de la rana de Darwin, que involucra al Jard\u00edn Bot\u00e1nico de Atlanta y el Zool\u00f3gico Nacional de Chile en Santiago, se est\u00e1 preparando para terminar de instalar esta semana en el zool\u00f3gico de Santiago una instalaci\u00f3n de cr\u00eda en cautiverio para las ranas de Darwin en peligro. Despu\u00e9s de meses de comprar equipos, organizar el env\u00edo y pulir los detalles del viaje, finalmente estamos listos para colocar el equipo en las nuevas instalaciones del Zool\u00f3gico Nacional de Chile. Todo el mundo est\u00e1 muy emocionado ya que las discusiones sobre este proyecto se han prolongado durante a\u00f1os.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Darwins
Darwins frogs suffer from habitat loss and emergent infectious disease, such as amphibian chytrid fungus. Las ranas de Darwin sufren p\u00e9rdida de h\u00e1bitat y enfermedades infecciosas emergentes, como el hongo quitridio de los anfibios.<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The public will be able to see exactly what is happening in the facility as one entire wall of the structure is glass.

We will post updates as we install the equipment and will include images of the process.\u00a0 We hope the facility will provide just the environment required to keep Rhinoderma<\/em> happy and healthy.\u00a0 Right off the bat we would like to thank the folks at ZooMed for their outstanding assistance and support of this project.\u00a0 Linda Reed and the Bagnall family graciously allowed us to use the ZooMed facility in California as a staging area for our equipment before it was shipped to Valparaiso, Chile. \u00a0Not surprisingly, our new facility in Santiago, Chile, is stocked with ZooMed equipment and terrariums, which are also used in the \u201cfrog pod\u201d at the Atlanta Botanical Garden.\u00a0 We\u2019d like to thank our project supporters in the Association of Zoos and Aquariums CEF program, the Shared Earth Foundation, the Chicago Board of Trade, the George and Marry Rabb Foundation, and the Sophie Danforth Conservation Biology Fund.\u00a0 Please stay tuned for more posts!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Publicaremos actualizaciones a medida que instalemos el equipo e incluiremos im\u00e1genes del proceso.\u00a0 Esperamos que las instalaciones proporcionen el entorno necesario para mantener a Rhinoderma feliz y saludable.\u00a0 Desde el principio, nos gustar\u00eda agradecer a la gente de ZooMed por su excelente asistencia y apoyo a este proyecto.\u00a0 Linda Reed y la familia Bagnall amablemente nos permitieron utilizar las instalaciones de ZooMed en California como \u00e1rea de preparaci\u00f3n para nuestro equipo antes de enviarlo a Valpara\u00edso, Chile. \u00a0No es sorprendente que nuestras nuevas instalaciones en Santiago, Chile, cuenten con equipos y terrarios de ZooMed, que tambi\u00e9n se utilizan en la \u201cvaina de ranas\u201d del Jard\u00edn Bot\u00e1nico de Atlanta.\u00a0 Nos gustar\u00eda agradecer a nuestros patrocinadores del proyecto en el programa CEF de la Asociaci\u00f3n de Zool\u00f3gicos y Acuarios, la Fundaci\u00f3n Shared Earth, la Junta de Comercio de Chicago, la Fundaci\u00f3n George y Marry Rabb y el Fondo de Biolog\u00eda de Conservaci\u00f3n Sophie Danforth.\u00a0 \u00a1Est\u00e9n atentos para m\u00e1s publicaciones!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
