## [Zoos in the Time of Covid-19](https://www.louispage.com/blog/zoos-in-trouble)

 June 2, 2020 | by [Joe Morrell](https://www.louispage.com/blog/author/joe-morrell)

 

[![profile of  tiger](https://images.freeimages.com/images/small-previews/a12/eye-of-the-tiger-1387073.jpg)](https://www.louispage.com/blog/bid/11633/woven-wire-fence-mesh-used-by-zoos)

**Coronavirus at the Zoo**

A strange predicament for the Bronx Zoo, already under stress for lack of revenue and inconsistent staffing during the phenomenon of Covid-19, was the infection of one of their tigers, named Nadia, at the beginning of April 2020. The Malayan tiger showed symptoms of loss of appetite and a dry cough which was sustained long enough to get the staff curious; they began the difficult procedure of testing the wild cat. The test came up positive for the coronavirus. By the end of April, four other cats at the zoo tested positive. The suspicion is that an employee of the zoo infected the tiger. Nadia, who was bred and born at the zoo, is part of a program to breed the endangered Malayan tiger. This news reverberated around the world, alerting other zoos about changing how the animals in captivity are treated. So strange as it may seem--tigers were added to the list for social-distancing. Apes and a variety of smaller animals are most likely susceptible as well. (Here is a recent video that shows Nadia doing well.) 

 

Sadly, more recently and after having been tested for covid a month prior, 3 snow leopards have died at the Lincoln Children's Zoo in Lincoln Nebraska. 

**Zoos: Dependent on Admissions**

Unlike other establishments, zoos can't simply shut their doors--they've got mouths to feed and a mountain of general care to manage. Zoos are a cultural joy and an expensive habit. Most zoos in the U.S. and across Europe have been closed but are progressively reopening with reservation systems, some social distancing, and masking guidelines slowly being altered. They are, as always, dependent on the community at large to support their existence.

The majority of a zoo's budget is supported by:

- ticket sales
- concessions/refreshments
- gift shop--especially souvenirs 
- even stroller rentals

The expense of feeding, keeping staff, and maintaining the programs that make up the running of a zoo is, well, mammoth. Add medical costs and the situation became dire. Imagine a budget of up to $30,000 a day to pay the bills. Zoos across the country have had to lay off sizable percentages of staff, both full and part-time. At one desperate moment, unthinkable as it may seem, it was suggested that when they run out of food that the smaller animals would be sacrificed to feed the larger animals. Just the idea of this reveals the strained thinking. One director said that shouldn't be likely and that it may simply be necessary to move animals to other zoos, though this was to be considered drastic and to be avoided.

**A Sad Departure**

Because of inconsistent food supply issues at the Calgary Zoo, two pandas have been returned to China as of November 2020. The two pandas, "Er Shun*"* and "Da Mao*,"* required around 170 pounds of bamboo a day, of which the zoo struggled to find sufficient quantities; also experiencing delayed deliveries, much of the bamboo they did receive had rotted en route. These prized pandas cost the zoo upwards of 20 million dollars and preparations for their arrival took six years.  

**Responding to Other Needs**

A challenging by-product of all this was keeping animals occupied without the usual stream of visitors. To offer stimulation for various animals, they visited other parts of the zoo or were being taken on outings, as this video shows:

   

On the positive side, Le Le and Ling Ling at the Hong Kong Zoo have, after eleven years, used the peace of lockdown to successfully mate and are possibly expecting a happy event.

[![two pandas embracing](https://www.louispage.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ilona-froehlich-9jrpML-ipGU-unsplash.jpg?width=321&name=ilona-froehlich-9jrpML-ipGU-unsplash.jpg)](https://www.louispage.com/blog/bid/11633/woven-wire-fence-mesh-used-by-zoos)

If you have a local or favorite zoo now is the time to offer your support. Many zoos are conjuring up fundraising programs to stay afloat flogging T-shirts and such. It may be worth inquiring what the current plans are or simply offer hard cash.

## [Animal Wire Mesh Fencing for Zoos, Parks and Homes](https://www.louispage.com/blog/animal-wire-mesh-fencing-for-zoos-parks-and-homes)

 September 11, 2017 | by [Debbie Page](https://www.louispage.com/blog/author/debbie-page)

[**![donkey behind woven wire mesh](https://www.louispage.com/hs-fs/hubfs/donkey%20behind%20woven%20wire%20mesh.jpeg?width=306&name=donkey%20behind%20woven%20wire%20mesh.jpeg)**](https://www.louispage.com/fences/vinyl-coated-woven-wire-fence)

**Containment or Exclusion?**

There are many different styles of woven wire fence that can be successfully used in zoo displays. These wire fencing products can also be put to use around the home, farm and public areas such as parks and recreational areas. Think of these fences when you have any situation where animals need to be contained or excluded.

[![Cassowary behind woven wire mesh](https://www.louispage.com/hs-fs/hub/10240/file-13060802.jpg?width=320&name=file-13060802.jpg "Wire Mesh Fencing for Zoos")](https://www.louispage.com/welded-wire-mesh/vinyl-coated-vc)

Double-Wattled Cassowary & 2" x 4" woven wire mesh - Birmingham Zoo

**2" x 4" openings, 12.5 gauge mesh -- Large Birds, Dogs, Horses, and Zebras**

Woven 2" x 4" mesh is made with heavier 10 gauge selvage wires running along the top and bottom edge of the fence. This gives the fencing greater strength. Strong 12.5 gauge wire makes up the balance. A third piece of 12.5 gauge wire forms a smooth stiff knot around the horizontal and one piece vertical wires securely holding them together. Knotted construction gives the fence some flexibility making it easier to install over uneven ground. Woven 2" x 4" mesh is available in three different finishes: Class 1 galvanized, Class 3 galvanized and Class 3 black. It can be used effectively with very large birds, other animals such as dogs, horses and zebras and any other animal that requires a strong fence.

Woven 2" x 2" wire mesh fence on sides of display - Franklin Park Zoo

**2" x 2" openings, 16 gauge mesh -- Birds and Small Animals**

Made with the same knotted construction as the 2" x 4" fencing, this lighter weight woven wire fence is made using 14 gauge wires on top and bottom and 16 gauge wires for the filler. As with its heavier brother, the fencing has inherent flexibility. 2" x 2" mesh can be used with birds and other small animals - situations where a lighter fence will be effective.

Woven Deer and wildlife fence - Franklin Park Zoo

**12.5 gauge high tensile wire -- Deer and Wildlife **

Woven from 12.5 gauge high tensile wire, this strong heavily galvanized fencing can be used with many different kinds of animals. All feature spacing between horizontal wires that graduate from small at the bottom to large at the top. Heights range from 4' through 10'. Horizontal and vertical wires are held together with fixed knot construction. Deer and wildlife fencing is available with  a Class 3 galvanized finish. Some heights have a Class 3 black finish. The strength and height make this an ideal fence to use with a wide range of animals.

Thank you so much for your prompt and explaining emails and phone calls. I am very happy with the order and follow through. You are very much on top of your game and the service is beyond excellent.

Eric Pilkington The Austerlitz Club - NY

Thank you for your outstanding service and delivery time! I place orders all over the country, and sometimes it takes three or four days just to get products ready for shipment. NOT AT LOUIS E. PAGE. You guys are on it.

Congratulations on this milestone! When our clients request mesh or welded wire, you are our go-to source! Thanks for being a leader in the industry & one we can reliably count on!
