Veterinary Services Case Studies: Examining Endangered Red Wolf Pups
Blaze and Tanner, our two resident adult red wolves, recently gave birth to six red wolf pups.
However, within days of their arrival, two of these six pups were flown halfway across the
country! Why did they become “jetsetters”?




Veterinary Services Case Studies: Madagascar Hissing Cockroach
Roaches are insects – that wear their skeletons on the outsides of their body as strong armor. 
Lincoln Park Zoo led the way as veterinarians proved that an animal’s skeleton could be
inside – or outside! – on a radiograph.

As the nation's oldest zoo, Lincoln Park Zoo's history is as wild and varied as the animals that
reside here. Below, we present a timeline of Lincoln Park Zoo's development, from its inception
with the gift of a pair of swans to its current status as a worldwide leader in animal conservation.
