Fortunately for the Palm Civet, Lynx, a staff initiative that aims to more effectively connect zoo staff with conservation, has nominated the Palm Civet conservation project as the recipient of over $2,500 raised over the last 12 months.
These funds were raised by social and other Lynx activities at Melbourne Zoo as part of a larger ambition to send zoo staff to conservation programs around the world, particularly south-east Asia.
The plight of the project was brought to the attention of Lynx organisers by Chris Banks (Director of South-east Asian Conservation Programs) and Matt Vincent (Acting Keeper in Charge of Herpetofauna) at Melbourne Zoo, both of whom have close links with Vietnam conservation projects.
