	Zoological Distribution
		ZOOLOGICAL DISTRIBUTION (also known as Zoogeography), the science dealing, in the first place, with the distribution of living animals on the surface of the globe (both land and water), and secondly with that of their forerunners (both in time and in space).
		The zoological regions proposed by Dr Sciater were based mainly on the distribution of the perching birds; but in the writings of Dr Wallace and of later authors mammals were very largely taken into consideration, and in later schemes there has been a similarly extensive use of the evidence afforded by mammalian distribution.
		Zoological evidence of the latter connexion, by way of Antarctica, is afforded by the earthworms of the family Acanthodrilidae, which are unknown north of the equator, although their occurrence in Madagascar may point to a northern origin.

	Zoo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A zoological garden, zoological park, or zoo is an institution where mainly wild and exotic animals are restricted within enclosures, bred and displayed to the public.
		The predecessor of the zoological garden is the menagerie that has a long history from the Middle Ages to modern times.
		Contrary to the classical zoological garden that displays the entire world fauna, some special zoos concentrate on animals of certain geographical regions, on animals of the water or attempt to exhibit their animals in a different way.

	What Are Zoological Regions? by Alfred Russel Wallace
		From the point of view I have now endeavoured to set forth, we may, I think, draw the conclusion that the six Sclaterian regions are natural zoological divisions, because they are separated by barriers of considerable antiquity and permanence, which have led to their being characterised each by well-marked assemblages of the higher animals.
		Not only, therefore, is one set of regions all that is required to exhibit the distribution of the various terrestrial organisms; but, for all purposes of comparative study it is immeasurably superior to the establishment of numerous sets of special regions, constructed so as to accord with the distribution of special animal groups.
		The conception of zoological regions expressed in the views I am now combating seems to me to be altogether erroneous, and to lead to results which are neither useful nor instructive, and far less natural than that which takes account of a variety of characters as the best guides to an approximate equality.

	Glossary
		An emendation that is correct according to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, e.g., the name susani is proposed as a patronym for a woman named Susan; according to the Code the name must be changed to susanae and is a justified emendation.
		A name that does not fulfill the criteria set by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature as a legally described scientific name and therefore cannot be used unless it is subsequently proposed correctly.
		An emendation that is incorrect according to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, e.g., the generic name Hemiberlesea Lindinger is an incorrect change of Hemiberlesia Cockerell according to the Code and is an unjustified emendation.

	Zoological facilities
		Zoos are sources of information on wild animals and their habits, and perform an important function in the preservation of endangered species by participating in breeding programmes and nature protection projects.
		The Government grants subsidies to several zoological facilities throughout the country every year to ensure that Denmark does its part to heighten the quality of zoology and provide facilities of international standard.
		As an extension of new legislation on zoological facilities, a Zoological Facilities Authority was established on 1 July 2000.

	How animals are given scientific names (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		At the 17th Congress of Zoology in Monaco, responsibility for future Codes was transferred from the International Zoological Congresses to the International Union of Biological Sciences.
		The other ranks are not controlled by the code so at these ranks you can choose the names you like (zoologists, with a few exceptions, try to coordinate as much as possible so that there is a minimum of chaos).
		The Commission of Zoological Nomenclature decide that an available name is never to be used as a valid name despite the fact that it might be a senior synonym or homonym.

	Welcome To Marion Zoological
		Prior to this effort, scientific studies and documented field testing of the nutritional requirements for these species had been hampered by a lack of resources, conflicting scientific directions, inappropriate food manufacturing technologies, economic motivation, and a lack of access to collections of animals both in the wild and in captivity.
		By addressing these areas, Marion Zoological has become a world class provider of foods for approximately 200 rare and endangered species of animals.
		Now supplying foods to zoological institutions, private and wild animal collections, and the exotic pet industry, Marion Zoological ships its products to customers on four continents.

	Zoological Park Careers
		Some positions within a zoological institution have an important effect on the lives of the animals, but the individuals who work in these positions don't always have much direct physical contact with them.
		Studying animals in a zoological park, however, is often the best and sometimes the only way to observe and record behaviors that would be difficult or impossible to study in the wild, especially those of very rare or endangered wildlife.
		The information a research biologist uncovers is helpful to the people caring for animals in a zoological park, while also contributing to the understanding of how species in the wild live, and how human activities may affect them.

	Washington, DC--The National Zoo
		The National Zoological Park was planned by F.L. Olmstead & Co., one of the most influential and prolific American landscape architectural firms in history, and its location in the spacious and picturesque Rock Creek Valley marked an important departure from the 19th-century practice of confining zoological collections to limited areas.
		The National Zoo preceded the founding of the New York Zoological Park and Munich's Hellabrun Zoo, and thus may have been the first major zoo to be located in a spacious, landscaped setting.
		The Zoological Park's primary aim was not for the entertainment of people, but for the preservation of endangered animals indigenous to the United States.
