Cutaneous injuries stung by jellyfish are not uncommon in human exposed to marine environments. Most of the cases occur to scuba divers, fishermen, and travelers swimming at the beach. The symptoms vary from mild dermatosis to fatal systemic reaction. Some group of jellyfish like Atlantic Portuguese man-of-war (Physalia physalis) provokes acute severe skin injuries with systemic symptoms of nausea, bradycardia, and rarely anaphylaxis. But it is unusual case that allergic dermatitis caused by Scyphistoma which is polyp stage of jellyfish (Aurelia aurita) happened to zoo keepers working at indoor dolphin pool. This case report is about dermatosis with symptoms such as painful, irritant, itching, and erupted skin lesions on the neck and face of zoo keepers working at dolphinarium in Seoul zoo, Korea.

Parrots are common targets for illegal trade because of their beauty and high price. Accurate identification is necessary for the prevention of illegal trade and conservation of parrots. In the present study, mitochondrial markers of cytochrome b (CYTB) gene were used to identify parrot species from Korean zoos. Totally, 27 samples were collected from Seoul Zoo, Cheongju Zoo, and Uchi Zoo. After collection, total DNA of samples was extracted and used for PCR amplification. CYTB fragments were sequenced from all samples examined. The obtained sequences were used for GenBank blast, distance estimation, and phylogenetic analysis. All species were identified using CYTB sequences that determined 27 samples belong to 13 species in 7 genera, and 3 families. Our finding demonstrated the usefulness of CYTB sequences for identifying parrot species in Korean zoos.

Seven male Himalayan tahrs were strongly assumed to have accidently fed on foreign bodies in 2007. At the time, zoo caretakers witnessed missing fence padding, such as carpet, plastic awning, and ropes. The incident occurred the morning after the items had been set up to protect indigenous, wild long-tailed gorals from self injury caused by head butting the steel fence. Adult male Himalayan tahrs were obviously suspected of mostly eating the paddings mainly composed of carpet, thin and long plastic awning, and ropes. Even though they had not shown digestive problems, surgery was determined necessary in order to remove any indigestible foreign bodies. Left flank rumenotomy was conducted on seven male Himalayan tahrs from April to May, 2011. After anesthesia with xylazine, rumenotomy was performed on a concrete floor, with legs and head secured by ropes. No access to water and hay prior to operation for two days was needed to make the surgical procedure done quickly. Two sheets of small hand towels protecting against inflow of ruminal contents were beneficial during surgery. Antibiotics were administered intramuscularly for seven days. No abscesses at the surgical site were found after surgery. Like domestic ruminants, wild ruminants also ingest metalic or non-metalic, indigestible foreign bodies by accident. Therefore, simplified rumenotomy must be developed to apply to those wild animals to lengthen their longevity and to advance the quality of life in captivity. This case report is the first showing how to perform rumenotomy of Himalayan tahr, a wild ruminant, in Korea.

다낭신장병은 신장실질에 다수의 낭포가 형성되는 것을 특징으로 하는 사람, 개, 고양이에서 흔히 있는 유전성 질환으로서, 사육상태의 꼬마하마(pygmy hippopotamus)에서도 몇 몇 증례가 보고되고 있다. 2013년 1월 15일 체중 198킬로그램, 33년령 암컷 꼬마하마의 부검과정 중에 양쪽 신장에서 다낭신장병이 관찰되었다. 한 쪽 신장은 약간 종대된 반면 다른 쪽 신장의 아랫부분은 옅은 황색의 수양성 액체로 채워진 한 개의 큰 낭포가 있었다. 양측 신장 모두 직경 2 mm에서 20 mm의 다양한 크기의 액체가 함유된 다수의 낭포들이 관찰되었다. 상당한 부분의 신장 피질과 수질부가 낭포들로 대체되어 있었다. 현미경 검사에서 낭포들의 안쪽은 낮은 입방세포에서부터 편평상피세포들로 구성되어 있었다. 육안적인 소견과 조직병리학적인 검사로 다낭신장병으로 진단하였다. 본 증례보고는 한국에서 최초로 꼬마하마에서 다낭신장병이 확인된 것이다.

서울동물원에서 쟈넨 염소가 마콜에 의해 임신이 되었고, 세 마리의 히말라얀타알이 같은 종의 수컷에게 잘못 임신이 되었다. 의도적이던 우발적이던 다른 종간에 번식을 시켜 잡종을 생산하는 것은 종보전의 근본적인 원칙에 위배된다. 2002년 10월에 수입되었으며 염색체수가 염소와 같은 60개를 가진 마콜이 우연히 쟈넨과 교미를 하게 되었다. 사육사들의 기록을 토대로 교미날짜를 추정하였다. 히말라얀타알 3수와 쟈넨은 $PFG_2{\alpha}$ 제재 (dinoprost tromethamine) 15 mg을 근육주사하여 성공적으로 유산을 시켰다.

The chemical immobilization in giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis reticulata) remains a challenge because of their size, behavior, and anatomic and physiologic characteristics that commonly create life threatening problems during immobilization. The drug combination medetomidine (MED) and ketamine (KET) was administered by remote injection. The dosages of MED and KET were correlated to the giraffe's shoulder height (SH), become recumbent with a dosage of $114{\mu}g$ of MED and 2.1 mg of KET, $320{\mu}g$ of atipamezole per cm of SH, respectively. After injection of the drugs, initial signs of sedation including ataxia were noticed at 3 minutes followed by lateral recombency at 12 minutes. The mean heart rate, respiratory rate and rectal temperature recorded during the procedures were 55 beats per minute, 48 breaths per minute and $36.6^{\circ}C$, respectively. Atipamezole was administered, after 33 minutes result in death. Assuming that 24 hours fasting times were short and light esteemed of atipamzole adverse effects like vomiting, passive regurgitation.
