Our mob's breeding is overseen by the Species Survival Plan (SSP) program through the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). They analyze the genetics and family history of each animal and make breeding recommendations. Carl is going to fulfill his destiny in Canada! He is being crate trained in the video to prepare for his transport. He crated like a champ this morning to begin his trip! Good luck, Carl!
