poll

For a long time I wanted to make a Poll about a certain species, and I was looking for a species that is rare in Europe, but which can be competed and debated about it. This is how I came up with a very beautiful animal that, unfortunately, is not very popular on Zoochat: the giant panda. I only...

Built on the foundations of a modest airport, with the main building turned into the aquarium sector and three private hangars turned into tropical aviaries, the Nimbus Airfield Zoo and Aquarium is open for business. Poll and species list in the comments.

Slightly inspired by the 1992 Sevilla World Expo Site, here is a new fantasy zoo with a modest, but still satisfying, collection. Species list and poll in the comments.

Eighth poll on EDGE bird species: This time it is a contest between two dinosaurian denizens of the South-East Asian rainforests : the Philippine eagle and the helmeted eagle. One is a carnivore and the other largely a frugivore, however, both of these birds are charismatic and both are listed...

Seventh poll on EDGE bird species: This time a contest between little and large: The Somali ostrich vs the straw headed bulbul. Despite the size difference both species share the IUCN conservation status of "vulnerable" due to overexploitation by humans (for the songbird pet trade in the case...

Thought I'd try something a little different from the mammal species poll and move to the EDGE birds. For the first of these polls I thought I'd make it a contest between two of the most iconic and charismatic endangered bird species on the planet: The kakapo and the Californian condor. At...

Another poll in a series for zoochatters to vote for one of two EDGE mammal species. This time it is a contest between two herbivorous heavyweights from Africa and Latin America respectively: the black rhino and the Baird's tapir. Both are odd toed ungulates, both are classified as endangered...

Hello Guys i want to ask what is your Favorite AMNH Diorama? I have never been to the AMNH but on Google Maps you can see most of the Dioramas and you can explore the American Museum für Natural History for Free. By the way my Favorite AMNH Diorama is probably the Leopard stalking the hog, but...

Hello Guys i want to ask you what is your Favorite Zoo Aquarium. I have only included Zoo Aquariums that i have Seen. By the way my Favorite Zoo Aquarium is the Wilhelma Aquarium/Terrarium because it has a little bit of everything, there are sharks, jellyfish, Octopus, crocodiles and many...

Another poll in a series for zoochatters to vote for one of two EDGE mammals. This time it is scaly vs spiky with the the echidna (any species) and the pangolin (also any species). Both are termite-insectivore specialists in terms of their feeding ecologies, both are evolutionarily distinct and...

Second poll of 2021 in a series for zoochatters to vote for one of two EDGE mammal species. This time it is primates and a case of little vs large. Both species are primates (one great ape and the a prosimian) have characteristic red fur, are frequently kept by zoos and are classed as "...

The topic of trophy hunting is highly contested, divisive and emotive issue within conservation. Some conservationists claim that well managed trophy hunting can be of value to wildlife conservation through bringing much needed economic capital to countries which can be reinvested in ecosystem...

This is the sixth installment (only one more to go after this) in a series of polls based on the IUCN 25 Most Endangered Primates. This time featuring the larger New World monkeys mentioned in the document which will go head to head in this poll. Zoochatters can vote based on the primate...

Today's Prehistoric Kingdom Candidates are some of the smaller animals I'd add to the upcoming game. Also, poll; after this issue, which candidates would you rather see? - Avian Adventures - Palaeozoic Pals - Marine Reptiles

This is the fifth installment in a series of polls based on the IUCN 25 Most Endangered Primates. This time featuring two Callitrichid species mentioned in the document which will go head to head: the pied tamarin and the buffy tufted marmoset. Zoochatters can vote based on the primate species...

This is the fourth installment in a series of polls based on the IUCN 25 Most Endangered Primates, this time featuring the old world monkeys of Asia. Zoochatters can vote based on the primate species whose conservation they would like to see prioritized, that they consider to be their...

The primates in peril report "25 Most Critically Endangered Primates on the Planet" is a report by the IUCN that is compiled every two years which as the name suggests documents the primate species that are most threatened by extinction. I want to create a series of polls where zoochatters can...

The crisis facing rhinos worldwide is often in the forefront of environmental news and global conservation efforts at the moment. Three of the five extant species of rhino are critically endangered and the Northern white rhino subspecies stands on the precipice of extinction. However, if we...

Another poll in a series for zoochatters to vote for one of two EDGE mammal species. This time it is a clash of the convergents and a contest of little vs large for these two animals. Both species feed upon ants and termites, are largely solitary and are endangered: the numbat and the giant...

I thought it would be interesting to create yet another poll in a series for zoochatters to vote for one of two small mammal EDGE species. This time these animals have some commonalities being that they are miniatures of their close relatives, exceedingly rare in captivity and "little brown...
