What a loss for the Zoo. Dr. Shumaker was a visionary who continued the stunning upward trajectory of our zoo established by his predecessor Mike Crowther.
Welp, no more finger food.
Yeah. Seems to be that his real problem was his obsession w/ great apes and his injuries stemming from that obsession.
I’m very sorry to see Dr. Rob go. He’s done a tremendous job continuing Indianapolis Zoo’s growth and reputation as a world class conservation facility. He will be missed.
Overall, the zoo has progressed nicely and a job well done although the orangutan exhibit and tram was a bit of a folly and overbuilt.
Our zoo is a real gemstone for the city. Thank you to Dr. Rob.
