Hundreds Of Animals Found In 'Zoo From Hell'

It was an ugly scene earlier this week in Rockland County, NY as hundreds of sick and malnourished animals were removed from a home described as a "zoo from hell.”

Now, Robert Everle, the own of the animals, is facing charges he mistreated his menagerie, yet somehow he is still being allowed to keep the animals. Authorities say there may be 300 animals in all, but the sheer number makes it impossible to confiscate them all, so they'll monitor Everle's promise to better treat those left behind.

Study of the Female Dominance Hierarchy of Mandrillus Leucophaeus

In the summer of 2006, newly enrolled in the high school at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, I embarked on the biggest task I had ever done: completing a masters-level thesis. Mandrillus leucophaeus, commonly known as the drill, is an endangered monkey that lives in an extremely small range in northern-western Africa. The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium is one of only four zoos in the United States that house these animals. They were cited as the monkey most in need of conservation.
