FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A - FIRST ACCOMPLISHMENT CONTINUED	HERE IS A SAMPLE OF ACHIEVEMENTS THIS YEAR: 1. WCS LAUNCHED ITS 96 ELEPHANTS CAMPAIGN TO STOP THE KILLINg, STOP THE TRAFFICKING, AND STOP THE DEMAND. THE CAMPAIGN, NAMED AFTER THE NUMBER OF ELEPHANTS GUNNED DOWN EACH DAY BY POACHERS IN AFRICA, IS DESIGNED TO BRING TOGETHER WORLD CITIZENS, PARTNERS, THOUGHT LEADERS AND CHANGE law MAKERS TO LEVERAGE COLLECTIVE INFLUENCE TO PROTECT KEY ELEPHANT POPULATIONS AND REDUCE IVORY TRAFFICKING AND DEMAND. in fy 2014, THE WCS 96 ELEPHANT CAMPAIGN HAD 118 PARTNERS (AND GROWING) AND 130,000+ PEOPLE HAD SENT LETTERS TO THE U.S. ADMINISTRATION ASKING FOR A MORATOTIUM ON IVORY SALES. THE CAMPAIGN'S NEXT STEP IS TO PASS STATE MORATORIA LEGISLATION IN THE UNITED STATES AND TO CLOSE LOOPHOLES THAT WOULD ALLOW IVORY TO CONTINUE TO BE TRADED, AS WELL AS WORK WITH OTHER NATIONS AND KEY STATES. 2. ELEPHANT CONSERVATION IS SUCCEEDING IN ASIA. THE WCS INDIA PROGRAM, HAD CONSERVED THE LARGEST WILD ASIAN ELEPHANT POPULATION - MORE THAN 5,000 ANIMALS IN THE WESTERN GHATS OF KARNATAKA AND ADJACENT AREAS. THE WORK INCLUDED STRONG ENFORCEMENT, VOLUNTARY RELOCATIOn OF FAMILIES AWAY FROM ELEPHANT HABITATS, MITIGATION OF DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT IMPACTS, AND BETTER RESOLUTION OF HUMAN-ELEPHANT CONFLICT. 3. WCS IMPLEMENTED A MULTIFACTED STRATEGY TO IMPROVE THE CONSERVATION OF THE ATLANTIC HUMPBACK DOLPHIN IN GABON AND CONGO; STRENGTHENING ENFORCEMENT OF MARINE PROTECTION IN BOTH COUNTRIES IS KEY TO SUCCESS. TO PROTECT ATLANTIC HUMPBACK DOLPHINS AND OTHER MARINE SPECIES FROM BYCATCH, WCS AND CONGOLESE PARK AUTHORITIES BEGAN CONDUCTING ROUTINE AND FREQUENT SURVEILLANCE PATROLS IN CONKOUATI-DOULI NATIONAL PARK WATERS. 4. WCS AND THE REPUBLIC OF CONGO SIGNED A PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT REGARDING MANAGEMENT OF THE NOUABALE-NDOKI NATIONAL PARK. NOUABALE-NDOKI NATIONAL PARK IS ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST PRISTINE NATURAL AREAS AND A HOTBED OF BIODIVERSITY. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT REMAINING STRONGHOLDS FOR GORILLAS AND FOREST ELEPHANTS IN CENTRAL AFRICA. THE AGREEMENT CONTINUES WCS'S HISTORY OF CONSERVATION IN THE REPUBLIC OF CONGO, DATING BACK TO THE 1900'S. 5. WCS worked in Central Africa to identify and implement strategies to mitigate the impacts of THE Ebola virus disease (EVD) on ape populations and to reduce the occurrence of human outbreaks. WCS announced the development of a potential game-changer in the study of Ebola virus: a new method that uses fecal samples from wild great apes to identify populations likely to have been exposed to the virus. This method could redefine the way Ebola virus is studied and improve understanding of the MYSTERIOUS VIRUS' DISTRIBUTION - A MATTER OF GREAT IMPORTANCE TO BOTH human health and conservation communities. 6. WCS UGANDA PROGRAM AND THE UGANDA WILDLIFE AUTHORITY (UWA) COLLABORATED TO PRODUCE AN ONLINE TOOL THAT WILL ALLOW LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS TO ACCESS A DATABASE THAT TRACKS OFFENDERS OF WILDLIFE CRIME IN REAL-TIME AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THE DATABASE WILL ENABLE BETTER MONITORING OF ARRESTS AND IDENTIFICATION OF REPEAT OFFENDERS AND THEIR ASSOCIATES. WCS IS TRAINING UWA STAFF AND THE DATABASE IS EXPECTED TO BE LAUNCHED SHORTLY. 7. WCS helped celebrate National Bison Day with a series of events and social media initiatives in early November. This PAST year, WCS coordinated 19 different events in 15 states. November 1ST was designated as National Bison Day by an official US Senate resolution introduced with the help of WCS and its fellow Vote Bison Coalition members and passed by bison champions in Congress. 8. WCS has prioritized saving sharks and rays as part of a global commitment to promote the recovery of depleted and threatened populations of marine species, halt the decline of fragile marine ecosystems,and improve the livelihoods of coastal communities along the world's oceans. In November, the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries of the Republic of Indonesia and the WCS Wildlife Crimes UniT announced the largest confiscation of illegal manta ray parts as part of a major enforcement action against illegal trade of sharks and rays in Indonesia, home to the largest shark fisheries on earth. 9. WCS played a critical technical role on the designation of Argentina's Pennsula Valds as a biosphere reserve by the United Nations environmental, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Pennsula Valds protects a tremendous variety of seabirds and marine mammals including Magellanic penguins, southern elephant seals and southern right whales and inland species like guanaco and Darwin's rheas. 10. The Afghanistan government established the entire Wakhan District, one of the most remote areas of the country, as the nation's second national park., protecting over 70 percent of snow leopard habitat and bringing services to some of the poorest and most isolated people in the country. WCS has been conducting conservation and governance building work with local communities in the Wakhan district since 2006.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B - SECOND ACCOMPLISHMENT CONTINUED	HERE IS A SAMPLE OF ACHIeVEMENTS AT THE BRONX ZOO AND THE NEW YORK AQUARIUM: 1. THREE Komodo DRAGONS(TWO MALE AND ONE FEMALE), THE WORLD LARGEST SPECIES OF LIZARDS, RETURNED TO THE BRONX ZOO IN THE SPRING OF 2014. Fewer than 2,500 Komodo dragons are estimated to remain in the world, and this is the first time they've been exhibited at the Bronx Zoo since the 1950s. 2. Two giant Aldabra tortoises-which can weigh 500 pounds or more-made their debut at the Bronx Zoo in 2014. Aldabra tortoises can live for over 100 years. Classified as "vulnerable" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), these reptiles are one of just two remaining species of giant tortoises (the other being the Galapagos tortoise). 3. TWO SNOW LEOPARD CUBS WERE BORN AT THE BRONX ZOO IN THE SPING 2014. THEY ARE A PART OF A BREEDING PROGRAM THAT HAS SEEN OVER 70 SNOW LEOPARDS BORN AT THE BRONX ZOO, MORE THAN ANY OTHER ZOO IN THE COUNTRY. WCS ALSO PARTICIPATED IN A NUMBER OF SNOW LEOPARD CONSERVATION PROGRAMS WITH PROJECTS CURRENTLY IN PAKISTAN, AFGHANISTAN AND WESTERN CHINA. 4. Two baby western lowland gorillas WERE born at the BRONX ZOO IN SPRING 2014. The newborns, which are part of a cooperative breeding program to enhance genetic viability of zoo animals, WERE the first gorillas born at the Bronx Zoo since 2006. The babies represent the 14th and 15th born at the zoo's Congo Gorilla Forest exhibit since it opened in 1991. Fifty gorillas have been born at the zoo since 1972. 5. A GREATER ONE-HORNED RHINOCEROS (RHINOCEROS UNICORNIS), OR INDIAN RHINO CALF, WAS BORN IN SUMMER 2013. THIS IS THE 13TH INDIAN RHINO BORN AT THE BRONX ZOO SINCE 1986, and she is one of 56 Indian rhinos in accredited zoos throughout North America. Her birth is part of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums' (AZA) breeding program to ensure the survival of threatened and endangered species. There are fewer than 3,000 Indian rhinos left in the wild, according to estimates. The species is native to the grasslands and swampy areas of northern Indian and southern Nepal, but nearly 70% of the remaining population lives in India's Kaziranga National Park. They are listed as "endangered" by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and "vulnerable" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). 6. THERE WERE A NUMBER OF ADDITIONAL SIGINICANT BIRTHS AND HATCHINGS THIS PAST SPRING/SUMMER AT THE BRONX ZOO: SEA LIONS, GIRAFFES, MARKHORS, FENNEC FOXES, ANGOLAN COLOBUS, TIMOR PYTHONS, KING COBRAS, LESSER BIRDS OF PARADISE AND AN ELEGANT CRESTED TINAMOUS. 7. The Wildlife Conservation Societys New York Aquarium celebrated IN WINTER 2014, the groundbreaking of Ocean Wonders: Sharks!, a 57,000-square-foot building that will house more than 115 species of marine wildlife, including sharks, skates, and rays. This historic event marks the beginning of the rebuilding and transformation of the New York Aquarium, post Hurricane Sandy. 8. THE NEW YORK AQUARIUM WELCOMED A HARBOR SEAL PUP IN SPRING 2014, ONLY THE SECOND HARBOR SEAL BORN THERE IN THE LAST 15 YEARS. THE AQUARIUM HAS THREE HARBOR SEALS WHICH SHARED THE 300-FOOT-LONG SEA CLIFFS HABITAT WIH PENGUINS, OTTERS AND WALRUSES. THE HABITAT IS DESIGNED TO EVOKE THE "NORTH PACIFIC'S ROCKY COASTLINE".
