Sacramento Zoo names new CEO as expansion plans remain uncertain ...Middle East

News by : (CBS sacramento) -

Dan Simon is the new CEO of the Sacramento Zoo.

He's already got ideas for improvements, starting with the front door.

Simon comes to Sacramento after leading a 1,800-acre wildlife center in Texas. The Sacramento Zoo is less than 15 acres, a size that could create problems with maintaining accreditation.

Last spring, the Sacramento Zoo abandoned plans that had been in the works for several years to build a new, larger facility in Elk Grove.

"If we have that extra space, that's going to play a big role in what we think about is going to be the next thing for the Sacramento Zoo," Simon said.

"My goal would be to have something new to see at the zoo every year so it gives families and all of our guests a reason to come back," he said.

"I just think they're really awesome creatures," he said. "Sacramento has a great Masai giraffe herd there, so I'm looking forward to getting more familiar with them."

Other zoo improvement projects are currently underway, including a new orangutan exhibit that will provide the animals more shade and climbing opportunities.
