Rare Trumpeter Swans
The first known pair of
rare Trumpeter swans in
captivity and the first to be
reported in Nebraska since
1890 are among the many an
imals and fowl that may be
seen at the Pioneers Park
Zoo, according to James H.
Ager, superintendent of the
Lincoln City parks.
The Trumpeter swans were
given to the zoo in 1957 by
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, Ager said. The wild
life service obtained the
swans after they were crip
pled by Nebraska hunters.
Other animals at Pioneers
Park include native Ameri
can buffalos. Bnffaloes have
Inhabited the Lincoln zoos
since 1915, Ager said. Along
with other large animals,
they were moved from the
Antelope zoo to the 75-acre
Pioneers Park zoo in 1932.
Two rock kangaroos an
also be seen at the park.
These kangaroos are smaller
than the normal kangaroo,
Ager explained. One rock
kangaroo was obtained in
1958 through trade with the
Omaha zoo, and the other
was purchased from the Okla-
