Happy Animals, Tough Challenges

"It was rough… 3 months we were closed - $15M in earned revenue – GONE."

Bert Vescolani, President & CEO, Denver Zoo

Since I was a young boy I’ve loved the Zoo.  In 5th grade after school I’d sneak into the Buffalo Zoo by hopping a hidden fence, and I’d just watch the monkeys.  Interviewing Bert Vescolani was a thrill for me – so many questions… about managing the financial challenges during a 3-month Covid total CLOSURE, about keeping animals, about the business model.
