Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium

Dave Smith, formerly of the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut, has joined the staff of Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium in Tacoma. His expertise with seahorses already is being tapped as the zoo staff prepares for opening "Once Upon a Tide," a seahorse exhibit, in May. Smith, 27, is a certified scientific scuba diver and will take part in research dives as well as dives in the North and South Pacific aquariums. Dr. Karen Goodrowe, general curator, is being honored for her work on a conservation project involving the endangered black-footed ferret. She co-authored a paper that won the Paper of the Year Award for 2002 from Zoo Biology, an official publication of the American Zoo & Aquarium Association.
