The Greater Los Angeles Zoo Assn., or GLAZA, raised $1,209,011 at last weekend’s 38th annual Beastly Ball. Close to 1,000 guests attended the event at the zoo, including Zoo keeper Jennifer Gruenwald with “Grippy” (a gray horned owl); GLAZA President Connie Morgan, left; and Betty White, a long-time GLAZA trustee and host of the event’s program. Chaired by Los Angeles Zoo Commissioner Kimberly Marteau Emerson, the ball celebrated the California Condor Recovery Project and the Zoo’s role in helping to save the California condor from the brink of extinction.
