Did The San Francisco Zoo Lose It's AZA Accreditation?

I realized last week that results of the Zoo's Accreditation Inspection in January, was due this month.  

The San Francisco Zoo website still posts the AZA Accreditation icon.


The AZA website's list of Accredited Zoo's notates that SFZoo is only accredited through March 2022.



Additionally, when I checked back a day later, I saw this had been posted.  



So, unless I am lacking sensible comprehension of these items, it appears there is a strong indication that our Zoo was not granted Accreditation, and must reapply this month to be considered for re-inspection this winter.  

I called the AZA Accreditation Dept twice, to inquire about the Zoo's status and have not yet received a call-back.  

I would have just called SFZoo and asked, but they like to create illusions, like leading people, including the AZA and their SSP, to believe the Orangutans were having a new home built for them, only to say no money and keep them in caged tubes for eight months.  Oops sorry, I digressed.  So yeah, the SFZoo website still having the Accreditation icon up, is either because I have mistakenly interpreted information as presented on AZA site, or our Zoo is creating another illusion.  

I could have waited, but thought this was all very curious and worth questioning and documenting.   

When I get the Zoo's status confirmation, you know there will be a post about!   Stay tuned.
