Citizens Lobbying for Animals in Zoos (CLAZ) was an informal organization lobbying to improve conditions for the animals in California zoos, started in 1996 by then 13-year-old Justin Barker. ==Founding==
The organization was started in Sacramento, California in 1996 by then 13-year-old Justin Barker.〔("New campaign is launched to protect SF Zoos remaining big cats." ), Justin Barker, Feb. 20th, 2008.〕 Barker started the organization to advocate for animals in the Sacramento Zoo, which he felt were not well housed or managed. Barker worked with the Animal Protection Institute and the Council for Excellence in Zoo Animal Management to bring media attention to the substandard conditions at the zoo.〔(''Zoo's Care of Animals Criticized: Director Disputes Claims By Current, Former Staff'' ), The Sacramento Bee, May 12, 1996.〕 On March 11, 1996, the Association of Zoos and Aquariums "tabled" the Sacramento Zoo’s accreditation based on inadequate staffing for animal care and inadequate funding for operational and capital improvement needs.〔("Report on Accreditation and Financial Status of Sacramento Zoo" ), Maria Baker et al, City of Sacramento, April 24, 1996.〕 Extensive recommendations were made by the city to address the concerns. Included was the appointment of Gerald Caplan, then Dean of the McGeorge School of Law, to chair an independent review of the accusations of inadequate animal care, which the city stated were not a significant part of the accreditation issues but arose later.〔("Report Back on the Sacramento Zoo" ), David Martinez, City of Sacramento, August 29, 1996.〕 Barker credits the work of the organization for the zoo's accreditation having been revoked.〔("About Justin Barker" ), Justin Barker TV, click on timeline for 1995.〕 CLAZ' recommendation to close the polar bear and cheetah exhibits took place 4 years later.
