Project Spotlight: Louisville Zoo Hellbenders! Louisville zoo is committed to conversation and repopulation of struggling species. One of the species they are showing this commitment too is the the Hellbenders, a species of giant salamanders that is currently housed at the zoo. To help with these efforts, Satchell Engineering & Associates worked with their team to design the Life Support System (LSS) for an 8-tank breeding system in the back of house facilities at the zoo. This aquaculture system was created to the needs of the husbandry team and fit within the space constraints of the facility.

We designed these systems to simulate gentle river ecosystems to ensure egg-laying behaviors of the Hellbenders and utilized UV sterilization and precise temperature control within the LSS. We look forward to continuing our work with the Louisville Zoo in the future!
