At Disney Studios, Baribault learned from a world-class storyteller. Now he's in charge of telling the zoo's stories to the world
On a clear, crisp morning this week, Paul Baribault was once again drinking from an information firehose. The native of La Cañada Flintridge has been gulping from it ever since being named head of San Diego Zoo Global.
Most of the vegetation looks suited for a dry climate like San Diego’s; cactus-like shrubs, trees with thick trunks and stubby leaves, and spiky bushes that give an unmistakable warning not to touch. There’s also a small tree,Some of these plants are quite rare, including one particular cycad, a grouping of primitive treelike plants.

He’s ready for the challenge. But is the zoo ready for someone from outside the close-knit zoo world?“I come from a different culture, a different company with Disney,” Baribault said. “We had a way of doing things.
His mother, Susan, who had been an animation research librarian, helped. And Baribault reached out to everyone he knew at Disney, securing an internship in 1994, “the summer of Lion King,” he quipped. He came back the following two summers. “It blew my mind. And so I would go there countless times. I felt drawn to this space in a very special way, but I couldn’t quite figure out how I would get there.”At Disney Studios, Baribault was in charge of movie promotions for Disney Animation Studios, Pixar Animation Studios and the Muppets, and Disneynature.
“Chimpanzee” was filmed in Ivory Coast, a country in West Africa. It focuses on Oscar, a young chimp, as he grows up. During the four-year process of documenting the story, his mother was killed.
