Conservation Zoos play a critical role in engaging communities and providing unique opportunities for people to connect with wildlife, saving threatened species through dedicated international conservation actions and breeding programmes. Bristol Zoo is involved in seven projects globally doing inspiring work.
The range and scale of projects is incredible with the White Clawed Crayfish in the UK, Western Lowland Gorillas in Equatorial Guinea, the Sanje Mangabey in Tanzania, the Negros Bleeding Heart and the Dove Warty pig in Philippines, Blue-eyed Black Lemurs in Madagascar, the Kordofan Giraffe in Cameroon and the Lemur Leaf Frog in Costa Rica. The play development was designed to playfully encourage visitors to immerse themselves in the depth of this work, inspiring all of us to play our part and become conservationists.
