There are Many Ways to Support the Zoo

ZOO VETERINARY HOSPITAL & ANIMAL WELLNESS CAMPUS

Animal Wellness Campus West View
DONATE ONLINE NOW and be part of the Zoo’s newest improvement project with a tax-deductable contribution.

To provide optimal care for the larger number of animals we will be able to host with the addition of the new Asia - Trail of the Tiger exhibit and to maintain accreditation with the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, the Zoo needs a larger animal hospital and diet kitchen. Consistent with the Zoo's commitments to recreation and education, the new veterinary hospital and animal wellness campus will not only deliver the highest level of animal care, but will also provide an educational experience, providing information on animal medicine; the benefits of good nutrition, outdoor activity and exercise; and how our food is grown – including living fruit orchards and vegetable gardens.

Visitors will be able to look though viewing windows into treatment, surgery and laboratory rooms, and the animal diet kitchen. One of the goals of the project is to inspire children to pursue careers in the medical sciences.

The campaign needs to raise $4 million to finance the project, but roughly $3 million has already been raised.
