Collaboration

By working with other government entities and accredited animal care institutions as well as non-governmental organizations (NGOs), academic institutions, local community groups, and more, we support biodiversity here in California and around the world and participate in a far-reaching network of conservation professionals.

ANIMAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS

Like modern-day Noah’s arks, the L.A. Zoo breeds animals as a hedge against extinction in the wild and ensures that animal populations in human care are sustainable.
