Palm Beach Zoo and Conservation Society

Our mission is to inspire people to act on behalf of wildlife and the natural world. We recognize that the only way to accomplish our mission is to include ALL PEOPLE across all races, ethnicities, genders, ages, religions, mental/physical abilities, and sexual orientations. Just as we value biodiversity, we recognize and appreciate the value of human diversity as being integral to our ability to connect with our visitors and the communities we serve.

Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society's mission is to inspire people to act on behalf of wildlife and the natural world. We advance our mission through endangered species propagation, education, and support of conservation initiatives in the field. This journey of inspiring people to act on behalf of nature and the natural world began in 1969 as a small animal attraction that our community has grown into a force for wildlife. Over time, the Zoo acquired a marvelous array of more than 300 animals, many of them rare, endangered, and native to Florida, the Americas, Australia, Asia, and Africa. Palm Beach Zoo offers the best in animal care and wellness, an extraordinary visitor experience and engaging education – all to help wildlife. Today, the Zoo continues to be the second most visited cultural organization in the Palm Beaches.
