Recent Efforts

2025 Sustainability Engagement Survey

The Sustainability Engagement Survey was completed by 113 staff in 2025. The survey demonstrates an increase in sustainability engagement at the Zoo since 2019, with the overall score increasing by four points. Knowledge about how to be sustainable at the Zoo, what the Zoo is doing to be sustainable, and familiarity with sustainability concepts all have increased over the past four years. All scores and sub-scores are out of 100.

Upcoming Efforts

Conservation & Sustainability 

Conservation and sustainability folks at the zoo are strategically partnering to engage staff and guests. They will work together to update existing communications, research engagement strategies, and educate the zoo community.
