At the Wildlife Conservation Society, we harness the power of our zoos and aquarium in New York City and our field conservation work around the globe to save wildlife and wild places. Our model: connecting millions of visitors at our urban wildlife parks with the largest and longest-standing field conservation program.
In New York, we run the leading zoo in the US, the Bronx Zoo, as well as the Central Park Zoo, Queens Zoo, Prospect Park Zoo, and the New York Aquarium. We also employ the largest field-based conservation program, operating in more than 50 countries. These two activities are deeply connected and mutually supportive.
At World Animal Protection, we are a global organisation dedicated to ending the exploitation of animals. For over 75 years, we have been at the forefront of animal welfare, exposing cruel systems, promoting animal-friendly alternatives, and influencing policy change. We aim to create a world where animals live free from cruelty and suffering.
Our Approach
Animal-Centric Focus: Animals are sentient beings capable of feeling pain, fear, and joy. This belief drives all our actions and initiatives.
Global Advocacy: We work tirelessly to move animal welfare up the global agenda, ensuring that the rights of animals are recognised and respected worldwide.
Systemic Change: By addressing the root causes of animal suffering, we aim to transform the broken systems that lead to exploitation, benefiting animals, people, and our shared planet.
