We hope you had a chance to watch the 2nd series of 'The Zoo' and got to see our passionate staff and volunteers working tirelessly, looking after the animals in our care.  We use the income from our zoos to help fund our conservation programmes, but the zoos receive no central or local government funding towards their running costs. Threats to animals and their habitats are ever increasing. We need your help for our conservation work, and to inspire people to take action.
