Chester Zoo, the UK’s most popular zoo and one of the best on the planet, is also a highly respected center for global conservation and research that passionately campaigns for wildlife. Wildlife conservation is at the heart of everything we do and, as a leading conservation charity, we are helping to prevent extinction in more than 30 countries around the world. We aim for our conservation research to help in decision-making that improves the management of animals and plants in our care, influence the sustainability of wild populations, and inspire others to join us in our challenge to protect the living world.
