Brookfield Zoo

The Chicago Zoological Society’s mission is to inspire conservation leadership by connecting people to wildlife and nature.​

Since the opening of Brookfield Zoo in 1934, the Society has had an international reputation for taking a cutting-edge role in animal care and conservation of the natural world. Today, there is an increasing need for conservation leaders to guide, teach, and motivate people to protect the world’s threatened wildlife and ecosystems. In addition to conservationists, the Society inspires and engages children, students, teachers, and others among the general public to make a positive impact on the natural world around them.

In building its legacy of animal care and compassion, the Society has launched the Center for the Science of Animal Care and Welfare. This innovative learning and research hub will integrate a wide variety of disciplines, changing the way animal conservation issues are considered and advancing the science of “animal-directed” care around the world.
