My Kind of Zoo
A Few Words About the Campaign from our Fans
Behind every person who loves Lincoln Park Zoo, there is a story.
The stories keep evolving, because the zoo keeps changing—and
at each stage, zoo-lovers see things, learn things, and respond
to the zoo in new ways.
“Lincoln Park Zoo is a Chicago treasure, and the
envy of other cities around the world. For more than a century
Chicago families have come here to relax, enjoy themselves, and
increase their understanding and appreciation of the animal kingdom.
And it doesn’t cost them a cent. Now the zoo is becoming
even better, thanks to the generosity of the people of the City
of Chicago.”
Mayor Richard M. Daley
“There’s no place else quite like Lincoln
Park Zoo; it’s simply one of the best places in the world.
Everyone is welcome at the zoo, and people from babies to great-grandparents
enjoy themselves and learn from the animals and each other. There
is no better place to invest in the future than Lincoln Park
Zoo.”

“In just a few acres, Lincoln Park Zoo focuses incredible
resources and energies on the urgent mission of animal conservation
and provides all of us with the opportunity to grab hold of an enormous
amount of knowledge. For our children especially, the zoo can be
a wonderful teacher, helping them understand what has happened in
the animal world and what they can do to help. We must continue to
support the zoo and make it a lifelong commitment.”
