Work Grounded in Purpose
When you support Lincoln Park Zoo, you become our partner in progress, from bringing species back from the brink of extinction to data-driven care that keeps animals thriving to learning programs that inspire the next generation of scientists.
Care
Animal care comes first. It’s why we prioritize individual well-being over everything. With the help of our scientific research, staff and volunteers work to provide the best animal care and welfare outcomes for each animal.
Conservation
The first step in protecting wildlife populations is learning how; the next step is doing something about it. With one of the largest zoo-based conservation and science programs in the country, we lead and support research projects locally and globally.
Community
We all share one global wildlife community. Through engagement and education, we connect people with nature across the greater Chicagoland area. Our commitment to community here contributes to defending wildlife everywhere.
