We’re doing our part and so can you!
The Sacramento Zoo is deeply committed to local and global wildlife conservation efforts. Did you know that every time you visit the Sac Zoo or purchase a membership, you, too, are contributing to conservation efforts around the globe? Together, we can make a difference.
Why is conservation important?
We are facing unprecedented biodiversity loss, which leads to species extinction. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature, at least 10,000 species go extinct every year. Proactive conservation is vital in combating these statistics. If we work together, we can build a sustainable, healthy tomorrow. We can be the positive change.

Donate Browse for Animals
Every day the Sacramento Zoo feeds pounds of browse (non-toxic branches and leaves from specific species of trees and shrubs). You can help! When you trim your trees, check if they can be donated to feed the animals.
