Bristol Zoological Society is a conservation and education charity that works around the world. Our mission is “Saving Wildlife Together”.
We save wildlife together through conservation science research, working to protect species and habitats overseas, encouraging sustainable behaviours and perceptions, educating tomorrow’s wildlife warriors and connecting people with nature through a great day out.
Our conservation science efforts are worldwide, from helping to re-introduce white-clawed crayfish into UK rivers to working with communities in the Philippines to save the Critically Endangered Negros bleeding-heart dove.

Our commitment to wildlife is centuries old. It comes from a desire to better understand life on our planet and inspire people to engage with nature. We have one mission - Saving Wildlife Together.
Our volunteers and staff are guided by a commons set of values, which shape how we behave.
If you want to know what it’s like to work, partner with or support Bristol Zoological Society, our values tell you everything you need to know.
We love our zoo and conservation, and care deeply for animals, people and the planet.
We engage our visitors, partners and colleagues, and ask how we can help.
We are brave and pioneering, and strive to show what a modern zoological society can be.
We work in nine countries, across four continents, to conserve species and protect habitats in the wild as well as contributing to welfare research at Bristol Zoo Project.
Working with Bristol Zoological Society provides a unique opportunity to support our conservation and education charity in its mission of Saving Wildlife Together.
