OKC Zoo Conservation Fund

From bats in Woods County to birds in Pittsburg, Latimer and Beaver counties, the OKC Zoo pitched in more than 900 hours of survey time in 2018 and 2019. “The Oklahoma City Zoo is proud to have collaborated with the Wildlife Department to protect our spectacular native wildlife since 2008,” said Rebecca Snyder, curator of conservation and science for the OKC Zoo. “This partnership enables Zoo employees to work alongside ODWC biologists conducting biodiversity surveys in Oklahoma, which are used to inform management plans. These hands-on conservation opportunities that take place across our beautiful state are highly valued by Zoo staff and help us communicate the importance of native species and habitat preservation to the Zoo’s guests."
