Mission
The Houston Zoo provides a fun, unique, and inspirational experience fostering appreciation, knowledge, and care for the natural world. Essentially a small city encompassing a world of ecosystems and experiences, the Houston Zoo is made up of many moving parts. We have over 4,500 permanent residents (our animals) for whom we provide housing, meals, medical care and, yes, even education. In addition, we have 1.6 million guests each year who come to experience our incredible variety of animals and ecosystems, as well as attend special private and public events and entertainment.
