The greater Phoenix area is one of the nation’s and world’s great emerging 21st Century cities, and our community deserves a zoo that proudly represents the stature - “World Class Zoo for a World Class City”.

To achieve this goal, the Phoenix Zoo, for the first time in its 50 year history, is embarking on a full-scale Capital Campaign. The Zoo Board and staff have developed a Comprehensive Master Plan and capital funding strategy designed to implement a majority of the Master Plan by the end of 2013. The Plan will provide:

• Spectacular new and improved animal exhibits.

• A more compact footprint of the core animal collection that provides guests a more convenient, intense and interactive animal experience.

• Increased opportunities for fun and engaging educational activities that put children in touch with nature.

• A modern and adequately sized infrastructure to support the Zoo as it grows with the community over the next 50 years.

• State of the art amenities for guests.

The Zoo is determined to achieve this World Class status and continue to serve as a vital link to nature in our increasingly urban, technology-driven society. We will create a Zoo that exceeds the expectations of our current and future guests for an exciting, engaging animal and nature-based experience.
