The Central Coast Zoo is home to a vast collection of incredible animal species from around the world. Our amazing animals are ambassador animals for their wild cousins that are facing threats in their natural habitats.
We share this planet with over 8.5 million different species of animal, and we need to do our little bit to help conserve what we have left. Our wildlife ambassadors fulfil their role by simply living the best life they can, in a positive welfare state, free from stress at the Central Coast Zoo.
Our main goal is to educate our visitors on the importance of resource sustainability, wildlife conservation and habitat preservation in their own backyard and how we can relate that to overseas conservation efforts. We will also promote and support various active international conservation programs supporting wild animals in the wild.
Education Conservation Connection
We are not like a traditional zoo where members of the public can pay entry at the gate and wonder through the facility, we take a different approach where we match your group of people with a designated staff member to create a personalized and intimate experience where you can get up close with our incredible inhabitants, so you really get to know them.
Our animals have the choice to interact with guests which inspires guests to make a real difference in their ability to actively contribute to helping wildlife and the environment. We do not force the animal to participate in these interactions and our animals choice will dictate how all our animal interactions play out. We do this consciously to ensure that our animals live in a positive welfare state and are not coerced in anyway.
It takes a lot of work and dedication from our incredible team of people to provide our animals with this life of luxury at the Central Coast Zoo. Our experienced team of animal care staff spend countless hours catering to our animal’s mental welfare through providing appropriate nutritional, behavioral, environmental and veterinary needs specialized for the individual requirements of every animal in our facility.
There is a way you can help us to continue to provide this ongoing support to our animal collection through our sponsorship programs. We have several different levels of individual sponsorship as well as various corporate sponsorship programs which are detailed below. Every sponsorship initiative directly helps our animals at the Central Coast Zoo, the financial component goes towards their day-to-day general care, specialized veterinary care, exhibit modification or improvements and enrichment devices. A portion of the sponsorship funds is also used to support conservation projects in the wild. As a sponsor of Central Coast Zoo, you receive benefits and recognition of your support. Thank you for your willingness to support the Central Coast Zoo and our Animal Ambassadors.
