Understanding wild animals better is crucial for a sustainable future
Research conducted in zoos can contribute to important knowledge about animal species that is difficult to obtain solely through studies in the wild, because in zoos we can get closer to the animals in a different way than in the wild. The results of this research not only provide a broader understanding of the subject, but also provide valuable information to the zoo community on how to care for our animals to provide them with the best welfare possible.
As a member of the zoo organizations EAZA and SDF, which support various research projects to varying degrees, we always try to accommodate requests for materials and data etc. for research, provided that it is compatible with good animal welfare. Research intended for publication in scientific journals is prioritized.

Conservation
The increased threat to both animals and their natural habitats makes the work of zoos more important than ever.
