  • ZSL200 Strategy 2018
    A world where wildlife thrives CONTENTS Introduction from Director General Dominic Jermey 3 4 Getting set for the next century Our purpose and vision 5 ZSL 200: our strategy – 6 a world where wildlife thrives Wildlife and People 8 10 Wildlife Health Wildlife Back from the Brink 12 16 Implementing our strategy Our Zoos: inspiring visitors through fun and wonder 18 Science for conservation campus: 21 informing future generations of conservation scientists Conservation: empowering communities and influencing policy 22 People, values and culture: 24 fit for the future Engaging and partnering with our conservation family 26 27 How we’ll know we’ve got there? 2 ZSL 200 I came to the Zoological Society of London to make a difference. I joined an extraordinary organisation at a defining moment in its nearly 200 year history. After enabling millions of people to experience wildlife through its Zoos, after multiple scientific discoveries and conservation successes, ZSL is positioned to set out an agenda for positive impact on wildlife throughout the 21st century. This is a period of enormous strain on wildlife. ZSL’s Living Planet Index has charted the devastating decline in biodiversity across many species in the last half century. That is why a bold, ambitious strategy for the Society is right. A strategy which sets out the difference we will make to the world of wildlife over decades to come. A strategy which builds on our people, our expertise and our partnerships, all of which have helped us inspire, inform and empower so many people to stop wild animals going extinct.

    Large print text Collecting the World Please do not remove from this display Collecting the World Founded in 1753, the British Museum opened its doors to visitors in 1759. The Museum tells the story of human cultural achievement through a collection of collections. This room celebrates some of the collectors who, in different ways, have shaped the Museum over four centuries, along with individuals and organisations who continue to shape its future. The adjoining galleries also explore aspects of collecting. Room 1: Enlightenment tells the story of how, in the early Museum, objects and knowledge were gathered and classified. Room 2a: The Waddesdon Bequest, displays the collection of Renaissance and Baroque masterpieces left to the British Museum by Baron Ferdinand Rothschild MP at his death in 1898.

  • ZSL Trade Partnership Presentation.Pdf (1.28
    ZSL Trade Partnership Who are ZSL? Founded in 1836, the Zoological Society of London (ZSL) is first and foremost an international scientific, conservation and educational charity. With a mission to promote and achieve the wildlife conservation of animals and their habits, our two Zoos, ZSL London Zoo and ZSL Whipsnade Zoo play a major part in our work. From discovering Okapi in 1901 to breeding the first cheetahs in Europe in 1967 to more recently discovering the presumed extinct Horton Plains Slender Loris in Sri Lanka in 2010, we’ve been accomplishing these amazing achievements for nearly 200 years. And our work doesn’t stop here, ZSL runs conservation programmes in over 50 countries worldwide, playing an essential role to work with local communities to conserve their environment and promote sustainability. ZSL London Zoo ZSL London Zoo is the world's oldest scientific zoo inspiring many over the years, including Charles Darwin and even A.A Milne’s honey loving bear, Winnie the Pooh. Today the zoo is home to a collection of over 750 species and over 18,000 individuals, making it one of the largest collections in the United Kingdom. Whether it’s big cats, primates or reptiles that you’re looking forward to seeing, you won’t be short of friends to make. Over the years, ZSL has made continuous changes to enhance the environment for our animals but also create an even better visitor experience. The most recent change being the opening of Land of the Lions, allowing visitors to be transformed to the Asiatic Lions’ home in India’s Sasan Gir in a 2,500sqm exhibit.
