Mislav Ante Omazić Zagreb, rujan 2020. Zahvale: Zahvaljujem se g. Damiru Skoku, ravnatelju Ustanove Zoološki vrt grada Zagreba i g. Tomislavu Krizmaniću te ostalim djelatnicima Zoološkog vrta Zagreb na susretljivosti te uloženom trudu i vremenu. Sažetak i ključne riječi na hrvatskom jeziku Zoološki vrtovi najposjećenije su atrakcije koje godišnje zabilježe milijune posjeta diljem svijeta. Za mnoge ljude u gradskim sredinama oni su prozor u svijet divljine. Koncept društveno odgovornog poslovanja temelji se na dva gledišta o poduzećima. Jedno je gledište kako su poduzeća profitne ustanove koje široj javnosti nude dobra i usluge, a drugo gledište kako poduzeća predstavljaju važne centre moći i odlučivanja, čiji postupci imaju opipljiv utjecaj na život pojedinca i društva.
