They have over 4,500 permanent residents, - animals, for which they provide housing, meals, medical care, and yes, even education! In addition, they have 1.5 million guests each year.
The Zoo has long held a leadership role in conservation activities on both local and international levels. Their commitment to conservation efforts is even greater now. Through exhibit renovations and new habitat designs, they hope to make a difference in how Houston Zoo guests relate to wildlife, creating a more personal experience. Innovative education programs complement animal habitats, encouraging families and school children to develop a deeply held interest in life sciences, and a life-long personal commitment to conservation that can only better our planet.
The Houston Zoo has developed a model Conservation Program for other zoos and conservation organizations to emulate, supporting fieldwork with endangered or threatened species both in our own backyard and around the globe. This effort is a priority of the board and staff. |

Art for ConservationTM Commitment Goal:
$11,940.00 US.
Houston Zoo has been indicated by AFC members as a potential recipient of donations by participating artists. AFC's Art for ConservationTM program, provides a forum to promote artwork that benefits recognized conservation organizations such as Houston Zoo.
AFC members have voluntarily and independently earmarked a portion of the proceeds from the sale of their artwork to Houston Zoo. AFC's Art for ConservationTM program provides a forum to help promote artwork for sale that includes such a commitment. Each artists's commitment is contingent on the sale of their work and the above estimate is a potential total based on the completion of sale of any original work and/or limited editions. The AFC is not involved in any way with artwork sales transactions, nor does it make any guarantees relating to artist commitments. The AFC takes no commission whatsoever from the sale of artwork under the Art for ConservationTM program, unless explicitly indicated.
