We all have colorful memories of time spent at Denver Zoo. Each animal encounter enriches our lives. Animals teach us something. They connect us to nature. They bring a calming effect, and often squeals of delight.
Denver Zoo provides the best balanced nutrition, engaging animal enrichment and veterinary care for our animals. Denver Zoo's amazing animals give us so much and we're asking for your help. Learn more about the efforts we take to care for our animals and help us Give Back To The Animals.

Give back to the animals for the many ways they've enriched your life and our community.
On behalf of the 3,800 magnificent animals at Denver Zoo - THANK YOU.*
With 3,800 mouths (and beaks) to feed, it takes more than $700,000 a year and a professional dedicated team of experts to ensure the best nutrition for each of our more than 600 species.

It takes more than an apple a day to keep the vet away. At Denver Zoo, veterinary care is proactive and includes all preventative check-ups to emergency medicine; our vets provide the finest state-of-the-art care to our animals.

At Denver Zoo we enhance the lives of our animals by providing them with mental and physical stimulation to promote natural and healthy behaviors. We challenge our animal's bodies and minds to keep them active and engaged.

*Giving options represent the actual costs associated with Denver Zoo's animal care, however, gifts will be utilized where most needed.
