Denver Zoo is every bit as dynamic as the communities we have served for 125 years. And the wondrous work of caring for 3,000 wild animals—while enchanting, educating and inspiring more than two million guests per year—is a complex and layered undertaking.
Our 84-acre campus is home to nearly 100 historic structures, some dating back more than a century, and is blessed with some of the most beautiful mature trees in the state. Our storied past and heritage facilities/geology must be carefully considered as we envision our future as a modern zoo-based conservation organization.
