Zoological Society of London

The Zoological Society of London (ZSL) is a charity devoted to the worldwide conservation of animals and their habitats.

ZSL scientists are in the laboratory and the field, animal management teams at both zoos and their veterinarians contribute wide-ranging skills and experience to both practical conservation and to the scientific research that underpins this work.

The charity is made up of five operating divisions:

ZSL is also currently planning and constructing a world class aquarium called BIOTA in London’s Docklands.
