The special weekend ushers in the Zoos and Aquariums Committing to Conservation (ZACC) conference hosted by the zoo. To celebrate this important global network for wildlife and habitat conservation, Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn has proclaimed the week of March 7-11 to be “Woodland Park Zoo Field Conservation Week.”

Special keeper talks, discovery stations, and the zoo’s 1,000 animal ambassadors will introduce visitors to the critical field conservation projects that Woodland Park Zoo supports around the globe. Visitors will learn what they can do in their daily lives to share the planet with wild animals in their backyard and around the world.

The zoo is open 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
