Auckland Zoo is a zoological park in Auckland, New Zealand, occupying 17 hectares of parkland just minutes from the city’s center. It hosts the largest collection of native and exotic animals in the country and has been open since 1922, welcoming more than 28 million visitors over its history. The institution has earned national and international recognition for conservation work, wildlife research, and innovative exhibits, contributing to its reputation as one of the world’s more progressive zoos. Its audience includes the general public, families, and school groups seeking education and recreation, as well as researchers and conservation-minded observers. The zoo has launched applications to help consumers avoid palm oil products and to combat tropical deforestation, reflecting its public-awareness initiatives beyond exhibit spaces. It also pursues partnerships and hosts industry events, including collaborations with organizations such as Cordis and Magnetic Pictures, and it is scheduled to host the ZAA Conference in 2026.
