The Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute is a part of the Smithsonian Institution that focuses on species conservation, ecological research, and training future conservation professionals. Its work spans field stations in more than 30 countries and two campuses—one in Washington, DC, and a dedicated Conservation Biology Institute campus in Front Royal, Virginia—where scientists study wildlife health, reproduction, and habitat management to inform both captive and wild populations. Serving a broad audience, the organization hosts more than 2,100 animals across nearly 400 species on its public zoo grounds, which attract millions of visitors annually, and it advances knowledge through international partnerships and field research. Based in Washington, DC, the institution was founded in 1889 and operates as part of the world’s largest museum and research complex, contributing to conservation, education, and evidence-based wildlife management.
