POINTS OF PRIDE

Founded in 1889, Zoo Atlanta is the oldest cultural destination in Atlanta and is one of the 10 oldest zoos still in continuous operation in the U.S.

Zoo Atlanta is one of only three zoos in the U.S. housing giant pandas. Seven cubs have been born at the Zoo: Mei Lan (2006); Xi Lan (2008); Po (2010); twins Mei Lun and Mei Huan (2013); and twins Ya Lun and Xi Lun (2016). Mei Lan, Xi Lan, Po, Mei Lun and Mei Huan now reside in Chengdu, China.

Zoo Atlanta was recognized in the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ (AZA) International Conservation Award for its longtime partner in gorilla conservation, The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International, in 2017.

Zoo Atlanta received the Quarter Century Award from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) in 2016. The award recognizes zoos and aquariums which have maintained the rigorous accreditation standards of AZA for 25 years or more.

Scaly Slimy Spectacular: The Amphibian and Reptile Experience, opened in 2015, is the world’s first LEED Gold-certified reptile and amphibian complex. In its opening year, the complex also won “Top Project in Commercial Construction under $30 Million” from the Construction Management Association of America. Other honors included the Best Project Award in the Cultural/Worship category from ENR Southeast.

Zoo Atlanta is home to one of the nation’s largest zoological population of great apes. Headquartered at Zoo Atlanta, the Great Ape Heart Project is the world’s first collaborative effort to understand, diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease in great apes. In 2015, the project earned its second National Leadership Grant from the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).

Zoo Atlanta’s herpetology collection is one of the foremost in the U.S. and includes hundreds of animals. The Zoo is home to one of the world’s only zoological populations of Guatemalan beaded lizards, a rare species believed to number fewer than 200 in the wild, and has been successful in reproducing these lizards.

Zoo Atlanta President and CEO Raymond B. King was voted “Atlanta’s Most Admired Nonprofit CEO” by the Atlanta Business Chronicle for three consecutive years (2016, 2015 and 2014).

Zoo Atlanta has been recognized among its peers for a commitment to field conservation programs. In recent years, Zoo Atlanta has numbered among only a small fraction of AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums to meet or exceed AZA’s goal to encourage member organizations to contribute 3 percent or more of their annual operating budgets to field conservation programs.
