A View From the Zoo is a group designed to promote discussion and sharing about zoos: their purpose, benefits, and educational opportunities for everyone. We invite members of many varied backgrounds including zoo keepers, docents, researchers, educators, zoo administrators, and, most of all, folks of all ages who just love the zoo. It is our hope that this group will be a forum for all to share "behind the scenes" information of interest about zoos, animal facts from people in the know, and memorable experiences from many who adore zoos and the benefits they provide.
