Please join us this weekend, in celebrating the religious festival of Sukkotin the most unique Sukkah in the city! https://ow.ly/ZPtX50PTNpz

Our first Sukkah in our near 200-year history took place last year at the heart of London Zoo. A joint project between the Zoo and South Hampstead Synagogue, it was decorated by children from the local shul.

In recent years, we have marked Christmas, Easter, Pride, and Diwali.

We are excited to explore other inclusive activities to mark the cultural moments important to others in the local community, and ensure that London Zoo is a place where people from all backgrounds and communities can get closer to wildlife.

Meet our big new arrival 🦒

Wilfred the 12-foot-tall giraffe has been chauffeured to the Zoo via “giraffemobile” for a taste of city life, before he makes an onward journey to a new home in France.

22-month-old reticulated giraffe Wilfred travelled from Whipsnade Zoo in a specialist vehicle, driven by animal transport experts. The lorry’s retractable roof allowed long-necked Wilfred a comfortable experience boarding, before embarking on a 45-minute drive from our sister zoo.

Find out how we're helping Wilfred settle in 👉 https://www.londonzoo.org/zoo-stories/news/12ft-giraffe-transported-giraffemobile-stay-london-zoo

The extinct thylacine at London Zoo in the 1920s.

Official protection of the species by the Tasmanian government was introduced on 10 July 1936, 59 days before the last known animal died at Hobart Zoo in Australia.

Attempts to recover the species in zoos one hundred years ago were unsuccessful, but today conservation zoos have huge potential to restore species.

At least 72 species have been saved from extinction through care at zoos, aquariums, botanical gardens and seed banks. Collaborative breeding programmes have been able to restore species like the scimitar-horned oryx, European bison and Przewalski’s horse back into the wild.

Join us at Boo at the Zoo this Halloween to visit our extinct species graveyard, and learn more about how we can prevent extinctions from happening in the future.

Stop scrolling for a sec - these guys need your attention. 👇

We have thousands of animals for you to enjoy on every visit.

But without our heroic troop of dedicated Zookeepers looking after them, we wouldn't be here.

So please join us in thanking these dedicated and hard-working animal experts for the care they give to hundreds of species every single day of the year, this . Come sun, rain, mud, p**p or woodchip - you name it, they're all up in it.

Absolute superstars, each and every one of them 💚

An extremely special day at the Zoo 🙌 🐌

For the first time in 40 years, our conservationists have found born-in-the-wild adult Partula tohiveana – meaning they have now successfully established themselves in French Polynesia.

This moment is a culmination of decades of dedication and collaboration, beginning with saving the last individuals from extinction to coordinating a global conservation zoo breeding project.

A huge thank you to all the conservation zoos that have with us on this journey 🙌 Whipsnade Zoo Marwell Wildlife Detroit Zoo Bristol Zoo Project Edinburgh Zoo Saint Louis Zoo Sedgwick County Zoo Woodland Park Zoo Zoo Schwerin

This is what the world's most threatened bird species looks like.

This reddish-brown bird is the Socorro dove, a species that has not been seen on its native home, Socorro Island, since the 1970s. Their tiny worldwide population of just 190 birds is now only in the care of experts at zoos across Europe, Asia and America, including at London zoo's Blackburn Pavillion. As such, they're officially classified as extinct in the wild.

But we, along with our partners - IUCN, Re:wild and Botanic Gardens Conservation International - at the Extinct in the Wild alliance, are working to change that. By applying specialist scientific expertise and care, we're working to help species like the Socorro dove thrive once again.

Our work involves a huge, united effort, but we hope to see the descendants of London Zoo’s Socorro doves back on the island of Socorro someday.

Find out how you can help us to make that a reality: zsl.org/extinctinthewild
