Our Actions Matter
Although Australia's animals have adapted to a unique climate, they are threatened by habitat loss and fragmentation. You can help save Australian wildlife by making simple choices:
- Recycle and reduce the demand for natural resources like trees and precious metals. Recycling can lessen the damage to Australian landscapes caused by logging and mining.
- Support sustainable agriculture by purchasing products grown with responsible methods.
- Become a Zoo Parent to support Australian species care, animal enrichment and conservation programs at the BioPark.
