As a non-profit organization, Lehigh Valley Zoo is a treasured community landmark with a history spanning over a century. Lehigh Valley Zoo, located in the heart of the Trexler Nature Preserve, is home to more than 250 animal ambassadors representing over 128 species.

The Zoo’s animal collection is collectively managed through the Species Survival Plan Program™(SSP) which is administered by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). As a means to share important conservation messaging with Zoo guests and contribute to field conservation, the Zoo contributes to, participates in, and initiates wildlife conservation programs at home and in the field.

The Zoo’s full-circle conservation projects spotlight Spotted Turtle (local), Mexican Gray Wolf (national) and African Penguin (international). You can learn about the Zoo’s conservation efforts by visiting the Zoo’s Reptile & Amphibian Discover Center, watching a daily African Penguin feeding, and observing a real life wolf feed throughout the year. Accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA), and an institutional member of American Association of Zoo Keepers (AAZK), the Zoo hosts year-round family-friendly events and activities, educational programs, and camps.
