Conservation and Animal Care

The Conservation and Animal Care team at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum is responsible for the welfare and management of living collections, including animals, plants, and ecosystems within the museum. They conduct research, implement conservation initiatives, and educate the public about urban ecology and sustainability. The team ensures the health and well-being of the museum’s diverse flora and fauna through habitat maintenance, special care, and collaborative conservation projects that enhance the museum’s mission of fostering a positive relationship between people and nature.
