master plan

This is a list of changes I would make to the Toledo Zoo, a few of these are from the Zoos existing masterplan and a few, well most are just things I want to happen. You can agree with the changes I would make or you can disagree, but any changes you would make I am always interested to hear...

When compared to some of my previous threads, this one doesn’t have to be taken too seriously. That being said; this thread is going to explore hypothetical possibilities that a real zoo or aquarium might announce (or not) one day as part of a future master plan. Especially, if said...

Hello everyone, I couldn't find a thread discussing the following topic, so I apologize if it has been covered before. With zoos like OKC and Brookfield recently releasing their master plans, I'd like to ask everyone what they hope to see from other zoos in the future as they release their...

Aline W. Skaggs Wild Utah I first heard rumblings of a Utah themed exhibit back in 2014. The exhibit was always to be in the eastern portion of the zoo, previously only viewable to guests via the train. By 2014, the zoo had just opened African Savanna – the final project from the zoo’s 2010...

The first comprehensive master plan of Hogle Zoo which was released to the public in 1977

Ever since I discovered Houston Zoo's Master Plan, https://s28164.pcdn.co/files/Strat_Plan_Book_MF_3.20.20_Web.pdf I have been obsessed with looking at it and speculating what the zoo could look like in the future. So in anticipation for my visit to the Houston Zoo's Galapagos Islands, I thought...

Hello! I am the Animal Care Coordinator at a small, ZAA accredited zoo in Southern Nevada. Post Covid I wear many hats at the zoo but what I am working on now is designing a tentative plan for creating some new animal enclosures for species we want to bring to the zoo and re-vamping enclosures...

Hello Everyone, As much as I love all of my local zoos in New England, all of them have plenty of areas where they can improve. I'm starting this thread to detail my ideas for re-imagining New England's Zoos. I will post a plan for each zoo in New England, with the first coming out later today.

Hi everyone, the point of this thread is to talk about zoos you've been to and what you think they could do to improve. I'll go first, with my home zoo, the North Carolina Zoo. The North Carolina Zoo is one of if not the largest zoo by land area in the country, so all the animals have adequate...

Zoos have to innovate to survive, and even the world greatest zoos still have outdated enclosers. Many zoos have great ambitions allready, with new modern exhibits, and new species in planing. Which Zoo will have in the near future the greatest accomplishments, or which zoos plans are the...

I am interested at the development at the Burgers Zoo in Arhem. Did the Zoo release some kind of Masterplan to the public ? They had some major developments in the last few years, but still have a lot of unused space, and still develop for example the Burgers Bush and the old Bird House even...

My idea for the Toledo Zoo to expand the Africa exhibit.

For those of you who don't know, my local zoo happens to be the Kansas City Zoo and I visit it quite frequently. As some of you may do, I often find myself imagining exhibits in areas of the zoo that aren't being utilized. The zoo's new master plan that was released in 2011 got me excited about...

The Milwaukee County Zoo s advertising for companies to develop a new master plan http://county.milwaukee.gov/ImageLibrary/Groups/cntyArchEng/dturzai/02172012forward/ZooMasterPlan2012-2013.pdf I think many zoo chatters will find Part II (following p. 6 of Part I) interesting reading
