A look at the new animals welcomed at the Jacksonville Zoo in 2022 - Jacksonville Business Journal

The Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens welcomed more than a dozen new animals this year, including critically endangered species such as a baby lemur.

Not only were new babies born, but the zoo continued its conservation efforts by rescuing and rehabilitating animals as well, such as Alita, a bald eagle who now lives in the Wild Florida exhibit at the zoo, after being rescued as an eaglet missing part of her wing. Conservation efforts don’t stop with animals. The Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens also works to preserve species alongside their habitats in the wild. Critically endangered animals like lemurs are born in the zoo and taken care of, but the zoo also partners with other organizations and communities to preserve their habitats in the wild.

Conservation is such a large part in the zoo’s mission that part of every ticket and membership sold goes to animal and plant protection. Over the last six years, the zoo has put $1.75 million toward conservation.
