Mission statement

The mission of Chester Zoo is “Preventing extinction”, with the clarifying statement “As more species decline towards extinction due to human activities, we are tackling the threats head on."

We are leading best practice in science, education and husbandry to create a sustainable future for wildlife. We do this by managing animal and plant populations, safeguarding habitats and empowering people to value nature and build conservation into their daily lives.

We focus on Indonesia and Philippines, as well as Malaysian Borneo. We may have some smaller projects on SE Asia mainland, such as Malaysia or Vietnam, but these must have a good justification to be included.

For ex situ species, we breed them as part of the regional European ex situ Programme. For the other species we have projects with country partners, either co-leading projects, supporting projects in some aspects (e.g. capacity building) or only provide funding.
