About Us

The Wildlife Planet Trust is a registered education, scientific and conservation charity established in 1957 and based in Devon, UK.

Wildlife Planet Trust owns three zoos, two local nature reserves and a National Nature Reserve. We are also active at home and abroad working directly and with partner organisations to conserve species and their habitats.

Each year, the Wildlife Planet Trust awards a number of grants to individuals undertaking nature conservation projects. Projects may involve practical habitat or species management, research, training, education, awareness raising or campaigning.
