Campaign Updates
We did it! We've now raised enough to open Phase One of the Bamboo Forest Reserve! Thank you all so much for getting us here, YOU got us to this first critical milestone. Every dollar raised from now on will help build the second and final half of the project.
Construction on this first phase, which includes the home of the new Asian small-clawed otters, is almost complete, with an opening set for May 2013. Every dollar raised from now on will help build the second and final phase of the new home for our tigers and sloth bears.

About the Campaign
Are you tired of our worn-out, 60-year-old tiger and sloth bear exhibits? So are we! That's why we're embarking on the biggest extreme makeover here at the zoo since the 1990s.
If you love animals, you'll love the new experience we're designing. The new exhibit will also play a crucial role in inspiring people to help save wild tigers – whose future is in serious jeopardy.
But we can't build it without you. Here's how you can help:
• Give $100 and get your name recognized on our website, or...
• Give $250 or more and get your name inscribed on the exhibit's donor wall! Even better...
• Give $1,000 or more (just $100 a month for 10 months) and you'll get your name prominently featured on a paw print in the new exhibit!
Gifts of all sizes matter and every gift counts, so whether it’s $10 or $10,000, please join your friends and neighbors who’ve already given. Together we'll build an incredible, innovative new exhibit complex and help save endangered tigers in the wild.
The Need
A world without tigers? Not if we can help it!
On an average day, there are more visitors at Woodland Park Zoo than there are tigers left in the wild. We know how to save the last remaining wild tigers, we just need people willing to help.
Don't take pity. Take action.
Woodland Park Zoo plays a critical role by inspiring people to take conservation action. We’re also partnering with Panthera to save wild tigers in Malaysia, bringing together the world’s leading wild cat experts and proven conservation strategies to save and protect wild tigers
The Exhibit
The new tropical forest experience will house exhibits for several Asian species including Malayan tigers, sloth bears, small-clawed otters and other iconic tropical forest animals. It will immerse guests in the wonders of a natural forest teeming with life and will feature up-close animal encounters, a hands-on conservation action center, children’s play area and one-on-one encounters with zookeepers.
Much more than an exhibit, this living classroom will give each visitor the inspiration and tools needed to take conservation action now to help preserve wild tigers and other endangered animals.
