Grim Prospects for Wildlife

Local News

Halloween comes and goes, but nothing can really be more bloodcurdling than the very real and constant threats to biodiversity on Earth.

We are home to a number of iconic species that are included in the International Union for the Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species. One of them is the snowy owl (Bubo scandiacus), with a conservation status recently upgraded to Vulnerable due to the increasing threats of habitat transformation caused by climate change, poaching, and road accidents.

Besides the wonderful opportunity to meet some 900 individuals of 170 species, a visit to us also enables you to contribute to collaborative conservation efforts by supporting our work.
