2024 Draft Campus Plan

Entrance sign reading Oregon oo

Collaborating with a professional planning team from CLR Design, the zoo set priorities through a nearly yearlong engagement process involving zoo guests, staff members, community groups, experts in animal care and conservation, and other stakeholders. The Metro Council provided additional input and guidance.

All of that work is reflected in this 2024 campus plan, which will help shape the next era of animal care, guest accessibility and resource conservation at the zoo. Focusing on areas not improved through the 2008 bond, the plan proposes updating some of the zoo’s oldest animal areas, improving accessibility and amenities for guests of all ages and abilities, and ensuring the zoo does its part to both mitigate and respond to a changing climate.

The Oregon Zoo’s mission is connecting our community to the wonder of wildlife to create a better future for all. This plan envisions the physical manifestation of that mission: a space for the zoo to create connections, spark interests and foster relationships that will benefit not just this region but the world — a campus that will bring us together for wildlife.
