Zoo Negara - The Four Pillars We Stand On

Education
We believe that education is the only key in creating awareness on wildlife conservation. Zoo Negara is an open classroom for young minds to learn and nurture their interest and care on wildlife. Check out our Education Package for schools and even for you! 
 
Conservation
What will the world be without wildlife? Conserving Malaysian Wildlife is one of our main missions. Animals such as the False Gharial and the Milky Storks are highly endangered wildlife that is not so well known compared to the Malayan Tiger or the Bornean Orang Utan. Zoo Negara has managed to breed these two species and we are currently working with the local Wildlife Department in releasing them back into the wild! 
 
Research
Zoo Negara has an active link with local universities. Students from the Zoology, Biology and Veterinary field may do their research on animals at the zoo. We also receive foreign students who are interested in learning more about our local species.
 
Recreation
Entertainment is part of the Malaysian culture and the zoo is an attraction spot where you can watch shows portraying animals in their natural behavior. We believe that animal shows must be educational so that visitors will be able to learn and have fun at the same time. Our shows are not circus acts!
 
Training
Zoo Negara will strive to provide the very best in assisting other zoos in Malaysia through its vast strong knowledge and experience in the field of wildlife management. Further, we are actively involved in national and international zoological community thereby contributing to Malaysia's overall national role.
