Over a million California School children have experienced our unique style of education blended with live animals, relevant story telling and a fun, enlightening message. These children have grown into informed, caring adults who still call and write us about how much they enjoyed our programs and want us to teach their kids as well. They now see the natural world as an important and integral part of their life.
Conservation Ambassadors is a rescue zoo and your donations go directly to their care.
