We work closely with other zoos, wildlife parks and conservation bodies try and ensure the long-term survival of our animals. Shaldon is a member of the British and European Zoo Associations (BIAZA and EAZA). These organisations are there to ensure high standards of practise within zoos, coordinate breeding programmes and aid zoos in maximising their conservation involvement. The majority of animals kept at Shaldon are part of these coordinated endangered species breeding programmes (EEPs and ESBs) as shown below.
