Conservation starts here
We're a hub of action for global conservation, working in collaboration with partners across the globe to protect endangered species and habitats. From pioneering research and conservation breeding, to restoring ecosystems and empowering communities, our projects are making a real and lasting difference for wildlife in the UK and around the world.
Conservation video series
From success stories and behind-the-scenes secrets, to species recovery journeys and field conservation updates, browse our conservation video series to discover projects making a real difference.
You can also watch our Caught on Camera series to take a sneak peek at animals spotted by camera traps across the world, set up by the zoo and our conservation partners.
Conservation in action
From restoring habitats to protecting endangered species, conservation work is creating positive change for nature. Hear directly from experts at and working alongside Chester Zoo as they share the challenges and successes behind projects helping wildlife thrive.
Life in a hotter world
Climate change is bringing hotter, drier conditions to ecosystems across the globe. As droughts intensify and wildfires become more frequent, wildlife and plants face growing threats. We’re working to strengthen habitats and conserve species that are most at risk.
Conservation in a warming world
With temperatures rising, habitats around the world are changing. Melting glaciers, shrinking water sources, and shifting ecosystems are putting increasing pressure on wildlife and the communities that depend on these environments.
Our conservation work is helping wildlife and people respond to the challenges of a warming world.
Coasts under pressure
As our climate changes, rising sea levels and warming oceans are transforming coastlines around the world. These fragile habitats support unique wildlife and plant species, but increasing pressure from climate change is threatening their future.
Together with conservation partners, we’re restoring habitats and supporting species to adapt to a changing world.
Living with changing weather
As flooding, heavier rainfall and severe storms become more frequent, wildlife is facing new challenges. Damaged habitats, disrupted breeding and changing landscapes are putting increasing pressure on species already at risk.
We’re working with conservation partners around the world to protect habitats and help create a more resilient future for people and nature.
Protecting wildlife in a changing climate
As habitats shrink and extreme weather increases, wildlife is facing more and more threats. Species all over the globe are forced into human populated areas, causing devastating impacts on both people and wildlife, and species with vital ecological value are diminishing.
We're on the frontline working alongside communities to bring species back from the brink, and help create a better future for both people and wildlife.
