The Frankfurt Zoological Society (FZS) is an international conservation organization founded in 1858, headquartered in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. FZS is dedicated to preserving wildlife and ecosystems, focusing on protected areas and outstanding wild places. The organization leads and supports approximately 30 projects across 18 countries, emphasizing long-term commitment and scientific approaches to conservation.
FZS’s efforts are concentrated in biodiversity-rich regions, including Central and Eastern Europe, East Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia. Their work spans various habitats such as savannas, forests, wetlands, and mountain areas. By collaborating with local communities, governments, and other stakeholders, FZS aims to maintain biodiversity and conserve wildlife in some of the planet’s last remaining wilderness areas.
In addition to its international projects, FZS maintains a strong connection to its roots through a partnership with Zoo Frankfurt. This collaboration enhances public education and awareness about global conservation issues, bridging the gap between local engagement and international wildlife preservation efforts.
