Zoo New England (Stone Zoo, Zoo New England)

Zoo New England's Stone Zoo will update its conservation education graphics and interactive experiences for children and families, school groups, and other visitors at its two locations. New graphics will include messages that will foster appreciation for wildlife and encourage conservation behavior. They will update information about the conservation status of the animals to reflect current realities and implement multi-sensory experiences to engage visitors of all education levels, interests, and abilities. A consultant who specializes in behavior change theory will assist staff in considering all the drivers, motivations, barriers, and benefits to changing behavior in relation to conservation, animal welfare, and the environment.
