Volunteers Needed

Austin Zoo needs your help! Everyday, there are many different things that need to get done to care for the animals and improve our community zoo experience.  We need help with landscaping, cleaning, administration, animal care, education, and more. Our volunteer positions range from individuals who help weekly or monthly to group activities that might help us once in a while on a big project. To find out more, click here. 

Immediate Zoo Needs

Due to drought conditions, we are in dire need of pet carriers (of all sizes) and bird cages in the event of a fire evacuation. Don’t have a carrier to donate? No worries. We have upcoming needs for winter that we invite you to drop on by: sheets, blankets and towels you no longer need. Or bring a red heat bulb or two. We – and the animals – will love you for it!
