Why is the California Trail exhibit important?
The Oakland Zoo has a unique opportunity to break new ground in conservation and education by creating an exhibit dedicated to the living, natural heritage of the state of California. The California Trail will redefine the Oakland Zoo as a wildlife park with statewide significance, while boosting the Zoo’s capacity to reach audiences with new and enhanced education and conservation programming. The project will firmly establish the Zoo’s role as a leader in conservation education and stewardship of the natural world, while broadening its collaborative relationships with scientists, and others in the environmental and conservation-based community working to preserve, protect, and promote our state’s natural history.
