conservation
Mill Mountain Zoo is a refuge to animals that are critically endangered, vulnerable, or otherwise non-releasable due to injury or captive birth. Not only do we protect and preserve the health and viability of these vulnerable animals in our guardianship. MMZoo is the region's leader in wildlife conservation. Additionally, we participate in research and species survival programs.

zoo News
When you come into the zoo you may notice that some of our animals are not on exhibit, this is because the zoo is home to many tropical species that cannot stay out in the recent cold temperatures.
Katie Harlow, Zoo Educator, goes on WDBJ7@4 to talk about Mill Mountain Zoo's new fox residents and all the animals going on exhibit with the warmer weather.
To celebrate our new Sloth's arrival, we will be launching a Sloth Naming Contest where the public can submit their most creative, meaningful, or just plain fun name ideas. Details at mmzoo.org/slothcontest & our social media outlets @millmountainzoo
Global wildlife campaign calls for urgent action to create and protect green spaces, reduce bird collisions, light pollution, and habitat loss.
