Virginia Zoo

Enhancing Excellence in Animal Care Standards

-

Hold onto your safari hats, Virginia Zoo fans, because Give Local 757 is stampeding in with roaring pride! We're on a mission to catapult our animal wellness to epic heights, and we need your helping hands to make it happen.

At the heart of our initiative is the creation of the Animal Wellness Campus, a cutting-edge facility dedicated to ensuring the health and nutrition of our beloved furry and scaly friends. With your generous support, we're aiming to turbo-charge some of our existing gear. 

Picture a L-CU300 Large Capacity Incubator, a cozy little haven for fluids! It keeps them toasty warm, ensuring our patients don't get a chilly surprise when they receive their IV or SQ treatments.  Additionally, we envision acquiring modification for our current petMAP+II to add on SP02 capability, a compact, battery-powered marvel that provides blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen stats like a medical rockstar.   And let us not overlook the Vet Pro fluid pump, it's a vet's trusty sidekick, delivering fluids like saline and meds at a steady pace.  Then, there’s the vital Jab Stick, a veterinarian's enchanted wand for administering medications safely from afar, like a wizard in a lab coat! Let's not leave out those invaluable medical and wildlife textbooks. 

These resources are vital for our veterinary staff to continue upholding the highest standards in animal care, ensuring timely check-ups and staying updated on the latest advancements in the field. Your support can truly make a meaningful impact!
