Today ZSL turns 200! We're celebrating our incredible, rich history – two brilliant centuries of learning, science, conservation and sharing the wonder of wildlife with millions. Here's to the next 200 years. And today we're taking the next step - announcing plans for a brand-new £20m wildlife health centre, the first in the UK to give people a window onto live vet procedures. zsl.org/news-and-event… #ZSLat200

At the Institute of Zoology, we are proud to be a part of @OfficialZSL protecting wildlife and restoring ecosystems. Happy 200th birthday ZSL! #HappyBirthdayZSL #ZSLAt200 #CreatingChange

Join us on 19th May for our next #WildTalks chaired by Chris van Tulleken as our experts discuss connections between human, animal & ecosystem health, and how understanding these connections can safeguard the future of the planet. Book now 👇 #OneHealth zsl.org/news-and-event…

#HappeningNow: A regional training on the use of the @IUCNRedList for biodiversity monitoring and reporting in the #WesternBalkans 🙌 Coinciding with #EarthDay, the training brings together institutions, experts and CSO representatives nominated by the @BDTF_WB to strengthen knowledge, align methodologies, and support better species conservation data and reporting across the region. Because good conservation starts with good knowledge and shared tools 🦇 Supported by #InternationalPartnershipAustria 🤝 @ZSLScience #GreenAgendaWB #EUGreenDeal #RegionalCooperation

For 200 years, we’ve been building the future of wildlife health 🌍🩺 From hands-on care to cutting-edge science, every step has helped shape how we protect animals - in our zoos and in the wild. We invited @guardian photojournalist David Levene to join our vets for a year to capture everything that happened ahead of our 200th anniversary this month. An epic 50,000 photos later, here’s everything from sleeping lions to spitting snakes: #img-26" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theguardian.com/world/ng-inter…

Happy #NationalMammalWeek! Join our #webinar today. Katy Bell @RedSquirrelsUW looks at #redsquirrel & #pinemarten #conservation & conflict issues in #NorthernIreland. Beth Smith @ZSLScience looks at the new England red squirrel recovery strategy. Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

England's #redsquirrels could vanish from the mainland within 25 years without action — but recovery is possible. @NaturalEngland has published a new Red Squirrel Recovery Strategy, developed with @ZSLScience & 60+ stakeholders, to map out a future for this iconic species🐿️⬇️

We believe nature can recover, and through coordinated, evidence-based action, red squirrel recovery in England is possible. Read the report to find out how 👉 publications.naturalengland.org.uk/publication/60… @OfficialZSL @NEChiefSci

Using a structured decision-making approach, scientists from ZSL’s Institute of Zoology worked with > 60 collaborators, stakeholders and partners, to evaluate alternative strategies to recover red squirrel populations at regional and national scales

25 years to act before red squirrels disappear from English woodlands 🐿️ A landmark report led by ZSL on behalf of @NaturalEngland outlines threats, and possible recovery strategies for this iconic species facing extinction
