Welcome to the ZSL Media Centre

Media Centre

We are an international conservation charity working to create a world where wildlife thrives.

From investigating the health threats facing animals to helping people and wildlife live alongside each other, ZSL is committed to bringing wildlife back from the brink of extinction. Our work is realised through our ground-breaking science, our field conservation around the world and engaging millions of people through our two zoos, London Zoo and Whipsnade Zoo. 

The press office is here to help with any media enquiries relating to ZSL, from facilitating filming and photography to putting you in touch with one of our world-leading conservationists, science experts, zookeepers or vets for interviews or comment.

We are always happy to discuss all ideas and make recommendations, so please direct any media queries to a member of the press team.

Office hours

ZSL Press Office opening hours: Monday to Friday, 9.00am to 5.00pm.

Want to film your next production at one of our Zoos?

ZSL’s iconic Zoos and historic venues have made perfect backdrops for many films, photography shoots and television programmes. Commercial film shoots incur a location fee, and if you are looking to use any of ZSL’s venues or locations, seeking to reproduce a ZSL-owned image or conduct research for a project that is not about the work of ZSL, please email CommercialFilming@zsl.org.
