01 Making a Difference

Our mission at Blank Park Zoo is to inspire an appreciation of the natural world through conservation, education, research and recreation. Each day, our dedicated staff and committed supporters help deliver on that mission – which continues to help make a difference in the natural world and our relationship to it. I want to personally thank you all for your ongoing support of our zoo and the many positive impacts we have across the region, the country and the globe. Without your unwavering efforts and support, our non-profit organization wouldn’t be able to deliver the long list of accomplishments year in and year out. I hope you enjoy learning more about all we have going on at Blank Park Zoo, and that we see you again soon enjoying the beauty of our animals, our peaceful and inclusive setting and the joy of being around other people who love to support the natural world.

02 Our Amazing Animals

Over the past 12 months, we have welcomed many amazing animals to the world. These births could be the difference between survival and extinction for their species — and with the birth of a lion cub in Chicago, the impact extended beyond our own zoo.

Mira

Mira

A harbor seal, was born on August 7, 2021 to parents, Ross and Meru. The birth is significant for both the zoo and the entire harbor seal population.

Dakota

Dakota

A Hartmann’s Mountain zebra, was born on March 11, 2022. He’s the first foal born at Blank Park Zoo since zebra returned in 2019.

At the Blank Park Zoo, we strive to constantly achieve our vision, “volunteer engagement that inspires conservation action". Our Zoo Crew and Corporate and Group Service Days are two of the many programs and opportunities we offer.

Zoo crew

Zoo Crew

Zoo Crew is an opportunity for growth and discovery. Last year 170 teens participated in the program and provided the Zoo 5,349 hours of service in various areas around the Zoo. The goal of the Zoo Crew program is to foster personal responsibility, job skills, self-initiative and inspire conservation actions for the next generation. This unique program is exclusive to not only Des Moines, but also the state of Iowa.

Corporate and Group Service Days

This program offers corporate and civic groups the opportunity to work together as a team on a variety of projects around the Zoo. It encourages conservation and inspires team building, all while giving back to the community. Plus, it’s a great way to get the whole team together outside of the office.

04 Wild Lights Shine Bright

April 2021 launched the first annual Wild Lights Festival presented by MidAmerican Energy Company. It brought nearly 40,000 people to immerse themselves in light and culture at Blank Park Zoo. The stunning festival gives visitors a truly magical experience with over 40 illuminated lanterns and displays featuring endangered animals and Asian mythical creatures. We are excited to continue the event for a second year in April 2022 and for many years to come.

Annual Events

Stem

STEM

One of the largest programs making the biggest impact is our annual summer camp program, spanning three decades of teaching kids about nature and conservation. In the last several years, our team made a deliberate decision to put a bigger emphasis on teaching high-quality science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) lessons each day as a part of the camper’s activities.

All our camp counselors received training in the Dimensions of Success from the PEAR Institute, a program developed by a Harvard University professor to define key aspects of quality STEM learning experiences.

Lion

The commitment to education at Blank Park Zoo influences so many aspects of learning. Not only do we have a diverse mix of youth-focused educational programs like Zoo Tunes, Summer Safari and Ruby’s Readers Book Club, but we also have multiple programs for teachers and the community. Those dimensions include in-person and virtual programs for libraries, daycares, preschools, senior centers, community groups and more.

06 Endangered Species and Conservation

To protect the future of wildlife everywhere, we continue to strengthen and secure the future of endangered species at our zoo. That’s where the Blank Park Zoo Endowment and Preservation Partners have made a massive difference. Together, these individuals have stepped up to stop the extinction of endangered species around the world — with an effort that starts right here at home.

The race to save wildlife is on.

Blank Park Zoo is home to two dozen endangered and critically endangered species. Through cooperative breeding programs, we are quite literally preventing these species from going extinct.

  • Near Threatened (NT): 25 species
  • Vulnerable (VU): 29 species
  • Endangered (EN): 24 species
  • Critically Endangered (CR): 11 species

How many are left in the wild?

  • Eastern Black Rhino – 583
  • Addax – 30-90
  • Panamanian Golden Frog – 0-49
  • Sarus Crane – 13,000-15,000
  • Grey Crowned Crane – 17,700-23,300
  • Amur Tiger – 500-550
  • Reticulated Giraffe – 16,000
