Recycle

By reusing many of the products already created--such as aluminum, glass, paper, and plastic--we can reduce energy consumption.

"Recycling glass instead of making it from silica sand reduces mining waste by 70%, water use by 50%, and air pollution by 20%. Source, Environmental Defense Fund."

Brevard Zoo welcomes you to take part in its Zoo Volunteer Program. As a community Zoo, we encourage public involvement designed to aid the Zoo in all aspects of operation. As a non-profit organization, we are dependent upon and very grateful to our volunteers, who help with everything from special events to educational programs. We know that working directly with animals is not everyone's goal, so we have tailored programs that we feel will offer something for everyone.

Brevard Zoo needs your help in the following areas:

Expedition Africa
Aviary
Landscaping
Gift Shop
Administrative Support
Greeter
Contact Yard
Kayaking
Education Animal Care
Animal Handling

The areas listed above require special training and a commitment of at least 6 months of service. High school students 16 and older are also welcome to apply. For complete details on the above volunteer positions, please CLICK HERE.
