While we do not maintain a zoo, TNC does house a small collection of animals that cannot be released into the wild. These animals help to educate visitors about the needs of our local wildlife and the importance of protecting their habitats. TNC’s animal ambassadors are native or related to local species found throughout New Jersey. Many of the species are endangered, threatened, or considered a species of special concern. Learn more about our non-releasable animals by visiting our Animal Ambassadors page.
