Conservation Society of California and Oakland Zoo Financials

The Conservation Society of California and Oakland Zoo is supported by private individuals, foundations, corporations, and memberships. Public support comes from the City of Oakland and East Bay Regional Parks District, which contributed 11% of the Zoo's 2017 operating budget of $18.1 million. Annual public support allows admission prices to remain low, and therefore keeps this gem of the Bay Area accessible to all economic levels of the community.
