Sac Zoo: Biodiversity Hotspots

Project: Open since 1927, the Sacramento Zoo is home to over 140 native, rare and endangered species and is one of over 200 accredited institutions of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. The Zoo is wholly managed by the nonprofit Sacramento Zoological Society and inspires conservation awareness through education and recreation. Develop and design a wayfinding and storytelling system to introduce Sacramento Zoo visitors to global biodiversity hotspots through the interpretation of animals in their collection.
