WHAT IS THE DOORNBOS ANIMAL RESCUE AND CARE CENTER?
The Doornbos Animal Rescue and Care Center is the Phoenix Zoo’s current capital fundraising project to build a new holding and quarantine facility on Zoo grounds.
Through your support, the Zoo can continue to provide a safe and supportive environment for animals rescued from dire situations, such as trafficking or neglect.
