5. Indianapolis Zoo (cont.)
• Partner with a Zoo: Any zoo is
generally dependent on the
generosity of its patrons.
Conservation is the motivating force
among many zoos including the
Indianapolis Zoo. Individuals can
partner with the zoo by donating a
monetary gift.

6. Indiana Wildlife Federation
Donations: Any conservation depends on outside
donations to sustain its efforts. The Wildlife Federation
is no different. Remember, donations are tax
deductible!
