CAZA members are dedicated to the highest standards of animal care. They nurture, protect and care for more than 100,000 animals representing over 2000 species. Often these animals are the last representatives of endangered species. Many of these endangered species survive because of zoo and aquarium captive animal management programs.CAZA standards deal with every aspect of the zoo and aquarium that affects the wellbeing of the animals- nutrition, enclosures, security, exercise and enrichment, veterinary care, contact with visitors- everything that impacts on the animal. These standards are under continual review as knowledge develops and evolves, and CAZA members are committed to seeking out and implementing the latest developments that are of benefit to both animals and visitors.
