Zoo Check

Born Free USA works tirelessly to fight wild animal captivity but, because our resources are limited and there are so many hundreds of facilities that keep animals, we need you to help us monitor conditions in wild animal facilities.

With our Zoo Check program, members of the public can help us track abuses and substandard conditions suffered by animals in zoos, aquaria, circuses, or other places that exhibit animals.

How Can I Participate?

By Mail

Print out this PDF form and take it with you when you go to the zoo, aquarium, circus, or other place that exhibits animals. Be as detailed as you can, take photos or video if possible, and send your handwritten form and documentation to us via regular mail.

Online

Take a pen and paper or print out the PDF form, take notes about what you observe at the wild animal exhibiting place and, when you return home, use the notes you recorded to fill in this online form.
