The Auckland Zoo Conservation Fund Small Grants Programme exists to help provide relatively small levels of funding for ongoing projects or pilot programmes with clear conservation value.
The next round of the small grants programme will focus on projects conserving the world’s most threatened species – those that are believed to number 100 individuals or fewer.
