The Long Island Zoological Society is a publicly supported charitable foundation, operating since 1981. We provide are and shelter for unwanted animals. Our park is open to the public as The Animal Farm Petting Zoo. Through our Zoo Rescue Program we take in abused, abandoned, and unwanted animals. We give these beautiful creatures a home where they will be lovingly taken of. We adopt out animals that are well and will make suitable pets. Some of the animals brought in through our rescue program include rabbits, bunnies, parrots, goats, sheep, chickens chicks, ducks ducklings, iguanas, ponies, horses, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, ferrets, snakes, raccoons, bob cats, pigs, monkeys.

Wildlife Wellbeing · Wildlife Health
From its earliest days, the Wildlife Conservation Society has been a leader in animal wellbeing. The flagship Bronx Zoo established its first veterinary department in 1901. At the time, the department consisted only of a pathologist and a veterinarian. Today, the Wildlife Health Sciences division includes departments of clinical care, pathology, nutrition, and field veterinary programs. The Wildlife Health Center, located on Bronx Zoo grounds, serves more than 15,000 animals from all five WCS facilities in New York.

Animal Enrichment
To satisfy a carnivore’s curiosity and a pachyderm’s prowess, the Wildlife Conservation Society has developed an enrichment program that exercises animal minds and muscles. Keepers at the New York Zoos and Aquarium work with their charges to strengthen bonds, stimulate natural instincts and behaviors, and facilitate care. Enrichment items can range from a giant pulley toy for big cats, to a foraging log for birds or octopuses, to a mobile for monkeys. Visitors can watch animal playtime and training sessions at exhibits throughout the parks.

Species Survival Plans
All five WCS parks participates in the AZA’s Species Survival Plans (SSPs), cooperative conservation and animal management programs. The plans are devoted to maintaining genetically diverse populations of selected endangered species in zoos and aquariums, as well as to ensuring their perpetuity in the wild. Participants conduct research and field projects, including programs to reintroduce some species into the wild. Public education and outreach also create awareness of their plight in the wild. WCS zoo and aquarium staff chair the management groups as SSP coordinators, act as studbook keepers who compile historical records of the plan’s animals, and work with other parks to ensure threatened species thrive in our care. This tremendous commitment of staff time and resources is just one way in which WCS fulfills its mission of conservation, education and research.

The Bronx Zoo, Central Park Zoo, Queens Zoo, Prospect Park Zoo, and New York Aquarium are together involved in 64 distinct Species Survival Plans, ranging from big cats to tiny toads.

Based on an actual production farm with facilities representative of farming across the United States, the Center offers a wide variety of education programs for families and school and other groups. These excellent programs and field trips were designed by Cornell University faculty and local Youth Development Specialists.

Individuals and families can enjoy a Self-Guided Tour or any of a number of interesting, education programs covering topics such as gardening, landscaping, food, nutrition, health, and decorative arts to name a few. There is also a variety of programs for children.

The Suffolk County Marine Environmental Learning Center, located at Cedar Beach in Southold, is also part of the Farm & Education Center. That's out near the end of the North Fork of the Island, but for those who have the time and inclination it's well worth the trip. The Marine Center includes aquaria, a beach, fish hatcheries, and more.

The Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge on the south shore of Long Island is one of the last undeveloped estuary systems remaining on Long Island. Approximately half of the refuge consists of aquatic habitats including bay with marine seagrass beds, intertidal saltmarsh, high saltmarsh, freshwater marsh, shrub swamp, and red maple swamp. The refuge's saltmarshes, combined with the adjacent New York State-owned saltmarsh, form the largest continuous saltmarsh on Long Island.

The remaining half of the refuge is upland featuring the rare Pine Barren habitats of pitch pine, oak-pine, mixed oak, pioneer hardwood, upland shrub, and grasslands. The refuge's wildlife populations are quite diverse. About 300 species of birds have been documented at Wertheim. The refuge winters up to 5,000 waterfowl, the majority being black ducks - a species in nationwide decline. The coastal location also makes this refuge an excellent migration corridor for shorebirds, raptors and songbirds. The main purpose for establishing the refuge was to protect the Carmans River Estuary for migratory birds. The River is a NY State-designated Wild and Scenic river and one of the Island's largest. The refuge supports eight Federal and/or New York State protected species.

 

 The Long Island Complex is comprised of eight National Wildlife Refuges and one Wildlife Management Area, covering almost 6,500 acres of Long Island, NY. The primary purpose for each Refuge in the Complex is to protect and benefit wildlife. These nine units consist of many of the habitat types found on Long Island that are critical to migratory birds, endangered species and other wildlife. Long Island’s strategic location - situated in the Long Island Pine Barrens & along the Atlantic Flyway - provides important nesting, wintering and migratory stop-over areas for hundreds of bird species. Each Refuge in the Complex is unique and provides a necessary component to wildlife survival.

As part of the National Wildlife Refuge System, the Long Island National Wildlife Refuge Complex is committed to managing the nation’s wildlife. We encourage wildlife-dependent visitor use when it does not interfere with this primary goal. Please respect the animals and habitats you see when you visit. You too can protect wildlife!
