Boston Globe Magazine’s July 30, 2015 feature story, “Why doesn’t Boston have a better zoo,” examines the Zoos’ history and addresses challenges Zoo New England has faced for many years. As we continue to grow, work toward greater success and fulfill our mission, we need the support of both private and public sector investment.
