A community conversation on compassion, safety, and real solutions. If you care about the animals living behind the gates of the San Francisco Zoo, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

After years of alarming incidents and ongoing concerns about animal safety, the call for change has never been louder. Will new animal acquisitions and aging enclosures invite more suffering, or will San Francisco choose a different path that lets people learn about wildlife without harming them?

In Defense of Animals hosts a discussion with Michael Angelo Torres and Justin Barker of SFZoo Watch for the latest updates, frank discussion, and concrete next steps we can take together to build a safer, more compassionate future for animals and our city.
