About
Invertebrate zoo and research: We are proud to be the first stand-alone butterfly flight house in the world and only the second invertebrate zoo to be accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). AZA is dedicated to the advancement of zoos and aquariums in the areas of conservation, education, science, and recreation, and we hold ourselves to the most rigorous professional standards. For over two decades we have worked determinedly to forward principles that shape our conservation efforts both locally and globally. At Butterfly Pavilion, we believe that an appreciation of the environment begins with an appreciation for all living things. Each day we teach the young and old alike about the need for conservation because with knowledge and empowerment we will protect the world's natural habitats for generations to come.
