Keep copies at all keeper stations and the operations centre. Follow the scenario-specific section. Do not improvise — follow the steps in order.
An action-sequence emergency response checklist for zoo staff covering the five major emergency types: animal escape, fire, severe weather, medical emergency, and large-scale guest evacuation. Each scenario has its own step-by-step procedure with role assignments.
Zoo emergencies are uniquely complex — an escaped dangerous animal requires a completely different response from a building fire, yet both may involve evacuating thousands of visitors. This checklist serves as the quick-reference guide that staff can follow under pressure.
