The Zoological Lighting Institute

Description

Within the next five years the Zoological Lighting Institute will be recognized as the premier environmental organization addressing the impact of light on life and living ecological systems.

By connecting research in animal care with environmental studies, The Zoological Lighting Institute is well positioned to foster new discoveries and the implementation of ecologically sensitive lighting practices. The Institute will do so by linking best practices in animal husbandry with wildlife conservation initiatives in communities across the globe.

The Zoological Lighting Institute sponsors research, public outreach campaigns, programming initiatives, and provides consultations. Our ultimate goal is to understand and alleviate the impact of luminous regime modification on ecological systems and animals maintained in active husbandry care, so as to celebrate and support wildlife conservation.
