I am a student journalist with a media or interview request

Unfortunately, we are unable to respond to student requests for interviews, photography or filming. However, students are able to use the resources available on our website and social media channels with appropriate attribution.

Photo, video and partnership requests

Can I take film or photographs at your zoo?

It is a condition of zoo entry that any filming by visitors is for personal use only and not for commercial gain or publicity. Any media outlets or production companies wanting to film must contact media@zoo.org.au

Can I use an image or video you have published online?

All images and videos on our website are the copyright of Zoos Victoria or used with permission from the original copyright-holder. Please email media@zoo.org.au to seek permission before using any images or videos we have published online along with the specific purpose and audience of your intended usage.

I have a marketing or paid partnership request

Fundraising requests

I am requesting free zoo tickets for a fundraising event

As a not-for-profit conservation organisation we too rely on the generosity of other businesses and people, however we do have limited capacity to help other organisations with their fundraising activities each year. Please email contact@zoo.org.au with your request for more information.
