The book also focuses on the efforts of the New York Zoological Society, later the Wildlife Conservation Society, in the area of field research. This originated with William Beebe, who traveled the world observing wildlife in nature, his discoveries informing how to design exhibits and care for animals at the zoo. Later the zoo would expand to work with wildlife parks and reserves on various continents both for research and conservation. Later chapters bring updates at the zoo itself up to the end of the 20th century. The book makes a good case for why zoos remain relevant and necessary in the 21st century. ( )
