Georgia Untamed Zoo is pround to partner with Kids Saving the Rainforest. KSTR's facility is based in Quepos, Costa Rica. The organization was founded by two 9 year old girls in 1999 for the purpose of educating people around the world about the ecological importance of the rainforest, and to set-up programs to preserve and protect the rainforest and its wildlife. Their mission is to protect the diverse wildlife of flora and fauna in Costa Rica’s Pacific Coast with conservation projects which include KSTR’s wildlife rescue center where they rescue, rehabilitate and release injured, sick and orphaned animals back to the wild. Animals that can never be released because they were either raised in captivity as illegal pets and became reliant on humans for food or permanently injured or disabled are cared for in KSTR’s wildlife sanctuary. KSTR also works to minimize the causes of why animals need to be rescued with their education program, reforestation project and wildlife bridges project. We implement these projects to protect the wildlife in the community by mitigating the major threats to wildlife in the region. Georgia Untamed Zoo is home to multiple species that KSTR works directly with that are native to that geographic area including Sloths, Squirrel Monkeys, Macaws, Javlina, and more! Georgia Untamed Zoo pledges 10% of all Sloth Encounters, Capybara Encounters, and VIP Encounters directly to help fund KSTR's projects including Wildlife Bridges, Wheels for Wildlife, and the Wildlife Santuary Hospital.

Georgia Untamed Zoo is proud to partner with the efforts of Worth Wild Africa. This conservation initiative is dedicated to protecting Africa's most at-risk wildlife and the fragile ecosystems they call home. Founded on the belief that preservation through equpment funding and education must go hand in hand, the organization works across multiple fronts to create a lasting impact. In the field, Worth Wild Africa supports anti-poaching patrols, community-driven conservation projects, and habitat restoration programs aimed at safeguarding species ranging from lemurs and pangolins to elephants and big cats. Beyond boots-on-the-ground work, the organization invests heavily in outreach and education, fostering connections between local communities, international partners, and the broader public. This ensures conservation is not just about saving animals, but about strengthening livelihoods and creating sustainable coexistence between people and wildlife. Worth Wild Africa also partners with zoological institutions, like Georgia Untamed Zoo, to raise awareness, generate funding, and broaden the reach of their mission. Most recently, Georgia Untamed Zoo aided in WWA's Lemur Project which will help fund for new field photography equipment that will help researchers study the 112 species of critically endangered lemurs found on the island of Madagascar . At it's heart, Worth Wild Africa is about protecting today’s natural wonders so that future generations inherit not only the animals, but also the vibrant and diverse landscapes that sustain them.
