About this listen
In this episode of Voices of Pueblo, Gregory Howell sits down with Abbie Krause, Executive Director of the Pueblo Zoo, to explore how this historic institution is redefining education and conservation in Southern Colorado. With a legacy rooted in New Deal-era civic pride and a mission focused on environmental stewardship, the Pueblo Zoo is more than a place to see animals — it’s a place to learn, grow, and lead.
Abbie shares how programs like Zoo School, ZooALIVE, and the zoo’s summer camps are empowering Pueblo’s youth to become future scientists, educators, and conservation leaders. From hands-on learning experiences to teen volunteer leadership, the Pueblo Zoo is building pathways for curiosity, compassion, and community connection.
Whether you’re a parent, educator, animal lover, or simply curious about the future of conservation in Pueblo, this episode will inspire you to see the zoo in a whole new light. Tune in and discover why the Pueblo Zoo remains one of the region’s most cherished and essential educational assets.
