The Oakland Zoo (East Bay Zoological Society)

TPA is honored that the Oakland Zoo (East Bay Zoological Society) has asked us to continue to provide state and federal legislative advocacy and grant funding services to protect and promote their agenda in Sacramento and Washington, DC.

TPA was proud to help the Oakland Zoo secure the passage of SB 1062 (Lara), which helps protect elephants from abuse. The legislation was signed by the Governor in September 2016 and now prohibits the use of bull hooks and other barbaric devices to train or control elephants.
