Hello

We are Beings of Light

Physical light infuses all aspects of animal biology, and is a most central parameter of animal welfare and wildlife conservation work.

 

We embrace multi-cultural questioning to enhance photobiology and emphatically embrace Diversity, Engagement, Inclusion and Access to do so.

Our Work

Mission

The Zoological Lighting Institute  (ZLI) supports the sciences of light and life through the arts for animal welfare and wildlife conservation, 

as a registered US based 501 c(3) operating internationally. This work explores  important aspects of light for animals. It is a critical but under-appreciated area of research for animal welfare, wildlife conservation, agricultural productivity, and medicine.
