DescriptionExhibits and Garden Care: The Philadelphia Zoo's core purpose is to connect people with wildlife, while creating joyful discovery and inspiring action for animals and habitats. The Philadelphia Zoo welcomes over 1.2 million visitors a year to its 42-acre Victorian garden and is committed to ensuring that its natural treasures remain available to a wide and diverse audience. Over the last ten years, the Zoo has been reimagining and transforming its campus and the overall Zoo experience, including the addition of KidZooU: Hamilton Family Children's Zoo & Faris Family Education Center and award-winning exhibits, McNeil Avian Center and First Niagara Big Cat Falls. McNeil Avian Center incorporates lush walk-through habitats, which house over 100 spectacular birds from around the world, many of them rare and endangered. Notable features include the rainforest, which immerses visitors in color and sound as they are surrounded by bird species, and the multi-sensory 4-D Migration Theater. First Niagara Big Cat Falls is a stunning landscape of habitats where guests come face-to-face with endangered big cats from around the world, including snow leopards, pumas, Amur tigers, African lions, jaguars and Amur leopards. At the center of the exhibit is Buck Base Camp, where guests can experience an activity-filled research station. At the heart of the Zoo, is KidZooU: Hamilton Family Children's Zoo & Faris Family Education Center, an indoor-outdoor wildlife academy and children's zoo that boasts interactive, educational experiences for our youngest stewards of the environment. KidZooU, which opened to the public in April 2013, offers dynamic displays, hands-on learning and rare and unusual goats, sheep, chickens and ducks for toddlers and tweens alike in a year-round indoor/outdoor exhibit. Located on the site of the former Pachyderm House, KidZooU was designed by LEED standards and is a sustainable site. Philadelphia Zoo is also the first in the world to implement an animal travel and exploration trail system to facilitate cross-campus travel for a wide variety of species. Two components of this innovative, interactive experience are currently open - the Treetop Trail, which opened in June 2011, and the Great Ape Trail, which opened in August of 2012 - providing visitors with interesting encounters as animals move along, above and across visitor pathways and maintaining the standard of excellent animal care for which the Zoo is known. Additional trails with both elevated and ground-based components will be implemented in 2014 and beyond. Developments continue during this transformative period in the Zoo's history to reach new heights in its mission. State-of-the-art animal exhibits and garden care are crucial elements unique to the Zoo that inspire people of all ages to action and leadership in support of wildlife conservation, and make this historically significant venue one of the world's most renowned zoological organizations.Description

DescriptionAnimal Care: The Zoological Society of Philadelphia, America's first Zoo, was established on March 21, 1859. Today, the Philadelphia Zoo provides care to a collection of approximately 2,871 endangered and exotic animals, with more than 1,300 animal residents. Setting standards throughout its history for exceptional animal care and management, Philadelphia Zoo holds many longevity records and is a Zoo of national and international firsts. From the first-of-its-kind animal health lab established on-site in 1901, to the first orangutan and chimpanzee births in the U.S. in 1928, to the first giant river otter born in the U.S. in 2004, it remains a Zoo of firsts as it undergoes an incredible transformation to provide more exciting and enriching experiences for the Zoo's animals and guests, alike. As part of this transformation, the Zoo is currently developing a first-in-the-world campus-wide animal travel and exploration trail system - starting with the Treetop Trail for small primates and the Great Ape Trail for orangutans. In 2014, we will open a trail for big cats, and in the near future, hoof stock, gorillas, and more will enjoy this experience and have more opportunities for long-distance travel. The trail system creates a more dynamic engagement for Zoo guests, as well, as animals move along, above and across visitor pathways. The Philadelphia Zoo does more than simply exhibit animals. We are part of a greater mission to help create national zoo conservation and breeding programs for endangered species that will maintain healthy, self-sustaining populations that are both genetically diverse and demographically stable.Description

DescriptionEducation and Conservation Programming: Driven by a passion for inspiring animal and environmental stewardship, and with a keen focus on promoting actions that support wildlife conservation, the Zoo's education department maintains a broad portfolio of dynamic, original and award-winning programming designed to meet the varying needs of teachers, students, educational institutions/stakeholders, community organizations, families and the zoo visitor. For over 150 years, America's first Zoo has been helping guests learn more about animals from around the world, their habitats, and the environment we share. By providing engaging, up-close and personal educational experiences for people of all ages, the Zoo is hard at work connecting its visitors with the wonders of the natural world. The Philadelphia Zoo's conservation program has one of the broadest reaches in the greater Philadelphia area, sharing critical conservation messages with more than 1.2 million people annually. At today's Philadelphia Zoo, the commitment to conservation extends through all program areas and is dedicated to conservation not only in our community, but around the world. The Zoo's commitment to educate and provide access for all children was the springboard for the Community Access Program (CAP). Through this program, the Zoo provides free admission to eligible Title 1 school children, community groups and 501(c)(3) organizations whose mission and organizational goals support exploration and education. A major facet of the Zoo's initiatives to strengthen its role as a community resource and to create future generations of environmental stewards, the CAP program dedicates at least 5% of total Zoo attendance to various organizations and groups. This allocation allows us to host approximately 60,000 people every year disbursed over five different categories including: Title 1 school visits, group visits, in-kind donations, Zoo on Wheels, and outreach exhibits. Philadelphia Zoo is truly a "living classroom," with the ambitious goal of saving wildlife and habitats by creating empathy through up-close animal encounters and meaningful educational experiences. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D - OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES As Philadelphia's most visited ticketed cultural attraction, the Zoo has a special connection to its community drawing caring and dedicated families together from the greater Philadelphia region and beyond since the 1870's. This special connection was enhanced by the Zoo as it recently completed significant functional and aesthetic improvements to traffic flow and pedestrian right of way benefitting visitors, neighboring cultural attractions, and the Centennial and Parkside communities by making the 34th Street, Girard Avenue and Zoological Drive areas near the Zoo safer for pedestrians while improving traffic flow and parking. The project included lighting, streetscape and sustainable landscaping, and traffic flow enhancements including upgrades to traffic signals and signage that improves traffic flow at the I-76 off-ramps, facilitates access to parking lots, and improves pedestrian safety. Mass transit improvements include signaled crosswalks and bus pull-offs at existing SEPTA stops.Description

Collections of Art, Historical Treasurers or other similar assetsForm 990, Schedule D, Part IIILine 1B(ii) - Exhibits are capitalized as unrestricted net assets, which are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Purchased additions to the animal and horticultural collections are expensed, as acquired. Additions to these collections acquired other than by purchase are not assigned a value and are not accounted for in the accounts of the Zoo. The amount reported on line 1b(ii) reflects the value of the exhibits, net of accumulated depreciation, at fiscal year-end. Line 4 - The Zoological Society of Philadelphia (the "Zoo"), a private not-for-profit corporation established in 1859, is America's first Zoo. Its official opening was on July 1, 1874. The Zoo, which is an accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums ("AZA"), acquires, maintains and exchanges its collection in accordance with AZA and United States Department of Agriculture regulations. The Zoo's core purpose is to connect people with wildlife, creating joyful discovery and inspiring action for animal and habitats. The Zoo shares its mission with a diverse audience through first-class educational programming, outstanding animal care, compelling exhibitions, and cutting-edge conservation efforts. Currently home to approximately 2,871 specimens of 330 species from around the world, the Zoo welcomes more than 1.2 million visitors to its 42 acres each year as a national attraction and revered Philadelphia landmark. In recent years, the Zoo has made significant investments in animal exhibits, including PECO Primate Reserve, First Niagara Big Cat Falls, McNeil Avian Center, and most recently, KidZooU: Hamilton Family Children Zoo & Faris Family Education Center, which opened to the public in April 2013 and is the organization's largest construction project to date. In April 2013, the Zoo also debuted the Centennial District Transportation Center, a four-story, 683-space parking garage. This development also consists of significant functional and aesthetic improvements to traffic flow and pedestrian right of way such as lighting, streetscape and sustainable landscaping, and upgrades to traffic signals and signage. This project was financed by federal, state, city, and Zoo funds. The Zoo is currently implementing a Transformative Master Plan, which provides more enriching experiences for the Zoo's animals through the development of an extensive trail system, facilitating travel across campus. The animal travel and exploration trail system continues the Zoo's commitment to excellence in animal care and inspiring guests to conservation action through engaging animal experiences. Two of the three trails comprising the travel network are currently open. In June 2011, the Treetop Trail system opened for use by small primates. In August 2012, a pilot project for the ape, bear, big cat system debuted, called Great Ape Trail. It's currently used by orangutans, with both elevated and ground-based extensions to be incorporated in coming years, including the elevated trail way for big cats, which is currently in development and scheduled to open in spring 2014. A third fully ground-based trail will be used by hoofstock including rhinos, hippos, giraffe, and zebras. These additions will be implemented in 2014 and beyond.
ENDOWMENT FUNDSFORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4The Philadelphia Zoo uses endowment funds to fund operating programs and relevant mission-based initiatives. In 2012, the Zoo used $5 million of board designated endowment funds to complete construction of KidZooU: Hamilton Family Children Zoo and Faris Family Education Center with the intent to repay this amount in full (including interest) as capital campaign pledges are collected.
INCOME TAXESFORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART XThe Zoo is a private not-for-profit corporation and, accordingly, is exempt from federal taxes under the Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). The Zoo is also exempt from state and local taxes under applicable statutes. The Zoo recognizes or derecognizes a tax position based upon a "more likely than not threshold". This applies to positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Zoo does not believe its financial statements include any material uncertain tax positions.

Supplemental Information Regarding Fundraising ActivitiesSchedule G, Part I, Question 2The professional expenditures paid to Schultz & Williams were for fees to conduct the fundraising associated with KidZooU: Hamilton Family Children's Zoo and Faris Family Education Center capital campaign.
Supplemental Information Regarding Fundraising EventsSchedule G, Part IIThe Philadelphia Zoo's annual Global Conservation Gala honors innovators and stewards of the planet, celebrating their remarkable contributions to wildlife and the natural world. At the inaugural Gala in 2010, the Zoo helped set a transformative course for a spectacular primate nearly extinct from southeastern Brazil, the golden lion tamarin. The award launched a ten-year commitment to the Golden Lion Tamarin Organization to spearhead conservation efforts to strengthen the precarious recovery for this species in peril. In 2011, we launched The Year of the Orangutan and created a multi-faceted campaign to inspire and empower local students, Zoo guests and other "orangutan champions" to better understand how their everyday choices truly impact regions of Southeast Asia and the amazing animals that inhabit them. In 2012, we honored conservation warriors committed to saving animals on local, regional and global levels. Over the past three years through the Global Conservation Gala, the Philadelphia Zoo has raised more than $1 million to support its conservation mission.

ExplanationThe Philadelphia Zoo's $7.75 million tax-exempt bond was part of the funding mix for the Centennial District Transportation Center. The funding for the $24 million project was provided by the tax-exempt bond and a mix of federal, state, and city of Philadelphia investments. It was the Zoo's largest construction project to date. It opened to the public on April 5, 2013 featuring a four-story, 683-space parking garage, as well as significant functional and aesthetic improvements to traffic flow and pedestrian right-of-way. The garage is located on the site of a former surface parking lot, one block from the Zoo's main entrance. This project benefits visitors, neighboring cultural attractions, and the Centennial and Parkside communities by making the areas near the Zoo safer for pedestrians and vehicles. The project includes lighting, streetscape and sustainable landscaping, upgrades to traffic signals, better signage to improve traffic flow, improved access to parking lots, and enhanced pedestrian safety. Mass transit improvements include signaled crosswalks and bus pull-offs at existing stops. Since the parking garage did not open until April 5, 2013, the Philadelphia Zoo did not have a Post-Issuance Tax Compliance Procedure for Tax-Exempt Bonds in place as of February 28, 2013. However, there were components of the policy in place, specifically one that prohibited any arbitrage activities using the proceeds from the tax-exempt bond. As of the filing of this Form 990, the Philadelphia Zoo has in place and is compliant with an approved Post-Issuance Tax Compliance Procedure for Tax-Exempt Bonds.Explanation

SCHEDULE L, PART IVJoanne HarmelinJoanne Harmelin, a director of the Philadelphia Zoo, is Chief Executive Officer and majority owner of Harmelin Media. Ms. Harmelin left the Philadelphia Zoo Board of Directors on June 1, 2012. The Philadelphia Zoo employs Harmelin Media as its primary agency for placement of print, television, radio and other media advertising. The great majority of revenue received by Harmelin Media from the Philadelphia Zoo is pass-through monies that are paid to television, radio and other media outlets. This relationship existed prior to Ms. Harmelin joining the Philadelphia Zoo Board of Directors and the Zoo is free to terminate this relationship at will. Oversight is provided through an annual relationship review by the Chief Marketing Officer and the Chief Executive Officer. Harmelin Media is compensated through an annual retainer, rather than the standard 15% agency commission, which provides the Philadelphia Zoo with a substantial annual cost savings.
SCHEDULE L, PART IVChristopher CashmanChristopher Cashman, a director of the Philadelphia Zoo, is President Commercial Markets at Independence Blue Cross (IBX). IBX provides health insurance coverage to the employees of the Philadelphia Zoo. IBX is the primary health care benefit provider in the Delaware Valley. The Philadelphia Zoo's employee benefit broker is responsible for reviewing coverage, rates and competitive alternatives. The amount of revenue related to this relationship is negligible to IBX. The nature of Mr. Cashman's position at IBX is such that he is removed from direct business contact with the Philadelphia Zoo. In addition, Independence Blue Cross is a sponsor of the Philadelphia Zoo. The fee paid by IBX for this sponsorship is at the market rate for similar agreements and is consistent with other comparable Philadelphia Zoo sponsorship agreements. These agreements are subject to review by the Chief Marketing Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11REVIEW OF FORM 990The Form 990 was prepared by a national accounting firm with the assistance of management. An initial and detailed review of the completed Form 990 is performed by the organization's Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer prior to filing. Following their review, the Form 990 is presented to and reviewed in detail by the Audit and Compliance Committee at a special committee meeting. Additionally, the tax partner from the accounting firm that prepares the Form 990 attends such meeting. Subsequent to the Committee's review, a complete copy of the Form 990 is provided electronically to each member of the Board of Directors. Each Board member has ample time and opportunity to raise questions about any item in the Form 990 prior to its filing.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICYThe Philadelphia Zoo maintains written conflict of interest policies for directors and employees. Each year, all directors, officers and employees in management positions are required to complete a conflict of interest declaration. All conflicts involving a director are reviewed by the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board; additionally, such conflicts are disclosed to the entire Board. Any board member with a conflict of interest is required to recuse him/herself from any discussion, negotiation, deliberation or decision making involving the transaction causing the conflict. All interests involving an employee are reviewed by the Director of Human Resources, the Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Executive Officer. Any interests that create a conflict are reported to the Audit and Compliance Committee by the Chief Executive Officer.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION REVIEWThe Chief Executive Officer's performance is reviewed annually by the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. The Executive Committee is charged with the responsibilities of a Compensation Committee. In conjunction with this performance appraisal, the CEO's compensation is reviewed and established by the Committee. This compensation review includes use of comparability data (for both peer organizations and local market benchmarking), salary surveys and other relevant and independent data. Contemporaneous substantiation of the Executive Committee's reviews and decisions is maintained. As for the approximate 12 individuals that comprise the Senior Leadership Team, the Chief Executive Officer presents to the Executive Committee for discussion their performance reviews, as well as his compensation recommendations and related peer organization and local market salary benchmarking.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19GOVERNING DOCUMENTSThe Philadelphia Zoo will provide copies of its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, audited financial statements and Form 990 to the public upon request.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATIONF. William McNabb, a director of the Philadelphia Zoo, is Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Vanguard Group, Inc. The Philadelphia Zoo has engaged Vanguard to manage and administer its defined benefit and defined contribution plans. These relationships were in place prior to Mr. McNabb joining the Philadelphia Zoo Board of Directors. The selection of Vanguard was made by the Investment Committee of the Board of Directors following the consideration of multiple financial organizations and a thorough review of their proposals. The Vanguard relationship is subject to a review by the Investment Committee every three years. The amount of Philadelphia Zoo assets managed by Vanguard is approximately $15 million; the total value of all assets managed by Vanguard exceeds $1.8 trillion. Since the fees paid to Vanguard of $29,928 are under the threshold for reporting on Schedule L we have not disclosed this transaction on that schedule. However, management and the directors of the Zoo feel that it is important to be transparent to the public so we are disclosing this transaction in Schedule O. Mr. McNabb recused himself from any Board or Investment Committee discussions or decisions directly or indirectly involving Vanguard transactions. Additionally, Mr. McNabb does not earn any benefit in his role as officer of Vanguard for the fees paid by the Zoo.
