Los Angeles Zoo, Condor Discovery Room
Los Angeles, California
California Condor Rescue Zone (CCRZ) is a fun, facilitated play space designed for elementary school-age children. In an exciting immersive environment, children discover what it takes to protect California condors and the important role the Los Angeles Zoo plays in the survival of this amazing species.
MIG worked interactively with Lexington Fabricators, the Zoo’s education staff and condor keepers to develop this exhibit from concept through construction. MIG designed the play props and the trained staff and docents in play leadership.
The California Condor Rescue Zone is set up as a stage set with settings that reflect the life of the California Condor in the wild, its rescue from extinction, and the Los Angeles Zoo’s role in its survival. Children control their experience during each visit as they role-play as a condor, a Zoo vet or a biologist/keeper while they explore the exhibit.
