Some of the goals of the organization may include preservation, community education, and breeding. Efforts will be made to house the animals in naturalistic and modern habitat. The size of the zoological and botanical garden will be determined and emphasis on quality by determining what extent the community is able to fund and maintain the establishment of the zoological and botanical garden.
