blooloop is pleased to announce the panel of judges for the 2023 Zoo & Aquarium Influencer List.
Now in its second year, this year’s list is launched in association with PGAV, who is a global leader in the planning and design of unique destinations.
“PGAV Destinations is proud to be part of recognizing Zoos and Aquarium influencers from around the globe. As leaders in the animal care and conservation industry, it’s time we acknowledge the passion and critical role played by these influencers. The Blooloop 50 Zoo & Aquarium Influencer list does just that. The best zoos and aquariums are champions of conservation, leveraging their authority and trust to promote powerful educational programs and campaigns that address pressing global issues. They work to protect endangered species and correct suffering ecosystems. They bring expert voices in the fight against illegal wildlife trade, climate change, marine debris, and much more. Let’s recognize and celebrate their valuable contributions to the community and our world as a whole.”
