The primary charitable objectives of RZSS are to:

• Support and promote the needs of species conservation in the wild
• Provide formal and informal education on nature and species conservation to the local, national and international community
• Ensure the highest standards of animal welfare through excellence in animal husbandry and enrichment of the animal's environment
• Maintain groups of species with high conservation and educational importance and participate in managed conservation programmes for threatened species
• Encourage and enable research to increase knowledge and understanding of animal science, for the benefit of both captive and wild animals.
