For more than 30 years, ISIS has supported international cooperation among zoological institutions to share data for collection management and conservation. Now, ISIS is working with experts from zoological institutions worldwide to build a twenty-first-century database system – ZIMS.

ZIMS will replace the current ISIS software applications to provide a more accurate, comprehensive database. ZIMS, a Web-based application, will allow users to see collections of animal data (yours and others) in real-time from any authorized computer anywhere in the world.

ZIMS will enhance local care and international conservation efforts by providing better/faster access to information, increasing efficiency, communication, productivity and data quality.

"ISIS is unique – there’s nothing else like it anywhere in the world. The new Zoological Information Management System will be adopted by every institution that is serious about contributing to the preservation of animals."

-- Dr. Beth Stevens, general manager, Disney’s Animal Kingdom
