For nearly 50 years, the Anheuser-Busch Adventure Parks have been committed to species research, habitat protection, animal rescue and conservation education. As part of this commitment, SeaWorld, Busch Gardens and Discovery Cove maintain one of the largest animal information sites on the web. While the parks have contributed to wildlife conservation for decades, the non-profit SeaWorld & Busch Gardens Conservation Fund was established in 2003 to expand and strengthen this commitment in the U.S. and around the world. The SeaWorld & Busch Gardens Conservation Fund supports wildlife research, habitat protection, animal rescue and conservation education in the U.S. and more than 60 countries. Since its inception, the Fund has awarded more than $6 million, including animal crisis grants that provide rapid response and much-needed funding to animals and habitats in peril due to either natural or human-caused events and catastrophes.
