Mass Notification for Zoos
Zoos bring visitors fascination and excitement through indoor and outdoor exhibits filled with exotic animals and reptiles. While emergencies may be the last thing on a visitor’s mind, quickly reaching hundreds of individuals across a large area can pose a challenge for staff and emergency personnel.
The Alertus System leverages existing infrastructure through a flexible, on-premise mass notification solution that utilizes multiple layers of alerting modalities. We help provide peace of mind by supplying zoos with a comprehensive emergency notification system built to handle any situation.

Leverage Existing Alerting Methods
Alertus specializes in unifying mass notification for zoos through audible and visual solutions to ensure on-site personnel and visitors receive and appropriately respond to alerts.
Digital Signage Override
Send non-intrusive audible-visual alerting through TV systems or LED marquees without disturbing zoo animals or sea life.
VoIP Phone Notification
Activate audible and visual notifications on all or select VoIP phones and speakers for precise, enunciated staff paging for emergency or non-emergency communication.
Two-Way Radio Integration
Provide emergency communication and situation management to zoo security radios through text-to-speech technology.
PA Systems
Embed Alertus’ IP Text-to-Speech Interface into existing PA devices to deliver clear, voice emergency alerts.
We understand that zoos may rely on funding and require cost-effective solutions; Alertus’ level of integration means our System can complement or expand your non-profit organization’s existing emergency notification module.
Expand Your Notification Reach
Reducing panic and disseminating information promptly and reliably during an emergency is critical. Zoos must implement mass notification solutions that enhance emergency communication without panicking visitors or disrupting the animals.
Activation Button
Wall-mounted push buttons boost visitor and personnel safety through customized, preset emergency template messages to improve communication effectiveness and heighten action awareness and urgency.
Alert Beacon®
Not every emergency will affect everyone, so implementing zoneable audible-visual devices like the Alert Beacon decreases disruption by allowing safety officials to notify specific zoo exhibits, areas, or facilities of an emergency.
High Power Speaker Array (HPSA)
Alertus’ HPSA requires less installation time and ensures you can launch concise, enunciated emergency notifications or severe weather updates across large, noisy outdoor areas with animal-friendly sounds and tones.
