In 1913, a large plot of land was purchased for the Society by the Edinburgh Town Council on Corstorphine Hill, Edinburgh, a site which later opened to the public as Edinburgh Zoo.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work = goodzoos.com website )〕 The Society received its Royal Charter in 1913.〔Cf. http://www.rzss.org.uk/about-rzss〕 The principal objective of the Society mentioned in the original charter is:
"To promote, facilitate and encourage the study of zoology and kindred subjects and to foster and develop amongst the people an interest in and knowledge of animal life."
