Zoo Pride Week (also known as ZPW) is a world-wide holiday taking place from July 1st through July 7th annually. It was first announced in April 2019 on ZooVille.org by ZTHorse to create a worldwide zoophile awareness movement.[1] Zoo Pride Week is the promotion of self-affirmation, dignity, equality, and increased visibility of zoosexual people as a social group. Pride, as opposed to shame and social stigma, is the predominant outlook that bolsters most Zoo rights movements.

Ranging from solemn to carnivalesque, pride events are typically held during Zoo Pride week or some other period that commemorates a turning point in a country's zoosexual history (for example, February 2014's Zoophile-Rights demonstration in Potsdamer Platz, Berlin). Some pride events include zoosexual pride campouts, parties, parades and marches, rallies, commemorations, community days, dance parties, and festivals.

Common symbols of pride are the Brown, Green, Blue flag or zoo pride flag, the lowercase Greek letter zeta (ζ), and the yin-yang circle with a zeta.
