Title I: Federal Zoo Accreditation Board - Establishes the Federal Zoo Accreditation Board as an independent establishment in the executive branch and specifies the membership of such Board.

Requires the Board to establish a Committee of Advisers on Veterinary Science to consult with the Board with respect to standards or accreditations proposed, established, or revised pursuant to this Act.

Title II: Accreditation of Regulated Zoos - Provides that the Board shall establish classification categories and operating standards for zoological facilities subject to this Act. States that the operating standards prescribed pursuant to this Act for each category of facilities subject to this Act shall set forth: (1) the minimum space and accommodations necessary to effect acceptable natural or pseudonatural behavioral adaptation for each species exhibited; (2) the minimum staff of both professional and nonprofessional personnel required to provide for the proper maintenance of the animal inventory; (3) the minimum educational and training requirements for professional and paraprofessional staff personnel; and (4) the recordkeeping and data collection requirements with respect to the animal inventory.

States that, if the Board determines on the record after opportunity for agency hearing by the Board that any regulated zoo which applies for accreditation meets the operating standards with respect to the category to which such establishment is classified, the Board shall accredit such establishment; or substantitally meets such operating standards, the Board may provisionally accredit such zoo.

Provides that any provisional accreditation granted by the Board shall specify: (1) those operating standards with which the regulated zoo concerned is not in full compliance; (2) what actions such regulated zoo must take in order to achieve full compliance; and (3) those periods of time within which such action must be taken.
