In 2025, the zoo was renamed to honor one of Trevor’s former students, Dr. Tom Lovejoy, Millbrook Class of 1959. Known as “the Planet Doctor,” Tom was a pioneering conservation biologist who championed biodiversity, protected the Amazon, and shaped global environmental policy. Though he arrived at Millbrook uninterested in biology, Frank Trevor’s influence sparked Tom’s lifelong mission to protect the planet and inspire future environmental stewards.

Today, the Trevor-Lovejoy Zoo reflects Millbrook’s commitment 

The Trevor-Lovejoy Zoo is located at on Millbrook School Road on the north side of Route 44, six miles east of the village of Millbrook and four miles west of Amenia, New York. Turn onto Millbrook School Road, and go one and a half miles. A sign that says Trevor-Lovejoy Zoo Entrance & Parking will be on your right.
