Arkansas Zoo Gets $1.2M Boost | Little Rock News

Arkansas just got a wildlife win: The Arkansas Zoological Foundation just gave the Little Rock Zoo its biggest donation ever — $1.2 million for Project Zoo: Wildly Reimagined. This is part of an $11+ million voter-approved push to build better habitats for lemurs, anteaters, tortoises, capybaras, and squirrel monkeys — plus interactive experiences like feeding the tortoises. Designed to boost conservation, education, and visitor immersion, the project’s grand opening is set for spring 2027, with fundraising still open thanks to community events, corporate donors, and the Laura P. Nichols Foundation. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
