read moreThe Penguin Exhibit for the Little Rock Zoo is an exciting exhibit that focuses on the Black-footed penguins found in South Africa. This exhibit features at-grade and below grade viewing, a modern holding building and life support equipment that ensures the quality health of the birds while providing a great viewing experience to zoo patrons. The East End Project at the Micke Grove Zoo will provide new habitat for the Snow Leopards and Small Clawed Otter of central Asia. Themed rockwork and native landscapes immerse the visitor in the habitat of these animals while selective viewing opportunities balance the welfare of the animals with the expectations of the zoo visitors.
