Earth Day is a time to honor the beauty and diversity of our planet while learning how to protect it for future generations. From lush forests to thriving grasslands, the Little Rock Zoo is home to incredible species that inspire us to take action for the environment.

Join us April 19th and 22nd for a day filled with family-friendly fun, all focused on celebrating and caring for our planet!

Did you know that planting native flowers can help support pollinators like bees and butterflies? Or that small changes, like reducing single-use plastics, can make a big difference for wildlife? Learn more with engaging keeper talks, eco-friendly activities, and hands-on opportunities to discover how you can make a positive impact.

All Earth Day activities are included with regular admission—come celebrate the wonders of nature and the steps we can take to protect it!
