Dates: 2/22/2025 - 2/22/2025

Celebrate National Wildlife Day at the Little Rock Zoo!

Wildlife plays an essential role in maintaining healthy ecosystems, from pollinating plants to balancing food chains. However, many species face threats such as habitat destruction, climate change, and poaching, putting biodiversity at risk.

Join us at the Little Rock Zoo to honor National Wildlife Day and learn about the incredible animals we share our planet with!

Did you know that tigers have unique stripe patterns, like fingerprints? Or that elephants communicate using low-frequency rumbles we can’t hear? There’s so much to discover about the amazing wildlife that calls our Zoo home.

Join us for our regular schedule of chats and animal feedings, plus an activity table and a special ambassador animal meet-and-greet—come meet one of the locals!
