At the Little Rock Zoo, we believe in providing exceptional care for every animal that calls our Zoo home. Our dedicated team of animal care professionals works around the clock to ensure the well-being of over 200 animals. From daily nutrition and health monitoring to creating enriching environments, we focus on meeting the physical, emotional, and social needs of each animal in our care.

As an accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), we adhere to the highest standards in the industry. This prestigious accreditation represents the gold standard in animal care, conservation, education, and safety. It reflects our unwavering commitment to providing the best possible environment for our animals, as well as supporting the broader goals of wildlife conservation.
