MOVE the ZOO! - The Jackson Zoo

The Jack Zoo needs to move to the old Smith Stadium, close to the natural sciences and MS Children's Museum. It is also near Lake Femme or around this lake and the Riverboat Cruise. These animals look sad because their surroundings are "sad scenes". Landscape is everything from this state and foreign tourists.

Thank you for your opinion. The zoo is planning a master plan to transform the whole zoo for better visitor's experience. We will not move the zoo to a new place. Because it costs a huge amount of money that nonprofit organizations can not buy. We are improving the zoo's landscape and striving to make visitors more comfortable. We hope that you will visit us again in future to see what changes we are making.

The Jackson Zoo is located in Jackson, Mississippi. Jackson Zoo has attracted people both inside and outside the state for more than 90 years. This zoo has a collection of animals representing over 200 species of animals and nearly 380 species of animals, with a glimpse of wildlife from all over the world. In the 1930s, during the Great Depression many new buildings were built with the help of the Work Progress Control Office (WPA). Like almost all other cities and provinces, Jackson City uses the funds of the New Deal Plan to create a construction industry for citizens at difficult times. Through public works, city and zoo supervisor Irl Bennett left the facility serving Jackson for about 80 years. Today, many buildings built by WPA still exist. At that time, the castle was an ape island with dozens of rhesus monkeys, and the elephant cafe was a young Asian elephant.

In the spring of 2006, the Jackson Zoo opened the latest area of ​​the park, and part of the zoo is completely dedicated to the most beautiful creatures in Mississippi. In Jackson Zoo, there are many states representative of animals such as Japanese black bear, mountain lion, rattlesnakes etc.
