The Little Rock Zoo is located in Little Rock, Arkansas, USA. It is the only zoo in the state and is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). The zoo was founded in 1926 and is presently home to more than 725 animals representing over 200 species. Naked mole-rats are the newest addition to the zoo. The newly restored Over the Jumps carousel, a fully-restored antique carousel, will soon make its home at the Little Rock Zoo. A new lorikeet exhibit will open in 2007 along with the African Veldt mixed-species exhibit.
