EPISODE 126
We now have a new longest tour of the year! Does that automatically make it better though? In this case, yeah, a little. We've returned to Zoo Knoxville, a park that's made some improvements over the last couple of years. From creating award winning spaces for their tigers and gibbons, planning to send their elephants to a better home, to opening the ARC. The Amphibian & Reptile Conservation Campus made scales in 2021. Zoo Knoxville has always been a leader in herptile preservation, but now they have even more tools to show off and expand their care. The ARC is a 2.5 acre campus, featuring over 70 public species, almost half of which are endangered. In case you haven't heard, clearly this new development has lived up to the hype as the AZA just awarded Zoo Knoxville and their ARC the Top Honors for excellence in design.
