At the Little Rock Zoo, however, they are, and now they can do it much more efficiently.
Zoo workers plan a demonstration Thursday morning of a new composting machine that is used to mix manure from the zoo's elephants and rhinoceroses with leaf and grass cuttings from the grounds.
The machine was bought with a $13,000 grant from the Regional Recycling and Waste Reduction District.

Wonderful News. This compast should be sold to the public, returning the money back to the zoo. The Littlerock zoo can use something else to give them income that can be put back into the zoo. Ticket prices can only get to be so much before a family simply can afford a day at our zoo. People donate some money to your local zoo and help it grow. Or hey donate sometime and help it out.
