No, Little Rock Community Days is a part of Zoo for All, but a separate program.  It is for the benefit of the residents of Little Rock who can provide proof of their residency with a driver's license, photo ID, or utility bill.  There will be four (4) days each year when those residents may come to the Zoo for $2 and park for $1. 

The intent behind the Little Rock Community Days is to give back to the local community in and around the Zoo and to the taxpayers who fund the Zoo. The voters of Little Rock provide 50% of the funding for the Little Rock Zoo and also provided funding for the 2022 Bond that will help build new exhibits at the Zoo. (The other 50% of the Zoo’s budget is provided for by revenue we collect at the front gate, concessions, rides, events, etc.)
