National Pollinator Week

Dates: 6/17/2025 - 6/23/2025
Price: Included with Admission

Celebrate National Pollinator Week at the Little Rock Zoo!

Pollinators like bees, butterflies, bats, and hummingbirds play a vital role in maintaining healthy ecosystems. These incredible creatures help plants reproduce, supporting the growth of fruits, vegetables, and flowers that sustain both wildlife and humans. Unfortunately, many pollinators are threatened by habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change.

Join us  for National Pollinator Week at the Little Rock Zoo and learn about the unique pollinators that are essential to our environment!

Did you know that the Eastern Red Bat, native to Arkansas, helps pollinate nocturnal flowers like evening primrose and agave? Or that moths, with their nocturnal habits, help pollinate flowers that bloom at night? Discover these fascinating pollinators and more through special keeper talks, interactive activities, and up-close encounters with the Zoo’s unique pollinator-friendly residents.

All activities are included with regular admission—don’t miss this opportunity to celebrate and learn about the vital pollinators that help our world thrive!
