A cosmetic update to the CT's Beardsley Zoo's Prairie Dog Exhibit first built over two decades ago. In addition to updating the exhibit's animal and pedestrian barriers and the surrounding landscaping, the project also will see the addition of a mine themed entrance and exit to the the exhibits popular immersive tunnels, a wheelchair accessible immersive viewing area, and improved viewing area in the front of the exhibit; perfect for photo opportunities and getting close up to the prairie dogs inside the exhibit space.
