Big plans to expand and upgrade an aging Santa Ana Zoo are now underway thanks to a robust public–private partnership making the $60 million project possible.

Aimed at renovating the oldest areas of the 70-year-old zoo, the overall project will include sprucing up the property, improving existing animal habitats, and adding new exhibits and attractions.
