Project Announcement: Greensboro Zoo Expansion

Heading Back to North Carolina!

This summer we will be taking a crew and heading to build a number of new zoo exhibits: cassowary, pygmy hippo, chilean flamingos, sand cat, black-footed cat, serval, fishing cat, and red panda. Some of the exhibits will be upgrades to animals already at the zoo, while others will be for animals new to the Greensboro Science Center! We had a wonderful meeting with many of the zoo's employees where we were able to showcase the models we built.  These models help give a visual example of what we hope to accomplish in an accurately scaled model, which also makes it easier for their experts to communicate the needs of the animals and feel comfortable in proceeding with the fabrication by Total Habitat.

Below you can view some of the original (V1) models we made for our first big showcase meeting.

Exhibits from 10 Years Ago

On our last trip to the Greensboro Science Center we had the joy of building the Maned Wolf, Gibbon, New World Monkey, Meerkat, Lemur, and Alligator exhibits. Mick & Dale checked in on our past exhibits when they went back to the Greensboro Science Center for the New Exhibits Meeting.

We can't wait to head back to the Greensboro Science Center and start making some new exciting exhibits for these animals! Check back here on our Blog or follow us on Facebook or Instagram for updates on this project and more!
