SUMMARY: The Jackson Zoo received a positive evaluation from a recent USDA inspection in September 2024, with no compliance issues reported, indicating its readiness for re-licensing under the Animal Welfare Act. This follows earlier citations related to sanitation and safety concerns, including a malfunctioning cooler and rodent activity. Additionally, an incident occurred where a klipspringer was killed by a zebra. The zoo has since improved its conditions and recently hosted community events like Oktoberfest and Boo at the Zoo.
