TCYB member Morgan Smith, created an online petition as one of her projects towards a SMOKE FREE ZOO. We would appreciate your signature and comments on our online petition. Our goal is to reach 3,000 or more signatures by Spring 2011. Please click on the link above and show your support.
The Petition says:
To the Little Rock Zoo Board in Little Rock Arkansas: There are no safe levels of exposure to second hand smoke. There’s no such thing as any form of safe tobacco. We are in support of a SMOKE FREE/TOBACCO FREE ZOO, and believe that the Zoo Board should strongly reconsider having designated “smoking” areas near, close to, or anywhere in the park where youth and adults walk, pass by, and or are near. Likewise, we believe the same for the animals. Animals should not be near, reside, and or breathe smoke that lingers and flows in the air from other parts of the zoo.

If you'd like to collect signatures with us the next time we go, email operationzoo@yesteam.org. We'll send you the dates and need to know info! Thanks in advance!
