The Suzanne and Walter Scott African Grasslands spans 28 acres and is the largest project undertaken in the Zoo's history. It has transformed the eastern boundary of the Zoo, from the former Grevy's zebra exhibit up to Pachyderm Hill, once home to African elephants and white and Indian rhinos.

The Suzanne and Walter Scott African Grasslands features breathtaking panoramic views of grasslands and African wildlife. There is an extensive use of grasses, acacia-like trees, kopjes and minimal visual barriers and includes twenty-five new buildings and structures.

A considerable amount of time has been spent on the experience Zoo guests will encounter. This project includes new restrooms, concessions and ADA accessible pathways.
