[[underlined]] Zoological Park and Front Royal Conservation Center [[/underlined]]

The original 1973 Zoo Master Plan included forty-one projects at Rock Creek coating as estimated $118,000,000.  Since then, the program has been scaled down to thirty projects and approximately $75,000,000 at the Zoo in Rock Creek and approximately $15,000,000 of work at the Conservation Center.  This savings is due largely to the acquisition of the Front Royal site in 1975, which permitted a reevaluation of the Rock Creek development plan, eliminating many costly and space-consuming projects necessary for breeding and research.  The revised plan recognizes that many animals can be provided for at Front Royal at less expense than at Rock Creek.  Projects that can more effectively be conducted at Front Royal will continue to be sited there and include nearly all major hoofstock breeding requirements , back-up housing for small primates and numbers of other small mammals, bird incubation and breeder functions, as well as holding facilities for long-term breeding programs.
