Como Park restoration set to begin in St. Paul

The Como zoo will soon have up to $200,000 to improve the zoo. They are going to start with volunteers removing invasive tree species. They have to change almost 18 acres of park land. Also they are building a new classroom to educate people about wildlife and nature.The project is being paid for by the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund. Currently 40 percent of net state lottery proceeds are dedicated to building the fund to benefit Minnesota's environment and natural resources. I think that this is a great idea. The fact that the zoo is free is hard enough for the zoo to survive.
