LA Zoo Partnership
In 2014, LAWA shipped 130 cubic yards of acacia and ficus to the Los Angeles Zoo as part of the LAX/Los Angeles Zoo green waste diversion partnership. Acacia and Ficus are not native plants to the LAX/El Segundo Dunes and must be removed by the airport. The Zoo uses the acacia and ficus to feed exotic animals.
