L.A. Zoo
Since December 2017, LA City Zoo has received about 10 tons of surplus food per month, which would have otherwise gone to waste. This food is now donated by World Harvest through a partnership with Republic Services. To date, over 74 tons of food have been redirected from landfills to feed the zoo animals.
