Thanks to donors and his biggest fans, Jack Hanna will be forever present at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.
The Kvamme family donated a sculpture and the bench in honor of Jack and Suzi's 40th anniversary at the zoo.

“It’s really the best honor I’ve ever had here. I'm serious, because this is my life, the Columbus Zoo,” Hanna said. “So, thank you, you guys.”
The sculpture and bench are near the entrance to the Heart of Africa, across from the young camels.
