Tulsa Zoo License Plates

Now fans of the Tulsa Zoo will be able to show their Tulsa Zoo pride anywhere the open road may lead with a zoo specialty license plate.  But, this on-going project needs the support of the community in order to become the first license plate in the state to benefit a zoo!  Each plate costs $37, of which $20 will directly go to benefiting the Tulsa zoo. 

To make this happen, Tulsa Zoo needs 500 pre-paid applications in order to meet state requirements and make the plate the latest edition to Oklahoma’s specialty plate collection.
