The new location was set to be around 65 acres in a vacant farmland near the intersection of Kammerer Road and Lotz Parkway in south Elk Grove. Construction was expected to begin in 2027.
"This scaled-down version of the new zoo would house fewer species than our Land Park location and would not be financially or operationally sustainable," Churchill said in the statement. "All indicators therefore confirmed that this project was no longer the right choice, and was not the best way to invest our resources or our donors' hard-earned funds."
Officials have argued that the current 15-acre zoo has outgrown its site at William Land Park.
The zoo says it will have more information about what's next in the coming weeks and months.
