The Great Bend Brit Spaugh Zoo has removed the old playground structure as preparation continues for the new playground construction.
The zoo stated there will be no playground for the next month or two months while the process is carried out.
The Great Bend Zoological Society and other local groups helped to fund the play area.
The new area will include a wheelchair accessible swing.
The zoo staff plans to use most of the plastic equipment from the old set for animal enclosures.
