Williams Bob Matthews former board president , and several other volunteers who established a non-profit organization in 1985 called the Prescott Animal Park Association (PAPA). Initially, the animal park was established in order to inherit the former Payson Zoo run by Randy Ferry[1] but after the establishment of the association, Randy Ferry reconsidered and continued operations in Payson.
