I will certainly try and check it out for you. Hopefully I will get to the zoo before Penguin Days are over.

The African Wild Dogs are still in the plans for Africa, but the kopje is still up in the air according to a post on the zoo's Facebook page. There may or may not be an aviary, but there will be a lot of birds.

If you go to the "Everyone (Most Recent)" tab and scroll down you will find the post. Someone had asked about the plans for Africa, and the zoo responded with this, "wild dogs are still in the plans. I'm not sure about the kopje, I know there will be lots of species of birds."

The 137-year-old Reptile House will be undergoing a major renovation. Some noticeable changes will include a new red roof (the original color of the roof), new energy efficient windows, as well as a new Galapagos Giant Tortoise exhibit along the outside of the building which will open this summer. The aesthetics of the building will be maintained, and the foundations will be reinforced to ensure that the building is still standing in another 137 years. The Reptile House will remain open throughout the renovation process.

It appears that Thane Maynard has confused Chelonoidis nigra with Colossochelys atlas
 I am also glad that there will be an outdoor exhibit at the Reptile House, but I would have really liked to see an outdoor exhibit for the Chinese Alligators along with the renovation. |

I will be making a trip to the zoo either this weekend or next if all goes well. It will be nice to go back and see how everything is coming along with construction.

Unfortunately my plans for a visit today fell through. Hopefully I'll make it to the zoo next weekend.
I was searching around on ISIS today, and I found that the zoo is listed as having three female Northern Red-sided Opossums. The zoo is not up-to-date on ISIS, but to my knowledge they've never been on exhibit.... |

A tweet announced that the zoo will be getting a male aye-aye very soon.

That's very exciting news. I'm looking forward to the possibility of the pitter-patter of little aye-aye feet :-)
Now for some news that I've heard through the grapevine. Apparently an undisclosed species of primate escaped from its enclosure at the zoo yesterday, but all of the animals involved were quickly recovered. |
