Asante sana / Thank you!

The ratel is not there anymore, is it?

You mean not at the zoo or not in this enclosure?
When I visited I saw one ratel in the outdoor area. I didn't see it in this indoor area but there was a sign and the outdoor area appeared to be attached.
I don't know if anything has happened since my visit, though I imagine someone else will.
