      Do you know how big is the outdoor exhibit?

      The indoor building is the largest in North America, and while I have no idea of the exact measurements of the outdoor paddock I can say that it's definitely one of the biggest and best on the continent.

      The building is 40,000 square feet (one acre) and the North Yard is ~84,000 square feet (two acres). We also have a south side elephant yard that I think is about 15,000 square feet. While the south side yard is small we only use it for Bodhi, a four year bull.

      How would you evaluate this exhibit today? I'd say it's slightly above average but not as good as the modern exhibits built in recent years

      @GraysonDP I would absolutely agree with your statement.
