SDWAP - Elephant Exhibit - Sumatran Longhouse

2014/08/18 You can see the Longhouse from the Elephant exhibit. Its almost too over-powering now. I feel like I'm in Asia when I am standing in Africa. You can't really fix this though.

      @Otter Lord I wonder if the average visitor perhaps doesn't realize that the building in the background is part of the zoo's tiger section. The structure is certainly dominant.

      Also, in the photo from @DavidBrown (below) there is clearly some grass in the exhibit. However, whenever I've been to the Safari Park it has always been in the hotter months of the year and my general impression is that of a 'dust bowl' type enclosure. The herd dynamics are certainly wonderful but it would be great if the zoo updated the visitor viewing areas and even the actual exhibit itself.
