      What is your impression of the new sifaka exhibit? From the photos it looks like it is large with lots of bouncing opportunities.

Also a feeding platform wouldve been nice. The exhibit felt a bit sterile.

      The Nocturnal Gallery sits empty. There has been some talk of bringing in New nocturnal primates however. Not sure what exactly
