Perhaps a good read for you regarding the collections choice is the article the zoo posted last week I believe on their collectionplan. It might...
You are giving examples of animals that were imported back in the day. The more recent changes have all been 'sustainable' animals as the problem...
Kitfoxes are a rarity to come by and not great to hold on the longterm. Which is clearly the direction they seem to be going in with the desert,...
Keepers do daily walks around the Bush&Desert sometimes multiple times a day to observe the animals. But they also notice these things during...

Signing every corner of the park is not fun and ruins the immersion of a true jungle-stroll
For educational signs there still has to be found a perfect solution of basic and interesting info, and somewhat interactive while not clogging...
Those are the same photos but spread over multiple slides ;)

Breeding success with the Secretary Birds!! Early june the birds had three eggs that were put in the incubator. One egg was put back on the nest...
ah! The signage in the ocean is often outdated as the ecosystem is quite actively looked on and thus often species are phased out and in without...
