    Great trip to Exmoor today with only one no show (of the animals I wanted to see) being the fishing cat.

    Otherwise, lots of work going on.
    - Old wooden parrot aviaries have been demolished and are being replaced with new Exmoor style exhibits.
    - Work on porcupine enclosure, with the height of the wall being increased with viewing windows to accomodate a new species (along with the porcupines).
    - According to a keeper, they are still hoping for wolverine in the new year. Enclosure is still not completed however.
    - I shall upload photos of developments in the gallery.
    - It was my first time seeing the Rusty Spotted Cats outside aswell!
    - Chatted with a female keeper who ran the cheetah feed/talk - credit to the zoo.

    Feel free to ask any questions about the collection, and I'll do my best to answer.

    Much gnashing of teeth! I have never seen their Rusty-spotted cat. It is my nemesis!

    Oh that's a pain! I've seen them twice now... Once inside, and then today both in and out. They were so active!!
