    Newest Zoolex gallery is of Zoo Zurich's Amur tiger exhibit and it looks amazing and completes the himalayas presentation and I reckon that this series of exhibits are a must see.

    Zoolex's newest edition is Realm of the Red Ape at Chester and I was number 9 visitor to the page.:)...This on is really exciting because I've heard so much about it from UK members.

    It's there, just not on the opening page. Type in Chester in the search bar.

    It should be the first item in the gallery. If you click on gallery on the home page, it comes up.

    If it doen't try this.

    Are there any new ones for this month? It's the 15th and I'm starting to get worried that my computer isn't showing this months entry.

    So I was right...I got suspicious when it didn't show ROTRA either.

    Has anyone else noticed this bit.

    The animals have access to the paddocks, to four sand yards, and to two additional hardcore/sand yards, directly surrounding the house.

    Hardcore yards WTF?

    I think it's referring to the construction material
