    Did they have anything else very interesting? I'm surprised I've never heard of this place given how close it is to me. Looks like I need to visit it soon.

    Looks like a Mexican spider monkey to me. There are quite a few of them in the US.

    Mo Hassan is correct. It's a Savanna Monitor.

    Looks like a Cinnamon phase American Black Bear to me. But then, I only know about ducks -- and not much about those:)

    I think its a 'black' black bear, just with tints of brown in the coat. The Cinnamon colour phase is more orange-hued than this one.
