Ah. Well some newer developments I like are placing people

to roam more freely. Like the giraffes.
Still a lot of room for improvement, though. Always. But then,
I'm not really crazy about zoos. (But I am not about to get into
debating the pros & cons on this thread.

But I agree with you, it's a pretty good zoo, as far as zoos go.
I 've travelled a lot, mostly in America, and I made a rule
for myself to visit the zoos of other cities when I travel.
To begin with: I was impressed with your butterfly exhibition.
I went thru 2 sets of double doors leading thereinto,
where we mingled socially with the butterflies.
Since then, we have done that here too, but so far as I am aware, u did it first.
I was also impressed with your letting some of the peaceful animals
roam freely with the humans. (I remember petting an emu.)
We have some of that at the Bronx Zoo,
but I am
certain that it is not intentional.
(A peacock literally flew the coop; he was enjoying the outdoor restaurant area.)
