Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium News 2017

I was there today too. The train track has been removed and replaced with a gravel walkway for Dinosaurs. I will be happy when the down escalator is open. That walking path is steep. They painted Coolio's exhibit gray and I am happy. When the algae grew in there before, you never saw the blue anyway.
Also what did you think about the lynx exhibit progress
 
It looks nice. I am not sure they enlarged it. I expect the target is by May 20th. I noticed equipment and a couple holes in the old Kodiak bear exhibit.
yeah they might try tearing it down and to try and make room for something for future exhibits but the lynx exhibit looks bigger in my opinion
 
MORE ZOO UPDATES:
Jungle oddysey is due to open on either may 26 or 27
There is construction going on in the one remaining bear grotto
There is a possibility that Ibo the gorilla is pregnant
I also learned that the zoo still has white faced sakis they do shifts in the capuchin exhibit
Decoration has begun in jungle oddysey

If Ibo is pregnant, that is going to be s beautiful baby with Mrithi and Ibo as parents.

Any ideas what is going on in Rocky's old exhibit?

Rockys exhibit has some wooden posts in it it kind of looks like a large Pergola probably another eating area I'm guessing Ibos pregnancy is uncomfirmed but her belly looks larger than before and don't forget Harry could the dad ;)
 
Also sadly I wasn't able to make any more videos for my channel but I finally got to see the baby rhino

If she is pregnant, it is not Harry. He has had a vasectomy. Plus they are cousins. Hatari was their grandfather.

Oh i did not know that that's right they are both from Cincinnati that's why he didn't have any offspring yet thank you
 
With Hope gone, Ibo is the only on the SSP has any influence over since everyone else belongs to Pittsburgh. Ibo was not approved to get pregnant by the SSP in the draft of the last breeding plan. Cincinnati has control over Ibo. The plan says Ibo provides stability because of Ivan and cannot be moved. (Or something like that). Since Pittsburgh left the AZA, this is one of the SSPs that classifies them differently than most other SSPs.

I've checked both gorillasland and gorillas galore and they both say hope is still at the Pittsburgh zoo
