What is left to open after the aviary opens? Is the ibex exhibit the last unopened exhibit?

The ibex/hamadryas baboon exhibit is the last major exhibit yet to open besides the aviary. However, based on the species list, there are a few minor reptile reptile exhibits left, too, according to the species list: red-headed agama, Mali spiny-tailed lizard, and girdle-tailed lizard.
 
Thanks for the video Jay. I know we haven't seen much, but what do you all think of the new gelada exhibit? From what we did see (what looked to be the back portion of the exhibit) it looks as it is very good for the animals. However, I really hate that ugly barrier wall on the left. Its such an eyesore. Its not the spectacular mountain hillside I envisioned, but its not an awful disappointment either.

20 Hamadryas Baboons are now on exhibit in Africa Rocks. I am hoping to get some photos on Friday.

Wow that is a lot. And they are all males?

(Edit - ooops, I was thinking of the geladas. I forgot they are getting both kinds of baboons ...assuming geladas are baboons, which I am not sure they are or not.)
