I should be visiting this zoo next weekend. Since it's not visited by Zoochatters very often, I figured I'd check and see if anyone wants any updates/info about anything? This'll be my first time visiting this zoo, and am excited to visit a facility I've never been to before.

Can you take a some pics of their green monkey? Pics showing the tail would be appreciated.
 
Can you take pictures of the exhibits? Mainly if the kangaroos have an outside exhibit, as well as if any of the herps have adequate exhibits.

Sure, I'll make sure to get some exhibit pics to post to the gallery. The gallery for this zoo is almost exclusively pale fox pics, so I'll try to do my best to get pictures of other animals and exhibits.

The kangaroos did not have an outdoor habitat. Instead, their entire exhibit was perhaps the worst exhibit for any animal I've ever seen.

The vast majority of herp exhibits were inadequate, with some of the worst being the Caiman and Inland Carpet Python exhibits. Probably the closest thing to an adequate exhibit would be the Plated Lizard tank, which isn't great but nowhere near as bad as the rest of the zoo.

On March 31st, 2022, the zoo announced that they are building a new exhibit for "Ham Solo" (I don't know what animal they are referring to, probably something pig-related), as well as an improved bunny petting area.
