*There are some species that were born/hatched in 2022 that were never made clear, including domestic goats of various breeds, (albino) Bennett's wallaby, emu, scimitar-horned oryx, domestic rabbit, etc.
 
I've had my eye on this place since it's "relatively" close by (3 hours away, but I could feasibly sneak it in during a trip to Charleston). Has anyone been here? They seem to have a few common species I've somehow never managed to catch (caracal and scimitar oryx), but their cat and primate enclosures look pretty dismal at a glance so I can't quite tell if this is properly a roadside racket or if they might not be too bad to check out once.

I've been there. A few uncommonly kept reptiles. The exhibits are mostly pretty dismal. The rarest animal they keep as far a I remember is White-fronted capuchin.
