Visited a new zoo for me today. Unfortunately, I could not find the "Frog Room" exhibit advertised on their website, which likely would've helped me with this challenge:
Erie Zoo
50. Caracal- Caracal caracal
51. Eurasian Lynx- Lynx lynx
52. Lesser Spot-Nosed Guenon- Cercopithecus petaurista
53. Allen's Swamp Monkey- Allenopithecus nigroviridis
54. Red-Necked Wallaby- Notamacropus rufogriseus
55. Eastern Grey Kangaroo- Macropus giganteus
56. African Penguin- Spheniscus demersus
Yesterday, I finally got my last two Buffalo Zoo species.
57. Black-and-Gold Howler Monkey- Alouatta caraya
58. Puerto Rican Crested Toad- Peltophryne lemur
 
This will probably be my last update to my list for this challenge for the next several months, and it's mainly just crossing off two species I missed on my first visit

Lincoln Park Zoo - 2/24
Mammals
31. Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis)
32. Mohol Bushbaby (Galago moholi)
Was able to visit the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences recently, so I can mark down another couple species for my list
North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences - 4/21
Amphibians
11. Squirrel Tree Frog (Dryophytes squirellus)
12. Pine Woods Tree Frog (Dryophytes femoralis)

Current Total: 51 species (32 Mammals, 4 Birds, 3 Reptiles, 12 Amphibians)
 
I have just gotten back from a visit to the Philadelphia Zoo and added 23 eligible species from that facility. I have also visited the American Museum of Natural History and realized that facility netted me 1 eligible species. Here are my updates.

Updated the formatting, and each species is only counted once.

Amazing! Where they can be seen?
 
Amazing! Where they can be seen?
They are in the Asian Plains field exhibit, so they be seen from the overlooks on the pathways between Condor Ridge and Tiger Trail and between Tiger Trail and the Elephant Valley development or on a cart or caravan tour. They’re pretty easy to pick out because they look so different from anything else out there. In the morning, I saw them from the pathway while they were on the grassy hillside closest to the overlooks, and in afternoon I saw them from the cart while they were were in the rocks under the big ficus trees close to the boma.

The chevrotain would also not be eligible for this challenge, as they are not true deer (Tragulidae instead of Cervidae).
