ZSL London Zoo Personal Vision Of London

In reality, axis are large ungulates, they would reduce the area to mud very rapidly, also there is little flight distance for them if they become spooked by anything, considering the public would pass a metre or so away from the perimeter fence along the canal 24 hours a day. I would say 2 or 3 hog deer or muntjac would work, perhaps with cranes, although pinioning is not ideal.

I would imagine that some 'tame' deer would do ok in a paddock along the main strip of grass along the North Bank. I think your ideas for hyenas is a good one, they aren't as agile as large cats and could be fenced in an open-topped enclosure in this space.

You have however identified an interesting and unused strip of land around the education centre.

Ok, how about lions leave the collection (however i might change that by adding african lions somewhere else in the zoo) and have the Stripped Hyenas as the main exhibit at the north bank, Hog deer are added also with a nearby enclosure for Honey Badgers. The Hanuam (spelling ?). The Langur enclosure is built on the land near the education centre and the Snowden Aviary remains the same as planned and the whole zone is called 'Unoticed India' due to the wide variety of 'unknown' species (well in the average joes eyes)??

For a netted or timber and mesh enclosure, there is actually a good deal of land around the education centre to accommodate a primate species, especially if part of the education building was used for the indoor housing.
 
I don't agree with all of Cat-Man's ideas but they are interesting. Red Panda, I think we have probably all made a typing error on here at some point and accepted standard use of the word 'defence' would still have 'c', not 's' in UK usage.

It was not about the spelling, but fair play and well spotted. Of course, for the sake of complete accuracy (and a fair amount of pettiness on my part), I will point out that my username is 'redpanda' as opposed to 'Red Panda' :p
 
Fair enough and backs up what I was saying really, so I'm not offended that you pointed out the correct spelling of your username.
