Barakas and Ipuh

I think, Barakas is the left animal, Ipuh the right one.
I don't know, I've found this picture in my collection, it is a Trading card from the series"The World famous San Diego Zoo-Animals of the wild", published in 1993. I have the complete collection, full of brilliant pictures of rare species !

But I think, the zoo kept rhinos always in the elephant mesa.
 
was this were the giraffes are currently in elephant mesa or were the bairds tapirs and capybaras used to be ?
 
The exhibit now holds a rotating cast of wolves, cheetahs, New Guinea singing dogs, and domestic mutts!
 
How thew mighty have fallen...:(

Actually it is quite an in-genius way of training somewhat difficult animals for being educational animals/animal ambassadors. They've been doing it for quite some time, just that they display them in this netted enclosure instead of not at all.

Simple math:

Sumatran Rhino > ANY domestic dog or cheetah companion regardless of the ingeniousness of their training.

:cool:
