- In zoo center the Komodo dragon indoor exhibit is complete but will not open for at least a few more weeks (probably November). There are 3 smaller moniter tanks as well. The komodo dragon indoor exhibit looked great and up to WCS standards. It streched the whole width of the building and was filled with sand, plants and rockwork. Outside the babirusa exhibit has been cut in half with one half being for the outdoor komodo exhibit and the other half being for a public pathway. I looks great so far. The former tapir yard is being prepared for giant tortoises.

This looks really good. Like their natural habitat. I'm excited to see Varanus komodoensis, Varanus mertensi(favorite!), Varanus macraei and Varanus acanthurus acanthurus, when this opens!

When I visited last April, Bronx had a hatchling on-exhibit in the World of Reptiles nursery but it was labeled as V. a. brachyurus, V. a. acanthurus.
