Haha brilliant, didn't get far I assume, or this within the enclosure?

It's within the enclosure. It's a sort of barrier between the rubber floored area and the sandy area. The adults often have a open gateway, but the youngsters take a shortcut;)
 
Managed to get between 2 sections of the elephant house. The youngest (Raman?) tried to follow but his legs weren't long enough!
 
From what I've seen on more recent visits, I think they've changed from the rope barriers to metal barriers with decorative sections along them.

Yes, i've just had a look at some pictures from a few months ago and you're right
