Just posting a handful of shots to hopefully give a flavour without over-spoiling!

Future banteng viewing from the boat ride.

Will the banteng share their enclosure with smaller hoofstock species or is it just banteng?
 
As far as has been announced, just Banteng. It's officially part of the Bali section, which would limit options if they want to be strictly accurate - I think the only thing they could realistically mix in and keep the theme would be Timor Deer, which would be nice. That would involve disregarding subspecies, but I'm sure they wouldn't lose too much sleep over it (they already have Negros Warty Pigs in 'Panay', anyway!).
 
I would think they could get a species of Muntjac,not strictly correct but certainly about!

I'm sure they could get Indian Muntjac if they tried - stacks and stacks in Asian zoos! :D
