Aren't the Dik-Dik somewhere temporarily as their old enclosure (and surrounding area) has been demolished and is being improved ? I can't claim to know where they are currently as I didn't notice them last time I went but I'm sure this claim wasn't intended for them !

On saturday, they were being housed in the mixed aviary near customer services, which is this enclosure. They are housed with Hammerkop, Von der Deckens Hornbill, Purple Swamphen and Eurasian Curlew.

for me it wasn't so much that dik-dik don't live in rainforest, it was just the actual appearance of the graphic. It not only looks amateurish and, frankly, plain ugly the way it is just plastered across the glass, but its not even a good educational message. To me this would rank up there with such empty attempts as putting "we can fly" on an aviary of birds or "I eat bananas" on a chimpanzee cage.
I remember seeing Marmosets in this enclosure, so I'm guessing that's where the fact came from. I don't understand why they don't remove these facts, it just adds to the confusion, and puts a dent in their reputation.
