Couldn't tell for sure (we did remember the question and look!) - both animals were in the main paddock today though. It would make a certain amount of sense to use the old Musk Ox paddock if they needed to separate for any reason.
As you say it would make sense, as good looking as the paddock is...its not the largest ever and the yard outside there house seemed to have a gate for that paddock.
If they are not using it for moose...it seems a good sized paddock that is being wasted
This is nothing like the full extent of it, but it's not the biggest Moose exhibit I've seen. I suspect the intention is to make use of the old Musk Ox pen eventually, but that is my speculation.
I've attached a few other views of the current paddock.
Interesting shots. The area with the pool looks as if it is might be in the area which used to be the original Indian rhino paddock, then was used for Congo buffalo and then completely demolished and grassed over as an 'open' space.

If my memory of the old buffalo paddock serves this isn't that area - that was closer to the giraffe paddock. This is directly opposite the wolves and behind the old Musk Ox housing - I'm not aware of this ever being used as a paddock before. Could be wrong though.
