The last part of Jungleworld is a large, open room with painted storks, a huge pond with giant fish, waterfowl, other free-flying birds, and flying foxes.

@AnaheimZoo: if you have the time could you remind me what the order of exhibits is in JungleWorld (just a general tour, not with complete species lists!)? I know that there are leopards, Malayan tapirs, the python exhibit that looks like the python is on the loose above your head, and a gallery of terrariums. What are the other exhibit highlights these days?
Ooh, David, tough question. I went in February, so I might not remember everything. Let's see if I can get this.
When you walk in, there's the tree-kangaroos on your right, the otters on your left. Up ahead, there's terrariums for a species of tree monitor and a turtle or tortoise, and directly ahead of it is a terrarium for mudskippers and a variety of other fish. Ahead, there are Javan langurs, then silvery lutungs, the tapirs, leopards, terrarium gallery with snakes, turtles... There was also a tank with mouse-deer in it; I can't seem to remember exactly where that exhibit was... Then there's the second room with the storks, fish, birds, and flying foxes. There aren't any exhibits after that, so... Sorry I couldn't get it all. I might be going on Tuesday; I'll take note of the species just for you!
Yes, I'm surprised you remembered the python! I couldn't get a good picture of it, it was sooo blurry.
