I saw that also but i think that they just say that to get peoples hopes up on elephants returning quicker instead of takeing time to build a completely new exhibit. I am going here tomorrow and will ask some one about it. And why would they show on the official masterplan that the are getting a new complex
Masterplans are not detailed futures. Look at the great bear wilderness exhibit on the masterplan. It looks very different from what they actually built.
The masterplan one the link has the correct great bear wilderness because they update it and i am sure that they would update it if there was a major change like not makeing a new building that would cost over 150 million that they were raiseing already. plus there is not much room by the pachyderm building at the location on the master plan it is all abandoned hoofstock enclosures and would be right next to the other African animals.
