Jungle Trails: Tropical African Animals
I was looking at gibbon videos at the zoo a few weeks ago and one of them was buff-cheeked gibbons using this Africa enclosure as their indoor exhibit.

For those who don't know before the buff-cheeked gibbons were moved to Gibbon Islands, they coexisted with the orangutans and lar gibbons in Jungle Trails, and before that they were in the macaque/langur exhibit. Can somebody confirm that third fact for me? I saw photos of them in a netted enclosure on Wikimedia Commons and I would even suspect them to have been in the outdoor sifaka exhibit.

@Moebelle - Do you know if the zoo is breeding their golden-cheekes, or do you have a pair? Denver had 2.2 all breed-able but labels them as a phase out. Which I think is weird as L.A. is still breeding theirs.
