- So this zoo will have two lion, zebra, and flamingo exhibits. That is ridiculous to build a new area of a zoo and not move any animals to the exhibit. This zoo is low on space anyway and having two exhibits for these species is just plain stupid. If the zebras do not mix well they should be sent away for a better behaved species.

Maybe the zoo doesn't have any animals in line to replace the other species. Also the zoo has to have other lions in order to breed. They have as well two galago, emperor scorpion, macaw, aardvark, bearcat, and three potto exhibits.

The last time the zoo had them was 2006-7 or maybe even earlier I think. I have a very,very, distant one second memory of them when I was a lot younger.
