Looks pretty good but still needs more areas to climb for these animals. I like how the plants are allowed to grow wild as it makes it more naturalistic. Also the mesh looks good compared to the old fencing. Is the single female allowed in both habitats or is she restricted to one? It looks like the fence on the other habitat was not replaced. Also will the zoo get any more leopards or just stay at the current number of 1?

I would like some more climbing areas, but I hope Sofiya can climb on her cave/holding area. The grass and other plants have indeed grown nicely. The mesh here allows for easier viewing, and I was disappointed when I found out that mesh wasn't used for the other habitat, but at least one habitat uses it. The zoo won't acquire any more leopards for now, as they plan to AI her eventually.
This looks okay to me, rather than more climbing oppurtunities I'd prefer to see denser vegetation. I guess that will come as the exhibit matures though.
For now she's restricted to this one as construction really hasn't begun on the other yet but I believe both will eventually be accessible by her.
This exhibit actually came out really nicely. I had my doubts on how it would turn out at the beginning but am pleased at how well the zoo has done so far and am happy to admit that I was wrong and that I underestimated the zoo when it came to this project. I especially like that the night housing building is made to look like rocks and that she can climb it. I only wish that they could have gotten glass viewing but the mesh is good enough for now.
I don't know... I don't think they went to the trouble of planting the second exhibit just yet if she couldn't access it. But you might be right.
EDIT: I believe ThylacineAlive is correct, because the other exhibit has a sign that says "Under Construction."
