Yes this is a wonderful exhibit, although I would like it better if it had a few prey items in a similarly designed nearby exhibit, such as the gerenuk or zebras which occupy older enclosures elsewhere in the zoo.

Denver's Master Plan includes just such a panorama, both to the right and left of the current exhibit. Asian Tropics needs to be built first, so it will be a while.
While not terrible, the rockwork in this exhibit is far from the best out there: gates and doors clearly visible; obvious connections to concrete moats and walls, etc. But still. all in all a very good exhibit
Denver Zoo's master plan shows a large savannah exhibit that will be connected to Predator Ridge. In the description there will be a place for many african hove stock, Cheetah, and under water hippo viewing area. I guess they did the predators first because it was a more crucial need.
