Out Of Africa, New Years Day 2010

Tiger Splash Arena
I read Dean Harrison's autobiography a couple of years ago, and at the new location for Out of Africa are there still enclosures (or during the live performance shows) where animals like black bears, tigers, leopards, pumas, etc are all in the same exhibit at the same time? I've read about how all different types of big cats would sometimes share the same exhibit.
 
There are a couple mixed species predator enclosures, but most are single species. Here are the mixes I remember seeing:

1 puma with 2 american black bear

1 lion with 2 black leopard

1 white tiger with 1 black leopard



As for single species predators (but sometimes several individuals together), there were

tiger (several exhibits)
lion (several exhibits)
jaguar (two exhibits, one cat in each)
serval (world's largest serval enclosure, I'm sure)
spotted hyena
grizzly bear
bobcat
wolf
amur leopard
 
At least some of the visitors are lucky enough to be shaded from the ferocious Arizona sun
