Phoenix Zoo - Walk-through Squirrel Monkey Exhibit

August 2008. The pathway is split so that visitors go down one side and then back up the other.

This is a great idea for an exhibit. The monkeys have a great lush habitat to live in and at the same time zoo visitors have excellent viewing opportunities.
 
For a long time I believe that this was the only walk-through primate exhibit anywhere in North America, but in 2010 Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo opened Expedition Madagascar with a walk-through lemur area. Of course such exhibits are extremely common in many European zoos.
