It occurs to me that the warthogs might be a better visual fit in this exhibit, and the red river hogs a better fit in the lusher shadier current warthog and slender horned gazelle exhibit. Both look nice!
It's a pity to see Red River Hogs, animals confined to areas with dense vegetation, being displayed on such an open terrain. I agree with Geomorph that this enclosure would be better suited for Warthogs. In my opinion there are way to many exhibits of this type for Red River Hogs!

Unfortunately I suspect a lot of the blame for this can lie with the destructive hogs themselves - plants of any kind below fully mature trees do not last well in RRH exhibits!
