With an expected opening of Elephant Community Center in March 2013, according to the zoo's latest magazine issue, it would not surprised me if the final yard was open at that time as well.

there wasn't as much cabling or separation, if I recall from my last visit a year ago. the shift is new to me, at least. it seems habitat two is smaller now.
 
If you do look at the master plan, that yard is supposed to be a whole one. So they probably did divided it up for some reason.
 
indeed. it is strange, but plans change to suit the animals. still the best asian ele exhibit. can't wait for habitat 1 to open!
 
This allows more flexibility of the zoo can continue to holds it current male, additional females and an unrelated bull. Though the outdoor yards are simple the features such as the elephant trek and large barn make this a world class exhibit.
