Third World Primate House

August 25th, 2010.

I love the flower pots and foliage OUTSIDE of the cells!

An excerpt from my 2010 review:

Primate House – Of all the truly dreadful primate houses that I have had the misfortune to tour on this epic road trip (Cheyenne Mountain, Tulsa, Cleveland, Milwaukee, etc) none are as awful as this one. Ring-tailed lemurs, capuchin monkeys, patas monkeys and white-handed gibbons are some of the primates on display, and this building should have been bulldozed into dust many years ago.

Are those garage doors that open and close in front of the exhibits?

Essentially. They are open in the summer, and closed in the winter.
