pool and waterfall GONE

July 10, 2018. Former warty pig and former Asian bear, used to have a waterfall and a large pool in front. Now housed East African crowned crane.
They had Visayan warty pigs in here before the crowned cranes, so it is certainly a decent hog exhibit. Red panda they had recently on temporary loan and put it in the king vulture aviary, which was the reason for renaming South America as Tropics Trail (though red pandas are not really from the tropics either, so it still makes no sense to me). The loan was during the winter months as they feel (and rightly so I think) that Tucson is too hot in the summer for such a high altitude animal.
