@MonkeyBat Yep! I saw a couple of families actively encourage their kids up into the rocks on my visit...

@Dormitator @MonkeyBat I am annoyed that know zookeepers around were here to tolerate the kids behavior. Kids just don't jump into auk enclosures, the parents need some common sense!

@Luke da Zoo nerd Zookeepers can't always be around to tell people not to do stuff, and unfortunately a lot of people lack common sense.

@MonkeyBat Lol. And I know that zookeepers can't be around all of the time.

Sadly these days people are desperate to take photos of kids for family/friends/social media and don't necessarily use common sense whilst doing so...

@ThylacineAlive sort of. The guest walkway is sunken slightly so they stand below the water level but their heads are above (kinda visible in the pic) but the path just runs around one side of the aviary. It's a little bit like some of the aviaries on the bottom floor without glass in World of Birds in the Bronx but more immersive.
