Africa!: This area will open in 2013 along with cheetahs.
Have they announced what will become of the white lion space once the last white lion dies? Will it become a regular lion exhibit?
 
@DavidBrown The last white lion has already died last year. The exhibit is temporarily holding red-necked wallaby, but will soon be demolished to make way for a portion of Elephant Trek which opens next year.
 
@pachyderm pro The wallabies were just recently transferred elsewhere:)

Originally their space was slated to be a gibbon or some sort of other primate island. New plans show the gibbons will go towards the Trek's entrance, while I imagine this will be the footpath to the new elephant house.

By the way, to not mislead anyone, this did not become an exhibit for white lions, only regular lions. The white lions stayed in their old habitat.
