Waterbucks

Looks like an extreamly well designed habitat did they do a complete collection of african animals?

Well the intention is that when in full operation this part of Africa ( a cave or "night" area it´s not open yet,where there will be common hippopotamuses, Nile crocodiles,Egyptians bats and birds in a outdoor aviary) the collection has about 250 species and 4000 animal (when are complete )and about 3 to 5 years will be made the areas of Southeast Asian and tropical America, it will be much smaller than African part.

Do you have have other pictures of the african section or even the plans/drawings of the layout?

For the map you can see:

in the 5th post is the map and the animals names in english, the new planed expansion are 10.000 square meters (more or less) for each new habitat, but I don't know when it´s build or what species are planned.The actual open African Zone are 75-80000 square meters more or less.

And you can see more than 120 pics here, in this same gallery: but mainly animals pics.
