Baboon Enclosure at Cabarceno, 11/06/15

The habitat would be better suited for gelada baboons which are very interesting species.

Both are very interesting.
However, this WOULD suit geladas better.

Visually quite different rock, but, yes, it's very much gelada-type terrain: http://www.zoochat.com/1001/gorge-side-geladas-debre-libanos-gorge-389901/

Oh yeah, I forgot you saw wild geladas

In truth, there is plenty of unused cliff space at Cabarceno, so they could very easily keep both if they so desired.

Although geladas are on the exact opposite side of the continent!

Do they have signs for all these enclosures?

Though the terrain may be suitable, this doesn't really remind me of gelada habiitat. Where I have seen them, the cliffs were more steep with a very flat plateau on top. This is more suitable than lots of places where they are kept of course.

To me it looks more like where I have seen Hamadryas Baboons in Saudi.

Edit: Just read through the previous posts properly (I skim-read initially) and noticed that I have partially repeated Maguari, sorry.

The zoo isn't particularly arranged geographically (although there are a couple of themed mixed exhibits - savannah, Iberian fauna...).

All the enclosures are labelled, though you sometimes have to look for them as the enclosures are so big!

You can see one of the signs of the style used for the bigger enclosures here: http://www.zoochat.com/2369/lion-viewpoint-cabarceno-11-06-15-a-413486/
