Lemur Walkthrough at Colchester, 28/05/12

The walkthrough can only be accessed by riding the road train (which is also the only reliable way of seeing the Black-backed Jackals). You are taken through the exhibit by the train driver, and can either then ride back to the station or exit the lemur enclosure through a second exit, emerging near the lions. To be honest, if I ride the train again next time it'll be for the jackals - the lemurs can be viewed perfectly well from all the old white tiger viewing areas and the whole procedure is a bit of a faff.

I hate it when Zoos place unusual exhibits such as Colchester's Jackals, out of reach of easy viewing. Pl's Brown Hyaenas are the same. Of course most visitors are unlikely too care much with such species and presumably that's why they remain as they are.
