New juvenile Gharial exhibit, 2022-06-28

In the Chinese courtyard area between the Tropicalia greenhouse and the Chinese temple. Former Chinese giant salamander exhibit, the salamanders are now in the renovated restaurant on board the Mersus Emergo (reptile house building in ship form). Gharials are housed with turtles and fish.

Mr Gharial
Seems like a really nice new enclosure for them! I think it does work better with only partial water, the layered stones make for a really nice and unique effect above water, especially with the added foliage!

@Mr Gharial Definitely a big improvement from the small tank in the Mersus Emergo. The gharials seem to be growing rather slowly, so this exhibit might be sufficient for them for several years. My only real issue with the exhibits in this courtyard area is the amount of reflection on the windows.
