If the zoo decides to build the new Jaguar exhibit, it will be built in this section of RoA. I wonder if the Jaguar exhibit will affect the Griffon Vulture aviary which is situated between numbers 13 and 14 on the map above.
 
Yes there is. Money was the reason why the Jaguar exhibit was scrapped in the first place.
 
A friend from LAZ was in town for the holidays. we got to talking about this exhibit and the possible addition of jaguars to this area. they said they were looking into placing tapirs with giant otters, and using the tapir space for jaguars due to the fact a holding building is in place, saving on construction and costs. the otter exhibit would be enlarged some to take advantage of adding another viewing area.
