Thank you!! Looks pretty serious. The reasons make me even more confused, and annoyed, that he was allowed to take three of Turtle Back's cheetahs with him when he left.
 
Also, opening day is today, and here are some of the new exhibits and changes that have happened:

There is a new exhibit for snow leopards.
Zoo has been assigned (0.2) cheetahs and will be at the zoo starting around May-June.
A lot of the animals have been switched around to other exhibits, such as the giraffes.
The camels have a new feeding deck.
Exhibits for tapirs and naked mole rats are still under construction.
Keeper talks are back, which have not been at the zoo since 2020.

Of course they're getting cheetahs now :rolleyes: They have multiple giraffe exhibits so not sure where they got switched to.

Not liking all of his talk about putting the customer first, having keepers constantly circulating to talk to visitors, etc. The animals should always come first and keepers should be focused on their care.
 
Their website says they have a drive-thru opening Summer 2022 called The Preserve (as original as the zoo's name). I can't find any info on it.
