List of Animals:
Lion-tailed Macaque
Asian Water Buffalo
Albatrosses
Gang Gang Cockatoo
Bandicoot
Greater Bilby
Pangolins
Walrus
Shoebill
 
The only captive albatross, a female Laysan Albatross, is at Monterey Bay Aquarium.

White-Bellied Tree Pangolins are held or bred at 4-5 different zoos, including Brookfield and Gladys Porter.

The SeaWorld parks have walruses, as do multiple aquariums.
 
Lion tailed macaques, walrus, shoebills, pangolins, asian water buffalo, and albatross are all displayed here in the u.s.I’m not sure about the others. EDIT: sorry I was a bit late. Had to use the bathroom while writing this.
 
Lion-tailed macaque = Hattiesburg Zoo, Reid Park Zoo, San Diego Zoo, and probably some more
Asian water buffalo = Sedgewick County Zoo and probably some more
Albatrosses = Monterey Bay Aquarium
Gang gang cockatoo = N/A
Bandicoot = N/A
Greater bilby = N/A
Pangolins = Brookfield Zoo, Pittsburgh Zoo (bts), Turtleback Zoo (bts), Memphis Zoo (bts?), Columbus Zoo (bts), Gladys Porter Zoo (bts), and some place called Zoologica
Walrus = Indianapolis Zoo, Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium, SeaWorld San Diego, SeaWorld Orlando, and maybe some more
Shoebill = Dallas World Aquarium, San Diego Zoo Safari Park, and ZooTampa

New York Aquarium no longer has walruses; they were sent somewhere else.
 
I don't think there are any Gang-Gang Cockatoo on display currently, though I can find reference to at least 2 zoos having them in the past. I would be very surprised if there aren't any in the private trade though.

San Diego still has them? If so where?

Also, Asian water buffalos are very common in the US, especially among non AZA accredited facilities like drive thru safaris.

When did Zoo Tampa get shoebills?
 
But do any zoos have walruses?

I know Pairi Daiza (Belgium) calls itself a zoo and keeps walruses, but in the US at least Indianapolis Zoo has them. Is there a reason why you want to view a walrus in a zoo rather than an aquarium?

I thought one zoo had tarsiers and another maybe San Diego having saigas?
 
Tampa has Gang-Gang Cockatoo. If I recall correctly, unless its not there any longer.
