Best murals / mosaics at zoos

[Onychorhynchus coronatus]

Yeah, it's next to a little plankton exhibit with a tube-shaped tank with some kind of pelagic shrimp in it (unsigned so I don't know what species) lit with UV light (which makes part of the shrimps fluoresce orange), and a speaker playing a short recording about the importance of plankton to reef ecosystems.

It sounds like a really impressive installation and very educational too.

Quite an interesting and impressive photo mosaic / mural at Zoorasia, Japan.

The images of a Bali starling, Asiatic elephant, okapi and tiger are made up of thousands of photos taken and donated by visitors.

Do murals inside the exhibits themselves count? Cairns Aquarium has this rainforest mural as a backdrop to their Emerald Tree Monitor exhibit

I believe the Hawaiian Hawk, ‘io, and Hawaiian Short-eared Owl, Pueo, are at the top of the mural as well.

Oh yes, so they are!

Thanks for pointing that out as I didn't make that connection.
