Yes on Facebook it says reptiles from the indo pacific islands also some birds and mammals. I have heard possibly Komodo dragons and giant tortoises

There should be a map and rough list on the website (can't see then on my phone):

I can check for you later.

Another list is available on zootierliste:

When did they get the kinkajou and the genet and whereabouts are they in the zoo

I have no idea when they got them, but when I visited in July both species were off-display but were used in the night 'forest clearing' show.

Here's a downloadable map if you hadn't found it yet:
