Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden Cincinnati Zoo News 2018

Don't worry. As a fellow young member, I can see that sometimes it seems that people are judging my comments, but they are just pointing out errors and mistakes you made. If it genuinely seems like the member is attacking you personally, then instead of replying a bit big, just report the post, and staff will take a look.

Oh. Ok. Sorry, I’m still learning the rules on zoochat.
 
I'm going to the zoo on Monday, does anyone have anything they want me to find out for them?

Is the former Fossa exhibit home to the or a Bobcat? I constantly have a kid spam my videos with jumbled nonsense in forms of updates. This legible one reads, "Now the foosa is now home to the bobcat". I was wondering if this is true?
 
No, the pandas were not out, and the former Fossa exhibit is actually the home to the Pallas Cat, as many of us know. Other updates!
1. Emu are temprorarily off display.
2. They replaced the typical CIncinnati style signage in the Reptile house with some orange-green colored signage.
3. Crocodile Skinks are now on display in the Reptile House.
4. Pottos in Night Hunters are now gone, they are all in Jungle Trails, and I think that the bamboo lemur (which has now disappeared, no signage, no nothing) will be in Night Hunters.
5. It seems that Renji, the female snow leopard at the zoo is now pregnant. They started hanging up love stuff for Nubo and Renji.
6. The Leafcutter Ants are gone in World of the Insect.
7. American Black Bears have now left the zoo, marking the beginning of the More Home to Roam campaign.
8. The Mexico exhibit was closed for renovations.
9. The armadillos in Night Hunters are now in the Children's Zoo for vacation.
10. Gray Fox exhibit in Wolf Woods is being renovated.

Wow, maybe they are getting the Polar Bears a new home sooner than we thought, possibly with the potential Polar Bear pregnancy (the sooner those grottoes are torn to the ground the better).

I think if there are cub(s), they may use the former black bear exhibit when they go on display. Or rotate with the male adult polar bear. However, I do not think any construction will be done until its confirmed if there's a polar bear pregnancy. They are starting to make the area a quiet zone and the noise would bother the female, Anana, if she was trying to den and she may end up losing the cub(s) from stress.
 
Does anyone know what happened to the Pesquet Parrot and Golden Conure?
The Pesquet parrot was last display in the separate cage by Australiasia and was taken off display permanently at least 5 years ago. The conures have to have just disappeared no more than a year ago.

I think you mean 3 years ago, it was there in 2015. Do you think the Pesquet Parrot died?

I meant 5 but I was purely basing that on the last photo I took of it - so that isn't always an accurate way to find out. Could've died, I know it was in there for quite some time but I also know what they just didn't have a proper exhibit for it. They actually used to free fly in the South America aviary but I was told it kept attacking guests.

I wonder why they would let it fly in the South America aviary when they have an Australasian aviary....
 
Episode 34: The Wings of the World at the Cincinnati Zoo
A Celebration of Flight


What was once the zoo’s original Reptile House back in 1937, is now a diverse display of living colors that paint the world’s sky. One of the country’s smaller but finer and atypical bird houses. From song birds to seabirds, you’ll find a collection that represents seven realms of the world. Beginning with the humid tropics of the Americas and ending with the polar regions of the south. Lifelike murals and lavishly planted aviaries emit a naturalistic environment at every corner. Follow me and we’ll begin this celebration of flight in the Wings of the World at the Cincinnati Zoo.

 
Is the exhibit still under renovations?
No, I didn't know it recently was. Recent as in within the last week, not including the building's major renovation.

Edit, just read all of your last update. No, nothing was changed and the birds are back on display.

That's odd that they changed nothing...
