Dating Los Angeles Zoo map

THEY HAD MARBLED CAT! Aaaaahhhh! I lived near Los Angeles Zoo and starting photographing it as an adult around 1989-90. It must have been some time before this because I think I would have remembered marbled cat (which I have never seen and is top on my list of unseen cats). However the physical layout of the zoo looks as I remember. I forgot to look - is China Pavillion on the map? If not it was pre 1984, if it is then it was 1984 or later.
 
Another look shows China Pavillion is not there. I have no idea the exact date. But they also list cheetah and I do remember a cheetah on one of the hillside exhibits when I visited as a child in early or mid 1970's. So it could be anytime early 70's to very early 80's. Sorry I cannot be more specific.
