Something I unfortunately did not note until after I visited: the zoo's last red panda passed away in April and the zoo's jaguar passed away in June, so the zoo is temporarily missing those two species. The former fossa exhibit is also under renovation and currently doesn't hold anything.

In good news, the zoo still holds at least half a dozen Parma Wallabies across 3 exhibits!

Also, the small walk-through aviary is not accessible due to avian flu; there also doesn't appear to be any signage inside.
