I would change Cleveland Metroparks Zoo's Primate, Cat and Aquatics and Northern Trek.
Primate, Cat and Aquatics would become the African Rainforest, similar to San Diego and Columbus, with-
Pygmy hippo
Red river hog
Bonobo
Gorilla
Okapi
Black duiker
Leopard
Mandrill/drill
Some African birds
Northern Trek would be split into two. The first part would be renamed "Northern Wonders" and have-
Polar bear
Harbor seal and CA sea lion (separately)
Bactrian camel
Thorold's deer
Grizzly/black bears
Gray wolf (not Mexican gray)
I would halve the beaver enclosure and add river otters. I would bring back painted/softshell turtles and add enclosures for snakes, box turtles, salamanders, and frogs of eastern North America in the front of the wolf cabin.
The second part would be where the tigers and the rest of the bears are and would be called "¡Ay!" and focus on the wildlife of Puerto Rico and Mexico. A building would have Puerto Rican species first- coquis and Puerto Rican crested toads, and various bats, invertebrates, and herpetofauna of Puerto Rico in the building. Smooth-billed anis, parrots, and bananaquits would live in netted aviaries outside the building. The Mexican wolves would go to the Mexico part. Jaguars and Mexican wolves would have outdoor enclosures, followed by a building for small animals of Mexico, including Durango mud turtles, Durango chipmunks, bats, Mexican red-kneed tarantulas, and various herpetofauna.
