The zoo has just opened a one million dollar cat habitat for jaguar, bobcat, puma.

The zoo's existing cats were moved, a couple new ones were added, and they are about to receive a pair of orphaned cougar cubs. The cubs are being transferred from Oregon Zoo, which runs the SSP for cougars and usually receives orphaned cubs from state wildlife departments before shipping them off to other zoos.
