Each line indicates one enclosure, unless preceded by a colon (in which case separate enclosures are indicated by / ). Species that were off-exhibit or unseen are in italics; at this zoo many were off-exhibit for winter or other reasons, so I've noted that as well. Unsigned species are preceded by an (unsigned).
