I visited the Zoo the last time about a year ago and not familiar with the newest changes, but one could imagine that it might be a confusion.
The guerezas and the ringtailed lemurs have each an walktrough enclosure on their own and the ruffed lemurs an island which can be seen from the guereza exhibit.
You can see the three different exhibits on the map of the zoo.
New species at Münster : An all-male group of 32 Feathertail gliders are on display.
Why all male?

The Sulawesi forset turtle ( Leucocephalon yuwonoi ) is a very rare species and in Europe kept only at Münster Zoo. Here the species was first bred in 2008.
The species produce normaly only one egg each year and at Münster they are very happy that this year already a second young has hatched and a third egg is still being incubated .

What is the plan of elephant breeding? They have Alexander the bull, old cows Tefi and Kanaudi and young cows Ratna and Corny. Both had calves, but unfortunately they were dead. No further breeding is in progress? Alexander is a relatively successful breeding bull. What's the problem?
New species arrived at Münster : 2 bobcats ( one from another German collection and the other from the Czech Republic ) have found a new home at Münster.

11 dice snakes (Natrix tessellata) were born behind the scenes. These snakes will be moved to the Botanischer Garten Oldenburg (Botanic garden), which next to plants also shows endemic reptiles and amphibians. Eventually this species will be visible to the public again in Allwetterzoo, as soon as their new enclosure is finished.
