I did take notice of this enclosure, and I saw the one of the Lynx, but it was under renovation and had a badly placed fence in front of it (the reason why I could see what was held in the enclosure.) So I didn't list it.

This concludes my list of species for San Diego Zoo. :)

(Coming Soon: Oakland Zoo Complete Species List. I know that I already did a list a while back, but I never finished it. The new list will be made in November.)
 
Something I noticed going through it again, there's no mention of Saddle-billed Stork. I saw one in the waterfowl pond back by Eagle Trail in late December last year, was it not signed or seen? There's a Saddlebill on the map on that pond.

There was no signage, and I did not see one, so my guess is that there isn't one anymore.

Thank you for that info, it was getting dark when I went into the aviary and I hadn't been on all the levels, so I may have missed a sign.

Black billed magpie seems like an odd choice. Are they representative of an extinct species there? Are the elephant species rotated or is it a mixed exhibit? The concept of that exhibit is interesting, for as much hate as it gets. It just seems that there are some odd species choices in it. Are the pronghorn of the Peninsular variety? Didn't they used to also have bison in this exhibit?
