The Harpy Eagle (I Think there's only one) is in the birds of prey section close to the monkey house.
The MP sheep are in the mountain section, the bachelor groups lives in an eclosure facing the rest of the park, the breeding group live on the other side of the hill.
The various deer can be found mainly in the 8 paddocks close to the main entrance and on the way from the kangaroos to the monkey house. Other than that there are moose in the mountain section, Tufted deer and Pere David's deer are close to the musk ox and Przewalski paddocks

My top 10 (mammal focused, my taste for birds still needs to develop):
  • Southern gerenuk (antelpoe section, hard to miss)
  • Southern mountain reedbuck (across from the giraffes, not very eye-catching, but almost always visible)
  • Bawean deer ("Small deer row" between kangaroos and monkey house, last enclosure although there have been reports that they have moved to the exhbit with the nilgai across from the Chacoan peccary which closely miss this top 10)
  • Arabian oryx (antelope section right next to the gerenuks)
  • Masked palm civet (first enclosure in the row behind the reindeer, close to ABH)
  • Goodfellow's tree kangaroo (new walkthrough around ABH)
  • Southern tamandua (small enclosure close to the seagull aviary, not very showy)
  • Margay ( next to the civet enclosure, not showy at all)
  • Arabian Striped hyena (On left side on the broad way to the elephant house)
  • Golden takin (Corner exhibit next to Przewalski's Horses)
 
Sadly, one of the nicest species is off-display with no plans to ever move them on-display - Daurian Pika.

A pity, as they are very nice.

I've spend about 5 hours today at Tierpark. I loved the improved Alfred Brehmhaus, Monkey house, vulture enclosure, pinguïn enclosure , cheeta enclosure and prairidog enclosure

If the new elephant house , savannah and Himalaya area will be just as nice, Tierpark will be a top 10 zoo in Europa.
