Trying to plan a one week zoo vacation

I didn't want to start a new thread for this, so I figured I'd ask here and hope someone with knowledge would see it. I am going to Cleveland and Columbus zoos Thursday and Friday, probably Thursday for Columbus for the opening of heart of Africa (all weather depending). I have heard different reviews on the Cleveland Zoo, some positive for its collection but negative for how some of the buildings and enclosures look.

My questions are:
1. Does Cleveland Zoo still have gharials? I have only seen one at DC a long time ago and love them.
2. How long does this zoo take to go through? (Not just rip through, but take pics, etc)
3. What animals does the rainforest building have in it?

I noticed that there haven't been any reviews of Cleveland lately so I plan on doing one for the site. I will also be doing one for Columbus too.

Thanks for the help!

It looks like half of the southern zoos I am going to will be the first week of June with the rest in the fall.
