Zürich Zoo Zürich Zoo News 2021

I don't see at all how this new area could be 2.5 hectars big. Is the plan still to build Kongo between the children's zoo and the Lewa Savanna ? Because the place overthere looks really small.

Is that so??

;)

The zoo is building a new playground area at the bottom of the image, but still in the yellow part, so it would reduce the surface. The Dahomey cattles will leave the zoo ?
 
I don't know more than what the zoo write in their press release. Just wanted to illustrate that it isn't too hard to see, how the zoo might find 2.5 hectares space for this project.
 
Zurich Zoo have redocorated the Australia house as eucalypt forest. The perentie, shingleback, and Pilbara roch monitors have left the exhibit and, following the new master plan, will be replaced with endangered species: Cyclura cychlura figginsi and Savu python.

It looks amazing ! From what I see from the picture, it seems that the glass go to the ceiling now.
 
Wonderful! I would love to see some cohabiting species, for example echidnas. Echidnas apparently need much space for males following females during courtship, but rarely get it in zoos.
