Good afternoon Hogle Zoo family, just letting you know that my general review for the largest zoo in Utah will be replaced annually. I just can't wait for the new master plan to arrive! I like how you are now up-to-date with standards in general, especially when it comes to the welfare of 100+ species currently in the zoo's collection. Fortunately this year, here are some realistic expectations I am to set over the decades. I will always miss the Hippos and Elephants, but thankfully there is plentiful adequate space for the smaller, but similar capybaras and tapirs respectively, the first ones in 40+ years sharing space with rheas, anteaters and our current new world monkeys. I do miss all those ring-tailed lemurs as well, and I still hope you can please add either those and/or raccoons in the future, whether they are in Wild Utah or the Diversity of life building, American ringtails also work. Some other former resident species I can realistically expect to return are the gibbons and guenons, which I can just see joining the modernized orangutan and gorilla habitats respectively, thanks to personal experience with multispecies habitats and Planet Zoo combined. Fingers crossed for the rhinos and shy to neutral antelope sharing space in a public flex habitat in the south pathway adjacent to the current savanna! In the meantime, thank you Hogle Zoo for finally bringing Discoveryland back! The duck pond may be empty for a good while longer, but the rest are full! A large portion of the same species, such as Kestrels, Spiders, Marmots, Bobcats, and Cougars have returned, and I visit my favorite animals there almost biweekly. Yellow the Ostrich and probably a couple guineas are currently the only original savanna animals, but the savanna's almost the same again! I would just add gray crowned-cranes and/or Egyptian geese back in the short term. I hope someday for more lion cubs, but thank goodness there will be more tiger and leopard cubs! The baby monkey and gorillas are so cute, and I am hoping for more baby orangs as well, now that Tuah is all grown up. The camels, horses, niche-shifted zebra stallions and rhino aren't bad either, and I hope more seals are bred again, but thank goodness for otters, eagles and bears! In the small animal building, we got red foxes year-round, but I can always visit the mole rats, crocodiles, tortoises and monkey skinks (AKA scaly capuchins), and I visit the imperial pigeon and hornbills ever since those poor parrots died. I do like the new hyrax habitat so far, I hope the Small Animal house is fully renovated soon. As for the red pandas, I hope they travel together in their entire habitat for a while before another cub is born, and those snow leopard cubs are adorable too! Please build more better aviaries soon, and add more meerkats later too? In short, I too find the new habitats and some old habitats that bit happier with every visit but find the South Pathway and Small Animal Building sadder since the iron aviaries were recently demolished and some species in the latter being phased out and hardly being replaced at all. The best news, however, is that we most likely have Zoo lights twice a year now and I will be happiest once the zoo is essentially the same as ever before, only modernized!
