That's very interesting. I thought it would be more logical for big Zoos to have Species that are rare in Captivity
Exactly, I assumed the same. Even if you visit the zoo regularly, it doesn't feel that obvious.
Tbh, I stick around certain favorite animals more (hobby - photography, i can easily stay an half hour just near certain baboons,monkeys and meerkats)
Just one more example, and I'll stop doing this

The Fossa, Kirk's Dik-Dik and DeBrazza's Monkey (Brazzameerkat) really stand out in this one. Especially the Fossa..
