Africa Live! Phase 2 The Expedition Continues
The San Antonio Zoological Society continues its expedition to raise funds needed for the completion of Africa Live! Phase 2. We have raised $4 million toward our $10 million goal. Last summer, we began construction of Phase 2 and plan to open the new exhibit in spring 2010.

Africa Live! Phase 2 will showcase a giant aviary filled with trees and colorful birds of every variety. The colobus monkey will perform acrobatic leaps with fluffy, long tails from tree to tree. Further down the trail, guests will encounter the mysterious “forest giraffe,” the beautiful okapi. A giant “termite mound” will provide fun for kids to crawl through, as they watch mongoose poke their head through the mound’s ventilation shafts. Wild hunting dogs will be next along the path, and guests will come face to face with the pack. Rock formations will become the playground to rock hyraxes, as monitor lizards lie in the crevices. All the while, pygmy falcons fly overhead watching the excitement below. Up the hill, the Baraza Café will offer guests rest, delicious food from the outdoor grill, and a grand view of the river valley and forest below.
