I am working on some designs for new enclosures in a small zoo somewhere on the Mediterranean coast of Europe.
The enclosure pictured in the image below will house long tailed macaques but will also be useful for other monkey species. The three separate compartments all have tunnels (like small cave entrances) in the artificial rock. These tunnels lead into a satellite room which is an indoor area with a glass viewing window. Also there is a pool with a waterfall which macaques love. The zoo mesh is held up by long poles, the central ones disguised as gnarly old trees complete with hidey holes to put food items in.
I hope to give more updates on this project soon.
