Thank you @Virtual Zoo Tours for sending the Javan langur and Flying Fox footage that made up for what I could not film myself (I got too excited switching lenses by the tree kangaroos and ended up breaking the important one!)

Unless I’m somehow missing something, with JungleWorld out of the way that now means every massive indoor rainforest in America has been featured on Zoo Tours. Here are links to each tour, have fun comparing and contrasting them. No I will not reveal which one is my favorite… yet.

1. Minnesota Zoo’s Tropics Trail:    • Zoo Tours: Tropics Trails | Minnesota...  
2. Brookfield Zoo’s Tropic World:    • Zoo Tours: Tropic World | Brookfield Zoo  
Henry Doorly Zoo’s Lied (LEED) Jungle:    • Zoo Tours: The Lied Jungle | Omaha's ...  

Yes, before you say it, I am aware the second floor in the Lied Jungle is open. I was already planning on returning early next year to film further, and I will add the bottom floor to my checklist.
