Cleveland Metroparks Zoo's Asian Highlands Habitat Emphasizes Culture, Conservation & Vertical Space 

The Cleveland Metroparks Zoo broke ground on its Asian Highlands habitat last year. Now, ten months later, the new space is ready for its public debut.
The habitat, open to the public on Tuesday, June 12, offers zoo visitors close encounters with several vulnerable species, including the Amur leopard -- the most endangered cat in the world. Chris Kuhar, the zoo’s executive director, spoke with ideastream prior to the grand opening.
