What happened to some of the animals including Einstein? I just went to the zoo today for the first time in a while and it seems that Einstein's place is gone, the prairie dogs were gone, and even Penguin Rock is gone. Can you please tell me? Thanks

Einstein is still here and doing well! She and her other Bird Show friends are living in other parts of the zoo while construction of our new Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Campus is ongoing. And that same construction required the removal of the prairie dog and penguin exhibits, both of which were past their prime anyways. The penguins now have nice, new digs at Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies.

I believe he went to New York. I believe is back now.
