They are born at around 200 pounds and then gain 2 to 4 pounds a day. So the small ones are really young

The exhibit is enormous, both me and my wife noted how small everything looked given how big the exhibit is. I can ask how big the drop was but id estimate that that's a 15 feet wall

Is that the main exhibit area or do they have an outdoor one and this for when they're off exhibit?

It's all connected. This area is for breeding and caring for the animals, they have about 8 times this in outdoor space when it's warm enough for them. I'll post a map
