Oh did I not explain that one, darn.

Basically there's this small jungle walkthrough area where your in a square room above a little rainforest set-up, with large glass guards around the edge so you don't just walk off the walkway and fall into the exhibit.

However because there are so many tall trees and random high up platforms(there's one in a corner just next to the walkway height wise) it's not exactly hard for agile creatures to get onto the path, since there's big spaces where the glass meets the tile floor(as in it's like a fence, so wooden fence post, big sheet of reinforced glass, another post, glass, post etc), the glass leaves a 20-30cm gap between it and the walkway floor. Then since there's rough wooden posts it seems some creatures can climb them. The ant-eater climbed up one corner and over the glass and just walked about lol, I think a guy came to try and nudge it back in but it was just hissing at him.
