Indeed the cache is sadly gone. We'll replace it with a new one on our next visit. Thanks to all for the feedback and interest, sorry it's taken us a while to address it.

Familiar with this cache since I found it some time back. During a recent outing to the zoo, I decided to take a peek in on this one. The area is completly "wiped" for renovations. I don't think the cache has survived the bulldozer.

The photo a few logs back, the cache was located on the bottom left of that right where the bare dirt spot is.

[editing to remove part of log - owner has disabled cache]

went to zoo today hoping I could find this cache. The area is still under construction but I was able yo get within 10 feet of it. From the looks of the place and the hint they mention, I believe this cache may have been destroyed in the process of the renovation going on here. Need others to confirm!
