You're kidding right? Hogle participates in Species Survival Plan (SSP) program for multiple endangered species including Snow Leopard, Amur Leopards, Amur Tigers etc. It is an amazing zoo with super skilled biologists and professionals in an incredible environment at the mouth of Emigration Canyon. Hogle is one of our gems and it's in the perfect spot. There is no way you could re-create or super-impose those environments downtown. Canyons, creeks, multiple hundred year old forest, etc. Have even been there? For crappy housing? Gittoutaheeea..

EDIT: Besides, those parcels you're talking about need to be our future MLB stadium. Heh.
