Night monkeys, bats, antelope and several other species from the zoo are being shipped off to other zoos. Bronx Zoo officials say they're also closing four exhibits to close a $15 million budget gap.
The 114-year-old institution is the largest city zoo in the U.S. More than 2 million people visited last year.
