Yeah, I'd call that teasing too. They do this in the Arctic ring of life in Detroit, supposidly for enrichment. I think it benefits the public more than the animals though.
It's like tying someone up and leaving the key just out of reach lol. |

Blijdorp had a similar exhibit with mongolian mice and pallas' cats
 The Pallas kittens seemed to enjoy chasing the mice along the glass and the mice didn't seem to care one bit... |

I have taken this video on last saturday and I cannot imagine that they have filled the indoor pools with soil within 4 days.....
I will post some pics today to illustrate the indoor enclosure.... |
