The Tiger Pit @ Whipsnade, circa 1930s
This is from a postcard. The Tiger Pit was adapted in 1947 for a pair of Kodiak Bears, who lived in it until 1984, when they were sent to Duisberg. It was very barren, just the concrete tiers, a pool, and a tree trunk. The pit was filled in and grassed over around 1989.
