Poor Tiger Exhibit

One of two exhibits side by side.

That is pretty depressing.

I'm a Brit that gets slated for thinking the Aspinall enclosures and other functional yet unattractive enclosures are decent, and even I think this is pretty bleak

This enclosure has since been torn down, and its last inhabitant, Zhanna has been moved to the Bronx Zoo's Tiger Mountain enclosure for breeding purposes.

What subspecies of tiger is Zhanna ?

@savethelephant Amur.

Looks more like a sub-par alligator enclosure. Pathetic for a tiger...

@JigerofLemuria Oddly enough the Brandywine Zoo displayed alligators in their old capybara yard last summer, and said yard has since been torn down (alongside the llama yard and some other adjoining habitats) for the new Madagascar exhibit, featuring ring-tailed lemurs, black-and-white ruffed lemurs, crowned lemurs, radiated tortoises, and potentially white-faced whistling ducks and guineafowl.

@Wyman I'm very glad that is so.

As for this tiger exhibit, this has been torn down and turned into a Nature Play Area/Wildlife Amphitheater for guests to enjoy animal presentations from any ambassadors scheduled for any day. In the future this area could be the new home for the zoo's tamarins with a connective trail between different flex habitats akin to Philadelphia's Zoo360.
