Erfurt Zoo - Lion Savannah

The indoor exhibit for lions in the Savannah house in the Lion Savannah theme in Thüringer Zoopark Erfurt. An unusually spacious indoor exhibit for big cats.
July 2008

That´s nice! Also, I´m a big fan of glass walls that let lots of natural light into a building and make it possible for the animals to look out from the building. I´d like to believe that almost all species would be enriched by that.

Too many glass walls aren't optimal, either (danger of injury especially in flighty animals, overheating/loss of heat, more work for the staff to keep them clean...)-see Liberec Zoo...And about "natural" light: normal glass filters off quite an amount of the sunlight spectrum-not visibly for human eyes, but visibly (and important!) for other species, especially birds and reptiles.

Nonetheless, I too believe that the lions benefit a lot from being able to look out on the world from the two glass segments in this exhibit facing the outdoor exhibits.

Why not ask them?
