Florida panther #1

New Florida panther habitat, honestly, this is pretty bad. Note the water not being in the pond, all of the ponds in the new "Wild Florida" area were empty.

      I hope more plants are coming to this complex. Its extremely barren and open for the cats.

      Don't you see the lush foliage in this habitat? Like those stalks of bamboo... and those leaves... :rolleyes: (well, it *is* Florida, and plants do grow pretty quickly as evidenced by Zoo Miami's Amazon and Beyond...)

      @StoppableSan @nczoofan both true statements. Ironically bamboo is not a Florida plant...and without actually having plants in there to grow, I expect it to remain barren. While the dirt will undoubtedly attract weed growth, and that would at least be something, the remaining mulch substrate will repel plants from starting.

      That said, it is possible they are still going to landscape the habitat some, we can only hope.
