      That looks like a really nice display. Is there still a bison paddock outside the zoo in nearby Golden Gate Park (at least I think that is where it is)?

      I think you are talking about the San Franciso Zoo. Anyways the tunnel underneath the bison exhibit is very nice to the right of this picture there are viewing windows to see the bison eye to eye.

      Yes, San Francisco Zoo still maintains the bison paddock in Golden Gate Park (but far away from Brookfield Zoo =) )

      OOOPS!!! I looked at Geomorphs location (San Francisco) and mistakenly assumed it was a post about San Francisco Zoo. My apologies all around.
