      Man, this is rough. And all the more so for not being objectively worse than some leading European zoos...

      Yup.And the polar bear is having sterotype behaviour, shaking its head and walking back and front in the corner.

      @FunkyGibbon You are correct, and I wonder how large those rusty-looking holding dens are...maybe just large enough for a single bear to turn around in? Who knows!

      Easily a dismal bear exhibit! And one that would require substantial remodeling at that! (Just to give background, the reason I give suggestions is so I'm not 'that guy' who constantly criticizes and doesn't give feedback. I am referring to the kind of person you see on Metacritic or just in general discourse). One idea I just thought of would be to remodel the existing grotto to look like a pebble/steep shingle beach with grass on the edges, providing a slow transition into crashing waves. Speakers would be hidden, eminating the calls of seagulls. Another idea (keeping the snow theme) would be to showcase a tundra in winter, in that the concrete floor would be razed in favor of grass, that is covered by man-made snow from a snow machine. Of course, this would be feasible in the cooler months, and would showcase to guests the natural ecology of the Arctic.

      Sad and small exhibit, yet definitely not the worst I've seen in this site.
