The trouble with trying to come up with clever little intros for matches is that sometimes you have nothing. Like now. So I’ll cut right to the chase: Hanover, Munster, Yorkshire. Carnivores. This should be a good’un, I think.
I'm not an exhibit man, I'm not one for huge enclosures (I like visible animals where possible, not blobs in the distance, and I like small and unusual mammals... But surprisingly I'm going for Yorkshire here! Their carnivores are relatively ABC (giant otters and brown bears at subspecies level being the most unusual) but they have some amazing enclosures for polar bears and leopards, and rehoming the lions and brown bears is to be commended. Shocking, even to me, but YWP seem to come out on top but I'm open to persuasion, as always!
