List of Predator/Prey Exhibits

Nice concepts, especially the polar bear and pinniped idea! The closest I have seen to this type of exhibit as far as I can remember was a spectacled bear pacing backwards and forwards along the conjoin of the South American tapir enclosure at Chester Zoo licking his lips!

Allegedly South Lakes tried to keep Brazilan Tapir and Andean Bear together in the same enclosure......

Not allegedly, pretty sure there are photos of the mix here on ZooChat as well as photos of the scars on the tapirs backs thanks to the bears! That enclosure also held capuchins, coati, and I think Capybaras and ASCO at the same time as the bears and tapirs at one point. South Lakes also mixed paca and Giant Otters but then all the paca disappeared...

The NEW Zoo just recently built a predator/prey that is American Badger/Black-Tailed Prairie Dog. There are not yet any pictures of this in the ZooChat gallery.
