Lion Country

Waterfall in the enclosure-no lions in there today but an impressive structure
I was not saying that they (keepers) did not supply water just making a point on a freezing day that the water around the base of the waterfall was unfrozen and there for the lions if needed

I did not mean to imply you were. Only to prove that is is pretty pointless, that there is no benefit in the waterfall providing unfrozen waterfall.

As said before, I think we will have to agree to disagree
 
See, personally I think that the rocks are for more attractive when the waterfall is turned off!

I don't blame YWP for making an effort with the design - the lake/bridge layout is actually superb.

Yes I think we will but hey have a happy new year

Completely agree with everything put here
 
I find it amusing that people can even consider mocking this enclosure. The whole set up is one of the best big cat exhibits in the country! All 3 enclosures where also designed by YWP director and completed on a shoe string budget. I think YWP have done a bloody good job here and I look forward to seeing what they can do for the new tiger enclosure.

Don't get me wrong, I agree entirely. To my mind by far the best UK African Lion exhibit outside of the safari parks (and quite possibly the biggest too).

I dont think anybody has been 'mocking' the exhibit. It is a very good and exhibit, but I just find unnecessary waterfalls rather annoying.

I completely agree with this!
