This new North American themed exhibit complex includes a large American bison exhibit, a bald eagle aviary, a grizzly bear exhibit with underwater viewing, a polar bear exhibit with underwater viewing, another polar bear exhibit with den viewing, a shop called Bear Crossings, a counter service restaurant called Bison Prairie Grill, and an indoor classroom with views into the bison and second polar bear exhibits. It also incorporates the existing Wolf Woods exhibit for Mexican Gray Wolf, and acts as the entrance to the existing Salt Creek Wilderness nature trail loop.

It really is a great exhibit and very roomy too...I think it will always be the true star of the complex with which it is integrated.
 
I can remember walking away from Brookfield Zoo in 2008 and thinking that the 2-acre "Regenstein Wolf Woods" (as it was then called) was the #1 exhibit at the zoo. This great photo reminds me of what a truly superb habitat it is for Mexican gray wolves.
 
Sun, I wish I had seen more European zoos when I was there; I was in Brno for a day and all I saw was the Vila Tugenhat!
