I love all of the plants used in this exhibit, but what's with that odd looking cement apparition rising out of the center of the exhibit?
 
It is a rather clumsy attempt at a stump, isn't it? I do not remember if it looked better from the different angle of another viewing area or not.
 
That looks like a premiere exhibit - I can't believe it is in the childrens zoo.

(Not that I don't like kids - I really do - but usually childrens zoos have smaller animal exhibits so they can see the animals up close).
 
I wonder whether that stump (which I can almost see as a very weathered old juniper except for the way it comes to a point) is really disguising an enrichment feeder. All those holes may have a purpose.

It is an enrichment tree. It has a heated platform at the front, stairs at the back and plenty of nooks and crannies to place enrichment items.
