I thought this was the sun bear exhibit?

Oh yes, you're right, it is for Sun bears. So the best Spectactled Bear exhibit is at the Phoenix Zoo.

I remember because I saw this exhibit on Animal Planet's "The Ultimate Zoo".

Nevertheless, a Paradise for Tropical bears. Do you know the sun bear exhibit at the Berlin Animal Park ?

No, I've never heard of sun bear exhibit at Berlin Animal park.

The best spectacled bear exhibit on the planet is arguably the one at the Zurich Zoo (which they share with coatis), but the Oakland Zoo's sun bear habitat is also very impressive. The sheer size of the enclosure must make it difficult to spot the small bears.

And the pic does not show the whole exhibit. There is actually another big portion to the left of the pic.

@mstickmanp. I've posted some pictures of the Sunbear exhibit at the Berlin Animal Park, so now you can compare this paradise for sunbears with a black hole for sunbears...
