Gila Monster Exhibit

See - I rather like this. Naturalistic inside the enclosure, so the animal is shown in context (for education reasons) and can behave naturally (for welfare reasons). Outside the exhibit, it's a proper zoo building. Quite an old and interesting one, by the looks of the design. No fake rockwork walls or anything, just a solid building. Very nice. Of course, a clever place will mix this style of exhibit with more all-out naturalistic ones to produce a diverse display. Only thing I would say; its hard to judge scale just from the photo, but looks like it might be just a bit on the small side for Gilas?
 
Indeed, I like this idea too. Not keen on the architecture here, but London zoo is similar and I think their reptile house is brilliant.

Not really my style here either, but it has character. And yes, London's reptile house is perfect example of the kind of thing I'm on about here!
