I am trying to visualize how wide that hedge is. Could someone tall like me bend over them and get my camera close to the main viewing windows?
 
@pachyderm pro It kind of reminds me of Berlin's otter exhibit. It seems quite strange, until one realizes that they are trying to preserve this cage. (For some reason).
 
I definitely did not see any Fishing Cats in this interesting exhibit, and I think that it would be quite a stretch to lean over and be able to touch the glass.
 
Here is a video of a cat using the underwater viewing to catch a fish. As you can see from people's faces reflected in the main window, glare is a problem with this design.
 
That may be an issue for photography, yes, but not for viewing. My best views of a fishing cat, ever, came from this exhibit.
