Terrible enclosure. This whole area seems to be rather poorly designed. Dumb theming, random animal selection, and enclosures that are too small and/or not suited for the species they hold.

The rest of this zoo seems to be of such high quality... what were they thinking when they came up with the plans for this?
 
@ralph It's not bad at all for a pair of birds, really. The selection isn't random, it's the ambassador animals building. The exhibits aren't natural, sure, but size-wise they are fine, and they allow for some unique enrichment items that zoos in natural exhibits don't get.
 
Let's agree to disagree, I don't think this enclosure is acceptable at all and neither are some of the others, like the sloth and the lemus. Many enclosures seem to have a lack of hiding places.
The fact that there's just 2 penguins in here doesn't make it better. They should be kept in a large group.
 
@ralph I agree that some of the exhibits need better hiding areas.
What sloth? This building doesn't have a sloth.
 
Feels like a weird fever dream hybrid of JA BizTown and those zoos you find in shopping malls.
