One of the Very Poor Sun Bear Enclosures

Taken 6th July 2015
I find it fascinating that everyone focuses on lambasting the ABH when this is infinitely worse :p
 
This is one of a couple of areas I missed (the other being the pelicans) when I visited in April.

I'm glad I missed it, it would have soured an otherwise great couple of days. I can accept the ABH (just) on the basis they're looking to change it but this is beyond the pale.

I'm assuming the "it's temporary" defence is not applicable here?
 
I thought this was much worse than the ABH too.
The only thing going for this building is that it houses Himalayan Striped Squirrels (lovely things) and Short-eared Elephant-shrews in quite nice enclosures.
 
This looks very different to the Sun Bear enclosures next to the Crocodile House. Where is this?
 
But for three sun bears, whilst aesthetically dire there is a fair amount of space? Just because they're behind bars doesn't mean that they're having a sh*t time.

I find it fascinating that everyone focuses on lambasting Asian zoos when cages like this exist in Europe and America.... :p

is there more to the cage than what is seen here? Because this is not a fair amount of space.
