Tree-top walk - Underground room with roots, play structures and access to stairs leading to canopy, 2022-03-08

In the past the tree-top walk had a cleared educational set-up, starting with going down to the roots (hence why this room, which also used to feature models of badger and fox dens) and then climbing into the canopy, via the winding staircase of which the entrance is shown here.

If there's no more educational material, then it all looks a little dark and gloomy these days.
 
@snowleopard It is pretty dark and gloomy, and the purpose of the roots seems lost now. I recognize that some of the educational materials (especially the taxidermy displays that used to be there) were quite high maintenance, but I regret that the tree-top walk is now in no way used for education. I don't object to some play/adventure elements, but I find them a bit excessive in in this area now, and I wish they came up with another way to use the educational potential of the tree-top walk.
