Corsac Fox exhibit.
 
Looking at the size of the doors into the house I assume it was for a much larger inhabitant. Take it the fox is more size appropriate?
 
I wouldn't want to see anything much bigger in this exhibit!
 
Neither would I!
Just thought that given Berlins history for cramming in species that maybe it was home to lynx/cougar/leopard etc etc in the distant (not so distant?) past.

And you are quite right. By now indoors and outdoors are not connected. Indoors are other small carnivores.
 
Thanks for the reply. :) Ithought so, I knew those doors were too big for a fox!
So any idea what this was originally used for? I've seen a video of a leopard at the Berlin Zoo and the cage looks similar to this this. Please tell me I'm wrong! :(

The current leopard cages are a similar style to this, but larger - if it's a recent video it wouldn't be this cage. If it's an older video, I can't say for sure, but it seems unlikely.
 
I saw it about 3 years ago, can't find it now though. It possibly wasn't this cage but didn't look a lot bigger than this, the leopard could cover the distance in a few strides.
