Cologne Zoo - Bear Grotto

  • Media owner Toddy

One of the Bear Grottos in Cologne Zoo, Germany. This grotto houses a sibling pair of 0.2 grizzly bears, quite a rare species in Europe. This exhibit is basically nicely furnished with dirt, plants and a large pool but unfortunately lacks any climbing equipment and is much too small in overall size for grizzly bears.

Grizzly bears are not known to be much for climbing. Considerably less than European brown bears.
 
Yes, I know. But it would still improve a rather small area by utilising some of the three dimensional space. And if food was to be hidden in tall and difficulty accessible places it would provide some more enrichment for the bears.
