Tapir exhibit - Buin zoo

Part of the tropical America area. Holding Brazilian tapir, southern screamer and some species of waterfowl.
I see that crashed Land Rovers not only appear in big cat exhibits, but also in tapir yards. It's becoming an epidemic! ;) I like it when the jeeps/land rovers are half inside an exhibit and half outside, as that's a cool setup to have little kids on one side of the glass and perhaps a Lion or Cheetah sprawled on the hood of the vehicle on the other side of the glass.

Agree with you... I'm usually not a fan of the "abandoned wild adventure camp" aesthetics, although IMO it worked quite well in Buin due to the vast human/cultural theming associated with naturalism the exhibits present. It makes sense, somehow here... Although I wonder how much resources went on purchasing crashed Land Rovers during the zoo's existance... Quite a lot, I'm sure!
