European Mink Exhibit at Madrid Zoo Aquarium, 26/05/11

Very nice to see some effort put into these little guys.

One animal was visible all day, sleeping or stirring under its shady shrub.

This is a very recent exhibit, i did not see it 2 years ago.

The signage was all keyed into the EAZA European Carnivore campaign from a couple of years ago so I strongly suspect it wsa built at that time. I liked that campaign - put the spotlight on a lot of species otherwise a little neglected by zoos (wolverines in particular).
