Beardsley's is MUCH better, although Potter Park does have a lush, green wolf habitat. At the Connecticut zoo (as you know) there are two exhibits and red wolves and gray wolves can be seen via an air-conditioned building with lots of tall glass windows that make for excellent views of the canids.
Gregg Dancho said in 2006 when WOLF opened that "We feel very strongly that this this is the way we should be looking at future exhibits for your zoo", which if true, Pampas Plains should be great. Thanks for all the photos from your roadtrip snowleopard!
