Lemur Exhibit (3 spp)

Whats the point of all that expensive netting and posts when its already a moated exhibit?

@DelacoursLangur No idea. It's been that way for many years.

More climbing opportunities for the lemurs, I guess.

Would it not make more sense to fill in the moat and then add the netting to give the lemurs more space?

Reminds me of Brookfield's snow leopard exhibit that also has a moat and is netted over.

@pachyderm pro Well, one would assume the moat was for the Madagascar Teals that were also signed here (I didn't include them in the title) since there's no water for them in the netting, but the netting excludes the moat. The teals were in the lorikeet aviary instead, unsigned.

I can think of reasons why they might have had to net it over, I just don't know what particular reason it was.
