Lion Enclosure (full view)

This one houses a pair
This small enclosure looks as if it was patched together via duct tape and chicken wire! This tiny zoo (9 acres) is one that I've never visited and that's probably a good thing because the lion exhibits and Sulawesi macaque cage all look rather ghastly.
 
@snowleopard If I wasn't paying attention, I would have thought you were commenting on a British Zoo! ;):p

("duct tape and chicken wire!") :eek:
 
@snowleopard Sadly that's not far from the truth for most of their big cat enclosures!

I'm not going to lie, I was actually a bit nervous walking through a portion of the zoo, I was the only person around, and lots of these exhibits seem to have questionable containment strength at best. Couple that with a fairly healthy prey drive from the lions (the female at the front of the exhibit in this photo rushed the fence at me when I turned around a few moments before I took this), and it wouldn't be hard to imagine a motivated lion being able to escape and cause some havoc!
