A superb exhibit, very clearly the inspiration for many other exhibits for the species (particularly Vienna and Chester). Also home (in theory) to Ring-tailed Coatis, but we saw none.

I'm glad that you like this exhibit, as I think that it's one of the greatest zoo habitats of all time. The naturalistic setting is brilliant, and that probably means zero stereotypical behaviour from the animals. Are there actually 3 spectacled bear/coati enclosures, all connected via hidden bridges? I seem to remember that little fact from Zoolex.
 
Yup, three enclosures - though we only saw bears in one (the middle one? Not sure now). Was a group of five though.
