exhibit

Hey all! We're looking at revamping our Black-Footed Cat exhibit! Does anyone have photos of some good looking exhibits? Right now they're on sand and have several hiding spots (pots, logs, and some plants), but not much as far as elevation. Any advice would be great! :) Thanks!

Marwell used to hold malayain tapirs before the brazillian tapirs there now. I was just wondering if anyone knew any iformation on where they went, what year they left, Where there exhibit was at marwell, How many they had, Names,sex,age ect ect... Please comment thanks.

I was just thinking about some zoos stuck for size or have alot of 'ugly old zoo enclosures' if they could convert old zoo enclosures into something showcasing a different animal. Does anyone know any cool or unusual examples of this or any ideas of where they could do this?

Hi all! I'm doing a bit of benchmarking on elephant exhibits and I'm looking for some guidance on the best indoor exhibits around the world. Details as to size are always helpful. Also, I've got an image in my head of an unknown zoo that I swear I had a photo of, but can't seem to locate it...

A bulky 18lb Tasmanian King Crab will take centre stage in a new £100,000 feature at the centre, called (originally :rolleyes:) CLAWS. I realise that not everyone here is a fan of the sea life chain, but if you are near or about, go see this animal, a real rarity in Europe. Claws! exhibition...

I have compiled a list of links for zoos with elephants AND Google street view. Not all zoos have been mapped in street view by Google, the list is not complete but a starting point for those interested. Just click on the desired Zoo below and you will be taken to the Google street view...

Hello all- I'm new to posting on ZooChat, but I'm a longtime follower. This summer I'm thinking of building a scale model of an elephant barn. I was looking online (including ZooChat) for some plans of existing barns, but I can't seem to find anything. I'm interested in building a model...

When have you never seen a large crowd of people at the orangutan exhibit at your local zoo? These animals have a unique ability to draw attention to themselves due to their michevious antics and gentle nature. But I wonder if there are any noteworthy orangutan exhibits that demonstrates the...

Hiya! In the UK and Europe, which zoo's have binturong? Or any useful websites where I can find this information out? Thank you!

On this forum most people tend to rate an exhibit on multiple factors. My question is; What would the ideal exhibit look like? What makes an exhibit a great exhibit? In my honest opinion there are a lot of aspects who together make or break an exhibit. On what scale should exhibits contain...

Who do you believe will win an AZA Exhibit Award this year? Winners announced at the conference in Atlanta later this week.

Okapi Nevermind.

There wasn't a thread about the new exhibit, so I decided to make one. Here is an article I posted in another thread: After 12 years, zoo ready to build elephant habitat I also found a photo of the site plan: link is not working...but you could see it on the JaxElephant's quote. I've also...

Hello All, Im starting this thread mainly just to have an idea on what peoples opinions are and even what I should look out for when I visit zoo's! Sorry if this has already been done. Basically what I am asking is what are the best indivudual exhibits in the UK, yet with a twist, I want...

I have seen the use of primate walk through exhibits in a few zoos. For instance Henry Doorly and Washington D.C. Zoos both have Golden Lion Tamarins have not separation between humans and people. I have also seen lemurs been used in this situation. Besides disease going from one primate to...
