European (Tea)Cup - HEAD-TO-HEAD: Tierpark Berlin vs Zoo Berlin (Temperate Forest and Woodland))

[TeaLovingDave]

As the title suggests, this one will focus on the TEMPERATE FOREST AND WOODLAND category - as previously, the match will last for three days and although discussion of your reasoning and provision of supplementary evidence is not mandatory (except in cases of a 5:0 vote) it *is* very much encouraged.

Moreover, even if one does not feel comfortable voting, please do ask questions, post comments relating to your opinions on the evidence presented, and generally-speaking get involved in the wider discussion!

Anyone wanting to make initial arguments here to get the discussion started?

What does the zoo have to offer? The great Panda exhibit for sure, brown bears, the two bison species. Anything else?

By chance, does anybody have an overview how the two compare in term of birds at this category? Probably the only match, where the TP stand a chance against the older brother.

Probably the only match, where the TP stand a chance against the older brother.

You say that, but so far they have almost enjoyed a clean sweep against Zoo!

 

[remar]

Actually i meant it is the only category, where they can compete regarding birds. (And after i thought a second time about this i would also add mountain and poles)

I have not voted yet as I'm not sure what each has that actually qualifies here. So far only 4 species have been mentioned for the zoo and nothing for TP.
I guess I will have to vote for the zoo!

Of the top of my head for tierpark Berlin, two species of bison in large enclosures count. Ural owl aviary, deer paddocks, tree porcupine. Red panda enclosure, takins? Dhole, Moose, northern yellow throated marten, pallas cat, musk deer and some more owls, stellar sea eagle. I can’t give a full breakdown yet as I am in France.
