As I mentioned above, and as can be seen in the video made by the zoo, the tigers do have outdoor access. There are small separation/holding areas that run between the house and the main exhibit. Each pen is probably a similar size to the Malayan tiger separation area at Hamerton, which you'll be familiar with, but probably twice the height.

Thank you, yes. The issue is that the new regulations clearly require all big cats to have to have 24 hour access to ALL areas of their enclosure, and NOT be rotated in this way.
This will be enforced at a zoos next interim or full inspection, so no zoo has more than 3 years to comply and many have much less.
