Raccoon dogs have a lifespan of 10 years and the Frozen Tundra tanukis Pom and Poko arrived in 2010 so think they got a different pair now

Yes they used to live at Frozen Tundra. The 0.3 at the Creatures of the Night show are quite elderly now.
Have they announced any long-term plans for the former polar bear exhibit?
Not yet. They are still looking at a couple of options.
What possibilities do you see for it, Zooish? Is it suitable for exhibiting a pinniped species? Does the zoo have any ambitions to get some other bear species in there?
My understanding is that they are looking at redeveloping the existing sealion exhibit rather than moving the sealions to the old polar bear exhibit. And as far as i am aware there are no plans to bring in grizzlies/brown bears.
So the old polar bear exhibit might be repurposed for something else altogther. I'll share more if I hear of more concrete plans.

Is there any chance that they will bring back the wolverines in the future?
I don't think so.

On the tram ride, apparently.
The former first Dhole exhibit and Bearded Pig exhibit along the tram ride have been combined and remodeled to house the Gaur.

Yes, I did not expect them to have a space for the Gaurs left! There were two individuals on display.
