San Francisco zoo
A big disappointment at the San Francisco zoo today was that the tiger exhibit area was entirely blocked off, due to the mauling by a Siberian tiger of three youths (one fatality). (For me at least, it strains credulity that the tiger leapt the huge gap to attack the three victims with no provocation, seems more probable that an episode of “Jackass” occurred). Other exhibits for carnivores now have newly-installed heavy-duty chain-link style fences that preclude photography (unless perhaps you’re NBA-tall). What a downgrade...oh well.
On the plus side, if you’re in San Francisco, the new grizzly bear exhibit is the best at the zoo, and a really fun show with the two “twins” eating apples and carrots thrown to them today, and rubbing their heads inches away from visitors (on heavy duty plexiglass).
