Last month we blogged about our behind-the-scenes look at Chicago’s Brookfield Zoo’s soon to be open Great Bear Wilderness exhibit. We are happy to learn that the exhibit opened this week to rave reviews. The 7.5 acre exhibit is the largest ever built by the Brookfield Zoo and provides the very best in animal welfare, education, and guest experience.
The polar bear exhibit encompasses floor-to-sky viewing windows where zoo guests can peer right in to a polar bear’s world. Much like the Columbus Zoo exhibit, it has an underwater viewing area to see arctic mammals dive into an 80,000 gallon pool.
Check out the great video of Brookfield Zoo’s new exhibit!
