I know. We got really lucky in a zoo trade, they got our Cougars and we got their Hyenas. They do a sleep an awful lot of time but on cooler days they are up and about.

Our zoo is a pretty small zoo as well. Our main features are a herd of Bison that started giving birth to Albinos frequently with having 2 currently unless another one was born. We have a family of bears, 2 Hyenas, and twin sister Tigers. Though this year is a big year as a new welcome center and Small Animal House is opening.

I'd love a butterfly garden! We didn't have the Hyenas, or Tigers until a few years ago. The bears got pregnant and it started a funding operation to improve the zoo and get them an exhibit worthy of them. Then they decided to continue to update the Zoo eventually updating the Wildcat House which had bobcats and cougars and then they both got replaced with Tigers and Hyenas soon after. Then a wealthy couple left a huge inheritance to the area and named Irvine as one of the top places so after another year or two of fundraising enough money was made to redo the small animal house to make it a year round operation and add a small museum and welcome center to it. They also added a wildflower garden which has it's first bloom this year they posted.

They were up and about that day either this one or the other had torn a toy to shreds and was carrying it around. Brought it right up to the glass infront of me, like it wanted to play fetch. xD

That is true the glass here is very clear. The problem comes with reflections from the sun and scratched up glass in the tiger exhibit.

I know it's so cute! It's a bit shy, a bit curious, mixed with a whole lot of cuteness.

That must have been an amazing trip! I'd love to see some large predators in the wild and get photos of them! By wild I do not mean my yard. I have seen bears across the street running down the sidewalk.

Thank you so much buddy! They can really be cute. Once on a cooler day one of the hyenas had destroyed an enrichment item and brought a shredded piece of it in their mouth over up against the glass to show me. It's like it wanted to play fetch. xD It was all, "LOOKIE WHAT I GOTZ"

Lol, that's cute! Hyenas are funny. They look and act like dogs, but they're not dogs at all.
