But honestly, I would not enjoy this exhibit. It's kind of preachy, and actually I really do want to see the animals in exhibits that mimic their "natural" habitats, even if those habitats are from the past. That being said, I did visit this Vienna zoo a couple years ago and I was truly impressed. Lots of ancient architecture and a most impressive collection. I believe they're the only zoo in Europe with both koalas and giant pandas. No one likes going to zoos more than me. But honestly, I would not enjoy this exhibit.
