Beautiful! I love all the cacti planted throughout. However, I'm not a big fan of keeping them on cement when indoors. Too bad they didn't opt for rubber stall mats or something softer that could still be hosed out.

How great is that? I love it, when we were there a few years ago we were dissapointed in all the cement we saw. But this new enclosure looks very well done.

Looks like someone or someones did a fantastic job on the remodel, I am sure they will be much happier now.

I'm telling you...the 'bedrooms' (that's what they call holdings at SD ZOO) are better than most other zoos' exhibits.

It looks very nice

How many are normally on exhibit and then how many off exhibit? Looks like the outside enclosure not only is eye pleasing to the humans, but also more pleasing to the tortoises.

next visit to San Diego will have to include a zoo visit.. beautiful habitat. Wish I had a bigger place to live (and was younger) I'd consider something bigger than RV - these torts are beautiful.
