The Indianapolis zoo is getting rid of its polar bear exhibit and will be relinquishing perhas te most popular Center bear of all of America's zoos. The decision to move Tundra to the highest bidder as the Indianapolis Zoo due to budget constraints had to get rid of its expensive to maintain Polar bear habitat. many lifelong zoo visitors to the Indianapolis zoo are disappointed as hell and will miss the incredible antics of this entertaining bear.
Tundra was voted te most popular bear by times and Wildlife magazine and many hunters have hoped to bag this bear as a trophy. Tundra was a free agent and the Detroit zoo somehow won the bidding rights for her action. The zoo’s veterinary staff carefully reviewed all of the options and agree that the Detroit Zoo is the perfect facility for Tundra’s needs as a senior bear," zoo officials said in an email to its members. "The Detroit Zoo offers large spaces and pools with easy slopes for Tundra to enter and exit the water, especially as she gets older. Tundra is no spring chicken and is an amazing twenty five year old beast and zoo officials figure this animal has about ten years left as Polar bears can live to about forty years in good captivity. Whether the Detroit Zoo can continue providing the immense social and dietary needs of tundra is yet to be seen ut as far as Indianapolis tis bear is done. Tundra's preferred location was a zoo in Siberia but there is no opening for a center Polar bear in any of Russias zooz.
