mountain lion
Living Desert Zoo and Plant Ctr, Palm Desert
They had two zoos — one for native desert animals and one for European and African animals. We ignored the latter and went to the former. It was nice to see the mountain lions, wolves, coyotes, and all in their native habitat. We also walked through 2 aviaries. One of them held (among others) a California raven who was desperately trying to get out. He had a colleague on the outside who was trying to help him escape, and they would cry to each other and meet at corners of the netting top to try to make a hole. It was really very sad.
