I was at Ostrava Zoo last summer and was blown away by how different it is from other European zoos! That elephant enclosure is seriously impressive – I spent like an hour just watching them interact. Has anyone visited during winter? I’m thinking of going back in December and wondering if the animals are still active. Also, those underwater viewing windows for the bears – did you guys actually see them swimming? I waited forever and didn’t catch any underwater action. Oh, and what’s the best food option there? I tried one of the smaller cafes near the entrance but wish I’d checked out the main restaurant. Any must-see feeding demonstrations I should plan around this time? The zoo map totally saved me last time but I still feel like I missed some hidden gems!
