Zoo Tours Ep. 35: Black Bear Falls || Zoo Knoxville

Right beyond the park’s gates is one of the greatest attractions you’ll find in any entrance - the Black Bear Falls at Zoo Knoxville. This quality habitat opened in September of 2000, and was designed to simulate the natural habitat of the nearby Smokey Mountains. Mist of the roaring waterfalls, shadows from the surrounding cliffs, and obstacle designed trees that over tower the walls turn this into one of the most carefully constructed bear enclosures around. Black Bear Falls is a multi-levels exhibit, covering less than 15,000 square foot of space. It’s complete with 20 foot tall waterfalls, flowing streams, three pools, along with three viewing areas to observe the American black bear. Including the most outstanding element within the entire zoo, a 40 foot long tunnel disguised as a fallen hallow tree that leads you into the heart of the exhibit. With small, side view portals that allow you to look at the bears as you’re in the tree. See all of this for yourself, in this sweet and simple episode of Zoo Tours, featuring the Zoo Knoxville for the first time.
