** The top of the tigers enclosure was covered in decomposing old leaves and debris. The top of the sheet metal roof could not be observed and could potentially degrade the roof causing it to be in disrepair. Please keep the roof of the enclosure cleaned and free of old leaves and debris. Correct by August 20, 2015 ** In the goats and sheep enclosure there were several strands of green hay twine scattered across the ground and it needs to be removed. The animals could potentially ingest the twine or get tangled in it. It was corrected by the exit interview. ** In the black bears enclosure there was a pool that appeared dirty and in need of cleaning. The facility stated that they clean the pools once a week. There are 4 bears in this enclosure utilizing this pool. The frequency in which this pool is cleaned out for the black bears may need to be increased to prevent disease hazards or illness of the animals. Correct by August 23, 2015.
