The big cats at the Great Bend Brit Spaugh Zoo this week include Bobcats and other earth movers as City of Great Bend employees work on the former wolf exhibit. Zoo Director Nicole Benz said the exhibit is being worked on and will hold coyotes in the future. “Coyotes are more agile than wolves,” she said, so the fence will be raised. They also like to dig, so the pen will be lined with chain link to prevent escape.
