I guess mainly larger herbivores, ungulates for sure.

Some zoos do it, however others don't. I don't think it's necessary for zebras, though it won't hurt if you do it either.

I have only ever seen one zoo do this in big cats, I can't say anything about bears as I have never seen a bear! :(

So zoos do and some zoos don't. It is probably up to your personal opinion.

As Chalico said, most don't use them for big cats or bears.

Thank you for the set, Azrael!

I've seen them used with deer, equids, camels, and antelopes.

Rhinoceros as well but usually they have large posts protecting the trees, not just mesh.
