Snow enrichment items

[Kolikokoli]

In real Zoo's you will not find snow covered habitat for arctic animals. They will have the same dirt as everyone else that is local for that area. So having to cover x% of the habitat with snow in the game is very unrealistic. The solution could be "snow enrichment item" (like pool of snow, snow generator, pile of snow...), that would satisfy the need for snow for animals.

the idea started in this topic

I do also never cover Enclosures in Snow. It's too unrealistic.
Would be nice if we could get a Pile of crushed Ice for Animals. Seems to be realistic

Found a nice video of san diego zoo dumping snow enrichment in polar bear habitat daily and they are talking about how it even effects their behaviour, cacheing fish in there they catch. Quite interesting video.
