Edinburgh keeps Andean Cock-of-the-Rock, not Guianan.


Or at least, it did when I was there in March. The species is no longer listed on Zootierliste, but that website has been a bit erratic lately (see also Babirusa at Dudley - disappeared for some time despite still being very much there!).

ah. After I posted I did wonder if I had the species wrong!

Berlin got a male Andean cock-of-the-rock from Edinburgh last week (post #42, http://www.zoochat.com/109/tierpark-berlin-news-354500/index3.html).

I return your 'ah'. That would indeed leave Edinburgh (and British zoos in general) cock-of-the-rockless.

I think you missed out the word "fantastic" in your opening statement, between "2" and "new"!

Any information on where the bird(s) have come from?

No, but it could likely come from the other three zoos in Europe that hold the species.
