Ex Antwerpen Zoo.
That would be strange since in 2011 and 2012 no buffalo was born in Antwerp zoo.
Several Cape Buffalo including F Gitte were due to leave Antwerp due to incompatability with an abusive breeding bull (M Husayn). It turned out these are different individuals. Mea maxima culpa.
I heard last week Gitte and Hussajn will go to Dubai.
The Gibbon's came from Arnhem and Arcachon

It hurts to see Pairi Daiza's current developments, about 5 years ago this was one of my favorite zoos, but in recent years they have started collecting species and sticking them in unsuitable enclosures (sometimes temporary, but often not), this is another example.... The fur seals have moved back to their old enclosure close to the aquarium and a forest species gets a huge open enclosure with a huge pond and hardly any cover and only a very small land part....

They'll likely expand out of the right hand part of the park, the area I didn't visit due to lack of time when I went.
I'm not sure @Nisha, but they sure do seem to be headed that way, or at least every ABC mammal.

I'm assuming the article doesn't mention a date? (There are no numerical year numbers).
They do not. It says at near the end that they have only requested planning permission, and no date is yet known. But that the area I correctly guessed they would build outwards from was phase 1...
