Thanks for the info that’s sounds brilliant you don’t have any idea about the binturong do you ?

Afraid not, imagine they might use the outdoors but they're use to a smaller space so it's unsure how they will take to such a large area plus they need to be properly integrated with the bears yet.

They had full access to the old tiger enclosure while they were in there: Binturong | ZooChat

Bear integration will be the major issue in the new area, I'd have thought!

Does anyone have any idea what is happening to the old cassowary enclosure now. It seems like not much progress is being made but I may be wrong.

 

[JoeDK14]

I was wondering the same about the Old cassowary enclosure I can’t think of any species to go in there either sure the zoo will get it finished soon though

I always believed they only had access to a small cut off section, my mistake.

Currently binturong integration is the problem, one was removed today.

Someone said on an earlier post there were 3 we only saw 2 on Fri, how many are there on islands now then ?

That was me.

Let's think. There were three, one has been removed. I'll let you work it out.

But if there were only 2 on Fri ?

 

[Fallax]

Maybe one of them was just in an off show part...

That's why i was asking in case all 3 had been seen

There is a plan for the old cassowary enclosure. A species is lined up to come into the zoo, but it is not a priority.

 

[Fallax]

I don't want to sound stupid but is there a place where we can know all of the zoos plans for enclosures and species and everything along those lines.

 

[bongorob]

I do not know of anywhere other than the Chester and Cheshire West council site. Even when plans aremade they can be, and are, frequently changed.

Anyway to link the part where Chester Zoo has some plans?

 

[bongorob]

Simple Search

search for Chester Zoo.

Please note that links to council websites are not always reliable. You can search for the site yourself, look for planning and go from there.

Likely you only saw two.

No. Unless the senior management want to share such information with you.

Does anyone know were the penguins have been moved because of the work being done to their pool and also are all three binturong still in the sun bear enclosure

Some working taking place in islands, just on the right after the wobbly bridge, don't know just maintenance or possibly something else, have said before would be good space for tree kangaroo
